Brute Forces
















Yesterday we took a little shopping trip over to Wick and I took the opportunity to shoot some rough seas crushing at the harbour entrance. At this time it was just about 15 minutes after low tide.
A cold drizzle, coming directly at the lens made this a rather challenging and wet photo session.
In the afternoon we returned to see what the waves would be like at high tide and we were surely not disappointed. Stil the air was full of seapray and drizze and I had to wipe the lens clean after each burst. Nevetheless it was very enjoyable! Here are some shots from the morning and afternoon...

2010 Calendars are available now






I am very pleased to anounce that this year there will be not one, but two calendars with my most successful images available. They show the best of both worlds, colour and black and white. So there is something for everyone!
Feel free to have a browse through them here, where you can also purchase cards and canvases of selected prints too.

Glencoe and thereabouts









We are back from a fantastic weeks holiday we have spent in Glencoe. This surely is one of the most beautiful locations that Scotland has to offer and I have returned with many great shots to fill up my portfolio.
The weather was nearly perfect with the most stunning reflections I have seen in years. The night skies were absolute breathtaking, surely the best ones I have ever seen. The wildlife was present everywhere, roaring stags in the glens, hooting owls and curious seals.
All in all, a perfect holiday!
Here are some of the first impressions...

My First Book Cover


Back in May last year I had the pleasure of shooting the start of Colin & Julie Angus journey from Scotland to Syria. Now, exactely one year after the adventurers have completed their trip to Syria their book "Rowed Trip" is launched across North America.

I have provided the front cover and some photos on the back for it.
You can see some more photos of mineand read a little of the book in the Canadian Newspaper Globe & Mail
Needless to say that I am absolutely thrilled that my photos are seen across the big pond now.

Whisky.de Photo Wettbewerb

Whisky.de is Germanys top independent online whisky magazine and I was quite delighted when I was asked to judge this years photo competition along with Clemens Dillmann and Heinz Fesel.

In the previous years I had won the competition twice and won some very nice Highland Park bottles :-)
It was a joy looking through the various entries and choosing the best ones. Bring it on again anytime Clemens :-)
Well done to all the winners!

Surfing at Thurso East







While passing the seafront I noticed a few black blobs in the water and so I decided to go down to the harbour and have a little look.... There were no epic waves, but I still manages to grab some nice shots...

Waves, waves, waves....









It was a fantastic morning today and so I decided to go out and fill up my portfolio with some waves. Lucky for me, there were no surfers at the scene, otherwise my landscape shooting plans would have been ruined :-)
