Hello and thank you for visiting

I am from the West Midlands, England, and for some years I have been working for British newspapers.

Looking for new experiences and adventures while furthering my profession, I am spending 1999 and 2000 travelling throughout Australia, Australasia and South East Asia.

'My Journal' records, in photographic images and in human interest stories, the various peoples and their customs, environments and wildlife I encounter. Seen through British eyes, much of it is exotic.

Early in my travels I arrived in tropical North Queensland where I developed a passion for scuba diving at the Great Barrier Reef. I cover in some detail what is involved in equipment, training and costs and the joy to be experienced by this most wonderful of adventures. Later I hope to dive off Broome, half way up the west coast of Australia

You might like to return occasionally to see the new material I will be adding as my travel progresses.

While I am in Australia I will be looking to work for newspapers or magazines, in my professional capacity. My professional details can be found by looking at My Gallery or perhaps you would like to return to My Journal

Before you leave you might like to email me or write in my guestbook of your impressions of my work. Please seek my approval before taking any photos or images. They are my professional work and are copyrighted.

You might like to go to the British Gymnastics Web Site where some of my photographic work with Amy Bagshaw, the British champion, is featured.
