For
me Photography has been almost a lifetime hobby and I have
explored many aspects of picture taking and processing over
the years. In more recent times I have like most people
moved toward digital imaging and hope to demonstrate my
efforts here. I use all Nikon
Digital SLR cameras, currently I am using Nikon D200 pro-am
and D2x professional camera bodies with a selection of auto
focus VR Nikon lens ranging from 18mm up
to 400mm which of course with these digital SLR cameras
there is a 1.5 focal length ratio which equates to a
range of 27mm to 600mm, in addition I also have a 1.4
times converter which can be applied to any of my lens
lifting the effective top end of my range to a massive 840mm
focal length.
I do also still have my Nikon 801s SLR film camera which I
use primarily for taking 35mm slide film. In addition to
camera equipment I have a good selection of other equipment
including Tripods, Nikon dedicated flash, filters, etc.,
added to which I now have my own small well equipped
STUDIO (click for info) . Of course now being in the
digital era, central to my processing is my PC with a variety
of software including Adobe Photoshop CS5 software, with Epson printer
and scanner comprising the main hardware package. As well as
photography I have had a keen interest in computing since
the late 70's so today these two interests have become as
one.

I took early
retirement a little over five years ago having worked all my
life in the Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Industry,
resulting in my now being able to devote much more of my
time now to my Photography.
Prior to my
retirement as Product Manager I quite often produced product
images for use in PR and company promotional material. A
couple of typical such images illustrated below.
 
I am now utilising
the skills developed in my long time hobby on a more
commercial basis now by offering a comprehensive
photographic service in the South Notts. area by taking on
various photographic and digital imaging assignments
as indicated on my "PROJECTS"
page.
Since establishing my home based
STUDIO I have now
tended to mainly concentrate on my studio work ranging from
simple passport pictures to portraiture, children,
family groups, product pictures and model portfolios.
