Just a few shots from my trip to Ireland in the summer of 2013. Shot using a stunning Nikon 85mm f1.4 (manual focus) i was pleased my dodgy eyesight was up to scratch! 
The use of a Lastolite gold tri grip reflector made a massive difference to this shot – i must buy one!
I saw this old chap setting up in a derelict shop window having a quick smoke before he started. I got two shots, this is the second, i chose this one as i liked the eye contact as he hear the first shutter go.
Having walked through here many i time it had struck me how this represented a refuge of despair, there are often homeless people here taking shelter, but as i saw this guy walking i was struck with the idea of hope. From every despair there is hope, which has been reflected in the subtle post processing.
I would like to say there was something more than just colour here that attracted me, but there wasn’t
Shot in London 2012, I nearly missed this guy, as everyone walked past he just blended into the cityscape. I love this shot for the stillness of the young boy, the hustle and bustle and of course, the ‘invisible’ part of society.
There is something great about this time of year for photographers, the changing of the seasons brings with it some great colours to catch, with the light usually excellent (provided its not raining or grey). There is something about the moisture on the ground that really makes the landscape come alive. I went for a walk and grabbed a few snaps, mostly on film, so those will have to wait for another day!
I saw this snail cheekily hanging on to the trunk of the tree
Conkers on the ground reminded me of my childhood on the South Downs, searching for the very best to take to school to challenge my friends!
Whilst out on a drive i saw this
