Many years spent shooting 35mm in many places and events.One day I will digitise the back catalogue! (one day.
) Whilst not a professional journalist my photography has been documentary and travel across Europe and the ME.Most of my published writing over the last two decades has been in technical magazines and conferences.In the 70's to mid 90's it was in travel and adventure magazines.
Now due to circumstance I am in a position to be more of a part time photo journalist.I have had pictures published in several national, regional and local UK newspapers.Also the BBC TV news.In addition I have had pictures used for editorial in a number of other magazines, web sites and marketing.
