My home. Photographer. Civil Engineer.
This morning I spent a few hours in the glorious surroundings of Tile Wood near Rayliegh taking photographs of people taking part in the Bluebell 5 - a 5 mile trail run through the Little Haven Nature Reserve raising funds for Havens Hospices. I was undecided which event to cover as there were a few …
At very short notice - like 3 hours - we went to see Paul Weller at Southend's Cliffs Pavilion last night. Needless to say he was brilliant. Going was extra special as the tickets made an extra birthday present for my missus for Tuesday who last saw Mr P at the Cliffs on the farewell …
Once again I took my trust Nikon out yesterday into the cold and mud - but thankfully sunny - Essex countryside to photograph friends old and new as they ran around a muddy field or two. On this occasion it was the 3rd running of the Hadleigh Legacy 2012 10K race organised by Castle Point …
My photography has ramped up considerably in 2014 and much of it has been taking photos of local sporting events and primarily parkruns at various locations.

David Gray made his first trip to play in Southend last night and I was there with my daughter Liz to see the maestro in action. I’ve been a fan for a fair while although its been a while since I’ve seen him live – last time was I think for Hold the Line tour …

Last weekend I had a go at photographing the fireworks on Southend seafront. It was fun and spurred me to try again and improve from the lessons learned. You can read about that experience here. So I head down again this evening and had another go. The weather was much better this evening - dry and …
