Girl On A Bike Photograph

I was born and raised in Hampshire , England. In 1989 I came to Liverpool and have stayed ever since ( I only came for a pint of milk) It is a city rich in history and culture and is full of diverse, open hearted, humourous people . Indeed many of my photographs reflect my love for the city and it's people. I have been interested in photography and art for a long time I see the camera as a tool to make visible what is usually the unseen inner experience. The process of taking a picture activates a more subtle awareness, which expresses more of what is felt. For me seeing and finding pictures really helps to restore a sense of balance and meaning, so often lost in our everyday, sometimes chaotic lives. Whether generally celebrating the play of light, candid shots of people in everyday situations, framing texture, shape or colour, or simply finding beauty in unexpected places. There are pictures everywhere, just waiting to be discovered. This is what fires my passion and makes me want to grab my camera , go out, and feast. My eyes and heart, open to the widest aperture. My photographic journey is a long ever evolving voyage of discovery which allows me best to match what is going on inside with what is happening on the outside. My favourite pictures reflect this together with my particular interest in candid, unobtrusive picture taking which is atmospheric, abstract, painterly and dream like in nature.
