“ To
capture people, wildlife and landscapes and the interactions between them in
the light of a world in transition is to encapsulate an inimitable moment which
will never again materialise. My own 'take' as a geographer photographer!
Born
in the City of Derry in Northern Ireland and still have inextricable links to
my home country. Since leaving I have lived in England, Singapore, Togo, Italy,
Ethiopia, Brazil and most recently in Ireland. My photography, together with
travel, have become two of my life’s passions and they in turn are an integral
part of having studied Geography at University and taught it in international
schools. My photography focuses on culture, landscapes and wildlife; images
which reflect a spatial and temporal journey through life.
I
believe fully in the concepts of sustainable tourism and development and in
trying to support a perspective which enables a greater harmony to exist
between people and their environment. I often use my images to educate or
enhance the knowledge of others. This has promoted not only my own areas of
interest but also a genuine interest in travel to others. Considered
reflections may be used to market and to disseminate and promote acquired
knowledge in a stimulating way. To record an image digitally or on film
certainly helps to bring the reality of such experiences to life.
I
have published images in magazines, calendars and cards and presented to the
Royal Geographical Society. Images have been used for educational purposes and
I have exhibited in Ethiopia and Ireland. I have also reached the final of
travel photographer of the year (TPOTY) in 2010 and 2011.
