"Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you did not do than by the things you did do. So, throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." (Mark Twain)

Dissatisfied with the status quo of the conventional life and a 'sensible job' I have taken a leap of faith, to explore, to dream, to discover.

I have a curiosity about people, cultures, landscapes and nature; a love of beautiful atmospheric images; and photos that are more than just an image, but a picture that tells a story, pictures with a soul that perfectly capture a moment in time and is capable of conveying and evoking emotions.

I can't confess to being an expert in these things but I can be sure that I have a commitment to reawaken my creative side and a determination to take every opportunity on offer to learn new skills and try different things.

I don't know where this journey will take me but I look forward to each step along the way. I believe in taking risks in life, in following your instincts, and the ability to create and follow new paths. Maybe one of these steps may take me to Oman?!
