Wildlife/Animals nominee

Thick fog lay heavy in the valley, reducing my world to a circle of a few metres before blurring and disappearing altogether. The air, still and breathless, muffled the splintering of grass underfoot as indistinct rounded shadows slowly ghosted into sheep shape and dark ovals in the grass marked where they had lain before silently moving away to maintain a cautious distance and wary eye. Almost imperceptibly the eastern sky began to flush a burnt orange and the sun crept into view.

A self professed ‘eclectic photographer’ I do not limit myself to one particular genre or style although my preference is for black and white photography, focussing on the elemental and simplicity of form.

I have reached the final stages of a number of major photography competitions which has seen my work published and exhibited, as well as general publication in B+W Photography, the Sunday Telegraph, BBC Wildlife Magazine and QWeekend (The Courier Mail, Queensland).
