Which overcomes?
So the question I had when I saw this was, “which smell overcomes: the boot’s or the flower’s?”
Flower power
Travel through Switzerland and certain parts of Austria and the scene seen in the photo is typical. It really is amazing what a transformation is achieved to the houses through the addition of flowers. Perhaps it is the drab winters, with the long periods of…
Alpine majesty
Well, I am enjoying a respite from the daily treatments that have been my life for the last 6 weeks. I’m in Europe to attend my wife’s parents 50th wedding anniversary and in Switzerland briefly to borrow a car for the time we are here….
The Fascinating City of Fez

Phuket
This is actually quite an old photo. I found it the other day going through some of my archives. I was in Asia for a month for work purposes and took a couple of days and flew to Phuket. I stayed in the town to…
London, a city of great architecture.
Everytime I go back to London, I find more to photograph. The city is just amazing from an architectural perspective. They have managed to build modern buildings, but maintain a classic and distinctive style (maybe with the exception of the Millenium Dome). The British Museum…
