Rediscovering The Light – A Photographer’s Story

If you’ve already read my recent blog – Flash Forward To February 2024 – you will have learned that I had to take a two year break from photography due to a spinal condition. Actually, it wasn’t just photography that I had to take a break from. Life in general had to stop for me…

Flash Forward To February 2024

So things don’t always go to plan…understatement of the last few years for most people I know. And time has a habit of just flying by…even when you’re not having fun.
