Profile
I live in Melbourne, and have been a keen landscape photographer since childhood. After many years using film, I started taking digital photos in 2005.
Taking the adage “don’t give up your day job” to heart, I earn my living as a university lecturer while enjoying the freedom of making images for my own enjoyment. To me photography is about capturing details of unique places and moments, which I hope to share with others. My main interests are landscape and macro, especially flowers. I’m very pleased to be a member of this wonderful online RedBubble community.
The slippers that are my avatar were on a window ledge in Ghivizzano, a small town in the hills above Lucca, Italy. I couldn’t resist!
My current kit includes:
Nikon D80
Nikon D300
Nikkor Lenses: 18-200mm DX VR, 17-55mm DX, 105mm f2.8 micro (macro), 70-200mm f 2.8
Sigma lenses: 10-20mm, 120-400mm
Manfrotto tripod
Visit my bubblesite Where images are arranged by subject to make them easier to find.
