Desk bound on weekdays I love to get outdoors and walk in the Lakes on the weekend. I am originally from the Northumberland Coast and still love the North East of England. Always very observant and naturally curious from a young age, I love to photograph my natural environment. I especially love landscapes and simpler, minimalist shots. Recently I have been converting more of my work into monochrome. I have been taking photographs for many years but have taken my photography seriously in the last four years. I am an iMac user and edit with Aperture 3.3 & Silver Efex Pro 2. Penrith, Cumbria
