My Journey

I started taking photos as a child with a hand-me-down old Kodak camera that was my sister's. It took a 125 film cartridge. At first it was simply a means to record events, places and people, but now I find excitement in trekking, usually by bicycle, through cities, small towns, rural communities, abandoned industrial sites and old buildings. The image above was taken a hike around a farm where I was staying overnight. My photography is a journey through the overlooked and forgotten corners of our world. With a camera in hand, I explore cities, small towns, the countryside and abandoned industrial sites. I am drawn to places where history, memory, and mystery linger in the air. I am fascinated by the interplay of light and shadow, the textures of weathered brick and rusted steel, and the quiet resilience of nature reclaiming man made spaces. Each image is an attempt to capture, not just what I see, what I feel: nostalgia, wonder, and a sense of connection to something larger than myself. Through my lens, I invite viewers to pause and reflect on the beauty found in decay, the stories etched into forgotten walls, and the drama of everyday moments. For me photography is a way to share the excitement and beauty of the world and express my own unique view of it. It's an art and a powerful communicator.
