My Gear
I’m currently in the process of getting ready to travel to the Philippines on my first assignment in 2012. I wouldn’t normally submit a post like this but there are photographers out there who are interested in the gear you take when travelling abroad. So here’s a list of my main equipment, of course there’s [...]
Sri Lanka – A Trip of Two Halves
I was looking forward to this particular assignment in Sri Lanka for Outreach International, firstly because my wife Linda was accompanying me on this trip and secondly we were going to tag a week’s holiday onto the end, hence the title of this blog post ‘A Trip of Two Halves’.

As a city it’s not unlike most other capitals around the world, lots of high-rise buildings, crazy traffic and huge shopping malls. On the final day I decided to go and visit the slum areas I’d seen whilst driving [...]
Faces of the Philippines
I’ve just returned back home this week from my trip to the Philippines, feeling a little tired and jet lagged but still buzzing from the experience I had over there.
