About me

In my day job I work on a Search & Rescue helicopter in NW Scotland. During my 23 years here I've worked with many skilful people and we all work as a team. We also work hand in glove with the other emergency services; Coastguard, Auxiliary Coastguard, RNLI, Police, Fire Service, Ambulance & Mountain rescue teams who do wonderful work.

I have no aspirations to become a professional photographer and I'm not pretentious about my images but I've had this increasing desire to show my work online, hence this site.

I've taken to black and white in a big way since the back end of 2009, it's become my favourite style but I don't limit myself to that, I still do the occasional colour and popped images and I see a photograph in everything, though not everything comes out as seen by my eyes!

At the moment you can't buy from this site and I don't have all my images uploaded but I have a Flickr account (see links section) so if you see anything you like there contact me and we can come to some arrangement.

For my printing I use a small lab just outside of Aberdeen in Scotland, if you require an unframed print then I can arrange for it to be printed and dispatched straight to your door.


I'm open to suggestions or criticism about my work or my site so I'd be interested to hear your views.........good or bad, especially if I've made errors on the site.
