First Steps …..

Thank you for dropping by and checking out my websites blog page.

I had great fun in creating these street photography images after first reading up on the subject. As well as being inspired by other peoples work. Now while I don't live in a really interesting place to photograph like New York, I can still find inspiration from more local locations. Also it is a way to get out and meet new people. On a recent day out I met a old Scottish lady who asked after me because I was sitting by the side of the road having a rest from all the walking. She was lovely and we sparked up a conversation about what I was doing and that she had seen me taking pictures of the traffic crossings. I also asked a young man sitting on a chair outside a barbers shop if I could take his picture as I thought it would make a great shot. He said he did not understand English but when I showed him my camera he understood. The shop owner came out and enquired what I was doing and after clumsily explaining, and worrying if they would take offence they agreed. Although I don't think the man in the pictures really liked the intrusion and at one point gave me the stinky eyed look of death. Still I was right all along and it did make a half way decent image.

So with this blog I shall update when ever I post to this site, as and when I can get out. It will not be every week, but as regular as I can make it.

So welcome to my website and blog …. thank you for stopping by..

Talk soon ….
