Photo Gallery
In somewhat chronological order, I hope. Some of these images may be a bit blurry or damaged, but they represent a time and place in my career and life. In compiling these, I seem to have a few “missing years”, I suppose either nothing much happened, or perhaps I just didn’t have any photos from then.
I’ve tried to credit the photographers as much as I can recall their names, if you spot any of your work here, please let me know, and I’ll be more than happy to include you.
