| Main areas of interest | |
Landscape Photography fulfills most of my interests. I am fascinated by everything connected and associated with landscape, and particularly with environmental issues. I also love art and music, especially in how they can enrich and inform photography.
I love to walk and climb mountains, and have a passion for wilderness and wild landscapes.
I am still a keen cricketer! (Probably not wise at my age)
