I retired from teaching in 1994 because of asthma and stress and took an interest in computers in the days of Windows 3.1 when the system had more crashes than a stock car race. It took my mind off my asthma and stress, however, and I started to link my photography with my PC. I was soon scanning my negatives and slides and editing them in Photoshop 4. I always developed my own slides and negatives; no special room needed just a developing tank, changing bag and a few chemicals purchased in kit form. I then managed to save up for a DSLR, so the chemicals, flasks and tank are gathering dust in the garage. In the late 1990’s I joined a local photographic club, ‘Formby Photo Group’, and remained a member until Covid when my wife was diagnosed with Bulba MND. I still try and take photos in the little free time I have, and hope to link up with the Photo Group. My wife is very brave in battling against this disease and still manages to do light housework, which she insists on doing, but she cannot speak, eat or drink. I give her medication and nourishment through a Peg directly into her stomach via a 60ml enteral syringe six times a day. 

In the gallery I have a series of photographs of people, places, landscapes, nature, flora and fauna, that I have taken over the years. If any catch your eye I can provide a high resolution print up to 20" x 16" (50 x 40 cms) or panoramas any length 17 inches wide. Prints are produced on Epson's latest 12 colour A2 Printer with non-fade pigment inks. An A3+ print 329 mm x 483mm(19 x 13 inches) on heavy glossy paper 270grm costs £15. The above panorama is 33cms x 105cms and was taken around Ludlow,
