About me

Gender Male
Location United Kingdom
Introduction I have a history of professional large format photography (BA hons Degree in Photography & Design) and am currently in book publishing. I have dabbled in video, and have recently been smitten by the vast potential of DSLR video production, and film making in general. I simply LOVE it. I have travelled the world and had my fair share of adventures. I love smoke puffing out of a chimney on a snow laden day, and palm trees blowing in the wind. I enjoy playing tennis, walking in the Lake District and love anything Michael Mann. In the words of Dillinger, "What more do you need to know?".
Interests Photography, abstract art, film, travelling, Christianity... and, cough, Call of Duty.
Favorite Movies Heat, The Insider, Insomnia, Stand by Me, Witness, (Nolan version), Gladiator and of course... Star Wars (I do a mean Chewy impression). There are many others - am I obvious?! My tastes vary enormously. I confess I love LA Story with Steve Martin. Who doesn't love the Pink Panther series? Talking of TV, my all time favourite is Miami Vice. There has never been anything on TV since that has taken me to those heights. Other than perhaps the soon to be "Luck"!
Favorite Music At the moment, enjoying Snow Patrol, ColdPlay, Arcade Fire and I always download Hans Zimmer (Time, Inception is superb). I am a pretty typical mid lifer! But of course, I like Moby. Having a mid life crisis, and become a closet eminem fan.
Favorite Books Anna Karenin, Lost Heart of Asia, The Spiritual Man, but ultimately... the Bible (the most underrated book in today's western society). Christian or not, the Bible is epic.
