One of the things I do is write a monthly column for Digital Camera magazine called The Art of Seeing. About 85 columns in now - just shy of 7 years of exploring what catches my eye and why as I travel the globe. Look forward to sharing some thoughts here about photography and the way we see things…

Some slowly wilting tulips, beautiful in this state. A small homage to my old tutor, John Blakemore (1936-2025). His ‘Tulipmania’ work is awesome, especially if you get to see the actual prints he made.

I have just returned to the UK after a wonderful assignment as a Luminary Speaker with Explora Journeys. I shared insights about the art and craft of photography aboard Explora I. The ship is pretty awesome.

Morning all, here’s an image I made yesterday in San Juan. I have fond memories of this place from when I was a cruise ship photographer in the late 90s

Stumbled across an excellent Richard Mosse show today while wandering the streets of Puerto de la Cruz in the Canary Islands. Sadly didn’t have time to watch it all.
