I am originally from the UK, have lived in Denver, Colorado, for the last 25 years, and have been fortunate to travel extensively, visiting 39 countries and 45 US states so far. I love to try to capture interesting images of the world around us, including landscape, wildlife, cityscape and travel shots. I enjoy combining genres and in particular have a growing number of "animalscape" shots that combine wildlife and landscape elements in the same image. As a technologist in my day job, I like to push the boundaries with the latest technology developments to get new types of images. Recently I have shot a lot with "6K photo mode" on my Lumix G9 camera, which lets you capture 30 frames per second of 18 megapixel images, and this approach has delivered a lot of images that I couldn't have got with traditional approaches.

I once read an article that said that to improve your photography, you should spend as much money on education and training as you do on equipment, and I have tried to follow that guideline. I have done workshops and classes with a number of leading photographers, including a bald eagle trip to Utah and several birds in flight workshops with wildlife photographer Rob Palmer, a fall colors workshop in Telluride with renowned landscape photographer John Fielder, classroom workshops with Elia Locardi and Trey Ratcliff, and most recently a day's private workshop with Audubon Grand Prize winner Steve Mattheis in Grand Teton National Park. I learned things from all of them, as well as from the many local photographers and friends who I shoot with. And I mix in my own ideas and new techniques too.
