If you are driving through the Highlands of Scotland during the months of March and April, there’s a good chance you will see columns of smoke rising up on the horizon, behind at least one hill. In most cases, this is likely down to the Scottish Muirburn season which sees great swathes of heathland burnt…
The Bow Fiddle Rock
The Scottish winter is refusing to materialise. This weekend I should have been in the Southern Highlands photographing backcountry skiing, but the location is yet to get a covering of snow. Which meant I had a spare couple of days, which is actually much appreciated after the chaotic last few weeks. So, missing the sea…
Nepal Earthquake
This is a brief update following Saturday’s earthquake to let everyone know that both Katie and myself are safe and well in Pheriche, if a little tired and shaken. The last 48 hours have been non-stop, with very little sleep and a lot of stress. We have just managed to reestablish our internet connection, so it…
Kathmandu
Kathmandu is a city which hit’s you squarely in the face the moment you step outside the airport. The heat, the bustle, the noise, the senses are put in to overdrive as you drive in to the city. Car’s, motorbikes, rickshaws and predestines all battle for the same section of road, all going in opposing…
London Town
I love London, the hustle and bustle of rush hour, towering skyscrapers, endless streets, traffic and vibrance of a this living mass of concrete. I don’t get to visit very often, and don’t know it that well. I would love to spend more time there, getting to know the quite, secret places that Londoners keep…
Telegraph Motoring – Front Cover
Following last months trip to Spain for the Daily Telegraph and Seat UK, the first of a series of pieces in the Motoring section was published yesterday, in the lead up to the Outdoors Show. This was undoubtedly one of my favourite shots from the trip so I was delighted to see they had used…
Playing with dolphins…
September saw me on an epic journey to Portugal to spend six days photographing sailing on the Algarve… You can’t knock that… Last time I went sailing for more than a few hours, it was from Falmouth in the UK to Lagos, Portugal via the notorious Bay of Biscay. It was mostly cold, violent, hard…
A quick hop to Antwerp
I’ve been on the road now more or less continuously since early June… It slowly takes it’s toll… I get a couple of days at home, which are taken up with admin, sleeping and if I’m lucky a quick spin on my bike… and then I’m back in the van and off to the next…
The Road North…
A few weeks ago now, I turned my van North up the A19 bound for Fort William. For this trip I had managed to borrow a Go Pro HD Camera to play with. I set it up in the van to record some of the road trip, so here’s my first experiment, I’m hoping to…
Fort William World Cup 3 year deal!
I’m not long back in the office after a 705 mile round trip, to one of the biggest event’s of the year, the Fort William UCI Mountain Bike World Cup. Every year as I turn back south, there is a moment of anticipation, will it be back next year? It’s voted the best event on…
