About

I came late to photography as a profession but early to it as a hobby – 39 and 8 respectively!
Following life-changing heart surgery, I realised that my previous profession was not the real me and I ditched a 20 year career and re-invented myself. Still struggling upwards with that – but love every minute.
I plan, organise and guide private tours for photographers visiting NZ and Australasia, enjoy doing Mr Fixer roles for film and photographic projects from overseas and also grow olives!

My mother in the UK sent me this – apologies of you have seen it!

“This test only has one question, but it’s a very important one. By
giving
an
honest answer, you will discover where you stand morally.

The test features an unlikely, completely fictional situation in which you will have to make a decision. Remember that your answer needs to be honest, yet spontaneous. Please scroll down slowly and give due consideration to each line. THE SITUATION: You are in England; York, to be specific. There is chaos all around you caused by a hurricane with severe flooding. This is a flood of biblical proportions. You are a photo-journalist working for a major newspaper, and you’re caught in the middle of this epic disaster. The situation is nearly hopeless. You’re trying to shoot career-making photos. There are houses and people swirling around you, some disappearing into the water. Nature is unleashing all of its destructive fury. THE TEST: Suddenly, you see a man in the water. He is fighting for his life, trying not to be taken down with the debris. You move closer… Somehow, the man looks familiar… You suddenly realize who it is… It’s Gordon Brown! You notice that the raging waters are about to take him under forever. You have two options:

You can save the life of Gordon Brown or you can shoot a dramatic
Pulitzer
Prize winning photo, documenting the death of one of the country’s most
powerful men!

THE QUESTION: Here’s the question, and please give an honest answer… Would you select high contrast colour film, or would you go with the classic simplicity of black and white?"
