In reverse order perhaps I’m posting this image in a small series I’ve named ‘Eastern Princesses’. As mentioned in my recent post of the same name I seem to have acquired a small collection of Asian women in beautiful frocks along mine and Bill’s travels. From wedding dresses to the purely cos play avant-garde, these ladies know…
The wonderful thing about having a big ol’ zoom lens is that you can get a bird’s eye view of interesting cities like Rome. It helped somewhat that I was already several stories up in the air when I took the shot. No, I’m not actually a bird. I was in fact standing at the…
I created multiple version of this image, all of which I think have merits as final prints. Below are my favourites of the batch. Bill and I discovered when we arrived in Rome at the very iconic site of the Colosseum, that it really wasn’t quite what we had been expecting. Not as we had…
It’s a personal challenge of mine to take an image and to try to find the art in it. Often I’m trying to recapture a sense of what I felt when I took the original shot, as well as trying to create something new and exciting. My objective through photography is to portray the…

My eyes are ever kept busy. High fashion mannequins keep…

All of these photos were taken at the same spot on the third level of Altare Della Patria in Rome, Italy, October 2016. It was sunset over Rome’s seven hills and the view was spectacular.
Travelling across the Laguna from the Lido to St. Marc’s Square. Venice, Italy, October 2016. In the last month and a half I have travelled a lot. I’ve flown to Europe twice in that time and got stranded in Iceland for a night when the airline made me miss my connecting flight back to the…
