People have always fascinated me, ever since I grew up in a small household with nine siblings. Every single person has a unique look and personality. I try to capture part of this in my photographs offering the viewer a little emotional attachment to my subject.
Spent a bit of time with Graham MacIndoe on the opening day of his photo exhibition - 'Coming Clean' in Edinburgh. Definitely worth a visit.
Otherwise known as animals & birds
I love nature and all the wonderful things that reside in our world. Animals and birds have always been a source of curiosity and amazement for me. Ever since I was a child, I'd wander through areas; parks, gardens, hills, rivers and any other places where the wildlife was to be found. I've been trying to photograph them for many a year and from my experience, I cannot express how much I admire people who make this photography discipline their own.

I stopped at the side of the road as I was heading up to the Scottish Highlands. I laughed at this sheep who just stood there looking at me as I rolled down the window and took a snap.
Why Framed prints?
Framed prints offer several advantages over viewing images on the web:Firstly, framed prints provide a tangible, physical presence that digital images lack. Holding and appreciating a high-quality print is a more immersive and engaging experience than viewing on a screen. The texture, depth, and true colors of the print can be fully appreciated in a way that digital displays cannot replicate. Framed prints allow for larger print sizes that reveal finer details and create a more impactful viewing experience. Digital displays are limited by screen size and resolution, while print sizes can be scaled up dramatically without losing quality. Finally, framed prints have an aesthetic appeal and physical presence that complements interior design in a way that digital displays cannot match. A thoughtfully framed print can enhance a room's decor and ambiance, becoming an integral part of the space.

Moore, the show premiered in 2014 and stars Caitríona Balfe as Claire Randall, a former World War II nurse who finds herself transported back in time from 1945 to 1743 Scotland. There she meets and falls in love with Jamie Fraser; Sam Heughan, a dashing Highland warrior, and becomes embroiled in the Jacobite rising.

The historic Culloden Battlefield, site of the infamous 1746 battle that plays a significant role in the Outlander storyline, has also been featured prominently.
