About me
Aspergic, reclusive, obsessive, compulsive, insular, focussed, driven, perfectionist.

I like to keep things plain and simple. Photography ends when the shutter is fired. Photography should be about what you see in the finder and only constrained by chemical and physical processes and not digital virtual un-reality.

I hate all this Photoshopped, virtual fakery that masquerades as 'photography' when it is in fact digital art. It seems that the real world isn't good enough any more.

There is no story behind what I do, it's just not important. No emotion, no agenda, no message, no psycho babble, no pseudo-intellectualism. It's all about texture and light and making nice pictures. Nothing more.
