A good picture can be like a stage waiting for something to happen. Silent. Balanced. Something for your mind to wander into. Taking landscape pictures involves getting up before sunrise and watching lots of sunsets. You need to get familiar with the light and your subject. The hard part really is being in the right place at the right time. When the light and weather and location all come together.

Biography

Born in Reading, England in 1972 to a fairly nomadic family, they lived in England, Wales and throughout the Middle East before settling in Scotland in 1983, never spending two years in the same house until arriving in London in 1996.

Neil has never studied photography or art in any formal way. He sold his first picture to an Antiques shop on The Kings Road in London in 1996 for seven pounds. Photography seemed like something anybody could do and having been given a decent camera, and the idea that you could be judged by the quality of your pictures, and none of the nonsense that surrounds other jobs, for Neil it was a job made in heaven.

Now he spends most of my time in Ventnor, having fallen in love with the town and moved down in 2012. He’s lucky enough to wake up and watch the sun rise up over the sea from home. he can’t think of a better place to raise his family, or to work to develop his pictures.
