From my birth in Poole, a town on the
south coast of the UK; to regularly staying with relatives in Cannes,
France; to my brother's wedding in Dallas, Texas; to visiting my parents
in school holidays when they worked in Southern Africa; I've always been
a bit of a traveller.
New places, exotic places, capture the
moment. My brothers and I could not help but be influenced by the
different and beautiful locations that we were taken to by our parents.
My mum took pictures all through our childhoods. It is no wonder
that we all progressed to having some kind of affinity with the lens.
We all take photos, one brother becoming a film cameraman, the other
an antique camera dealer.
And me ? After
many years of taking photos for myself, while working a regular office
job, I have re-found my passion. Leaving my old life behind, I
have been travelling the world, taking pictures.
But this site is about photos of
Pembrokeshire, Wales? That's not exactly far from home ? Well, no.
But it still exotic to me. I only came to discover Pembrokeshire,
or Wales for that matter, in 2001 when my mum and dad moved there.
What a glorious place ! For all my travelling, I haven't seen half
of Great Britain. It's all on my door step, waiting to be
discovered, all over again by new eyes ! To start off I will
concentrate on Pembs, there is enough there to keep me going for a long
while to come. Just as I started
to establish myself in Wales, I went off to the
Caribbean to work as a scuba diver instructor and to take pictures
underwater !! That my friends, is another story, oh, and
another website -
www.diveintolife.com !! But I have returned to these cold
shores once more .... |
