Buy prints/posters of landscape photography from: the Brecon Beacons, the Black Mountains, the Welsh Marches, the English Lake District, the Scottish Highlands, the Burren, County Kerry, the Swiss Alps, Haute Savoie, and Norway.

Mountains…

…inspire in me what the Welsh call “hwyl a hiraeth”, a sense of belonging, and of something missing when it’s not there. At times I feel like something is calling me to the mountains (sometimes even specific ranges, like Snowdonia), so I’m lucky to live in the Brecon Beacons, although at times I just need something…bigger. I hope I bring that to my photography.

Wild Places…

…ok, so not entirely wild places, most places I go to are managed in some way, but I mean somewhat remote, unsanitised, possibly even a bit unkempt. I look for colour, seasonality and dramatic lighting.

Water…

…in all its forms; lakes & reservoirs, rivers & waterfalls -especially waterfalls-the sea and ice all hold a certain fascination for me. I try to capture its movement and its reflective properties (often to the despair of my companions), and will often go to great lengths to get that shot.

The Gallery

This gallery features landscape photography from around the UK, Ireland, the Alps, and a few from Norway, with the bulk coming from the Brecon Beacons, Black Mountains, Snowdonia and Wales generally. Increasingly you’ll also find a few macro/nature images as my tastes, ability(/technology?) and activity levels have changed. All images on this site are available to buy as prints, either directly from this site or through Folksy. Naturally, the printed image is at a higher resolution, and doesn’t have the watermarking.

Please enjoy my work, and if you feel so inclined, maybe you’d like to purchase a print or two…

On my Gallery page and through the Posts section you will find a selection of what I consider to be my best work, and the most recent. The Posts will be an opportunity to see the photo on its own, with a bit of background, either to the location or the photo itself.
