"Blackmore's Night"
Yeovil, Somerset
UNITED KINGDOM
A standard concert shot at quite a distance. I had to bump the ISO up to 1600 and steady my hand. The light contrast gives a nice depth.

"Lines of wisdom"
Hyde Park, London
UNITED KINGDOM
There is a distinct look of calm in this elderly chap's expression. His eyes convey that he has been through a lot and has plenty of stories to tell.

"Pretty in the park"
Hyde Park, London
UNITED KINGDOM
This young lass allowed me to take some natural shots of her. Basking in the sun, I kept this shot in colour to bring out the warmth surrounding her.

"Gentle sage"
Hyde Park, London
UNITED KINGDOM
I love this man's expression. It's a nice blend of wisdom and a gentle nature. His slight smile really captures the mood. Is he squinting or is he thinking?

"Yesteryear"
Hyde Park, London
UNITED KINGDOM
This man made a great portrait. I took a dozen shots but I love this one because of the pensive, statuesque nature. To me, this is a very timeless photo.

"Patterns of life"
Hyde Park, London
UNITED KINGDOM
Zoomed and cropped right in, this man spotted me, but I managed to get a somewhat candid shot. This really highlights the characteristics of someone's life in their face.

"Profile"
Hyde Park, London
UNITED KINGDOM
A standard profile photo, I wanted to keep this in colour to emphasise the cultural aspect. The composed angle of the subject and the way it is cropped is very pleasing.

"Point of view"
Hyde Park, London

This is possibly my favourite candid narrative shot for composition and expression. I just love the man's opinionated look. This could tell a thousand stories.

"Jesus of Hyde"
Hyde Park, London
UNITED KINGDOM
Quite simply, a preacher, and the look of Jesus Christ. What you see here is exactly how it was. This man was animated in his religious views and I wanted to freeze the action.

"New and old"
Hyde Park, London
UNITED KINGDOM
This was shot at a long range and I was lucky enough to capture more than a bland expression. The lady looks quite cheeky, like she is almost being berated here.
