Me…..
I grew up on the Isle of Man but since the early 1990's I have been living in Aberdeenshire in the north east of Scotland. Nowadays, I am based just outside of the eastern edge of the Cairngorms National Park making for easy access to the hills via Ballater, Braemar and Aviemore. When not at work I am often found away from the crowds hiking and looking out for ptarmigan, or on the coast watching out for gannets.
The first camera I owned was a Kodak Instamatic followed by a Praktica MTL-3 35mm film camera along with a Bell & Howell Super 8 “movie machine”. After a time away from snapping I became inspired into taking pictures again as an opportunity to capture some of the sights when out and about hiking and travelling. Always eager to travel - and I consider myself to have been very fortunate to have visited most of the continents and many of their countries - nearly seventy at the last count - through work and holiday. There are, of course, still umpteen places that I still would like to visit.
