Argentina and Brazil

What an amazing adventure.  The first time in both Argentina and Brazil, I fell in love with both.  The amazing city of Buenos Aires was like a secret place, each corner you turned something spectacular met you from the amazing buildings to the wonderful people. Followed by a trip the Iguazu Falls.  How different the Argentina side was to the Brazilian side of the falls.  Breathtaking, a wonder not to be missed, one of those experiences in life that leaves you breathless. Brazil was equally as spell-bounding, flamboyant and vibrant with the carnival taking precedence over everything but what fun.  Cocabanoa beach was alive with people from around the world, all enjoying the festivities, I wonder what the beach looks like outside of the carnival period?  The carnival at the Sambadrome was spectacular, no words to describe the amazing floats and participants. Finishing off the adventure with a few leisurely days in Buzios, paradise in Brazil.experiences Argentina & Brazil

Ethiopia

Amazing Ethiopia.  I wasn’t sure what to expect on this trip but was blown away with the sites we saw.  I feel humble to have had the privilege to visit some of the different tribes in Southern Ethiopia.  At times it was disturbing to learn of some of the tribal rituals but certainly made you stop and think just how lucky we are in the UK.  The scenery was stunning and each time you went round a different corner it took your breath away.  A landscape unspoilt, no posts or cables, pylons or other pollution we see in our own landscapes.  Although many of the journeys were hard and tiring due to dusty and sandy roads it was well worth the occasional discomfort. I hop you enjoy some of the images I captured during this adventure. Ethiopia

Photography for Pleasure Often as a professional photographer time is taken by commissioned work and adhering to the clients requirements.  It is good to occasionally get away from the daily work and create images for yourself.  These are just a few examples of personal work.

Tribal People of India

Editorial Photography I was commissioned to photograph the primitive tribal people in Andhra Pradesh in the middle of India, for a charity called the Nandi Foundation  who work with the tribal people to help them generate more income from their small coffee plantation plots.  In addition they feed 1million children each month, build schools in the villages and provide uniforms for the children.  One of the most important activities is to get sponsors for the “girl child” to educate them and keep them safe.  Girls are still killed in the rural and tribal parts of India.  To read more about my experiences while photographing the tribes read my blog The Gems of Araku Tribal People
