Statement
I am an amateur photographer based in Edinburgh. I was born blind in my left eye and I was once told by doctors I would not be able to see depth in the same way as others do - if I could 'see' depth at all! Photography came to my life as a constructive and liberating response to this limiting view on 'seeing'. I am interested in patterns, composition and textures which through subtle variations in light and tone reveal a depth that is tangible and meaningful. For me, photography is a very intuitive experience where I can immerse myself in the raw atmosphere of a landscape. I can become the decisive moment myself - being at the right place at the right time, being and observing. I strongly believe photography facilitates mindful observation. Immersed in the framed world of millions of images, heads down at screens, scrolling fast, there is a danger that we forget how to look - what lies beyond that frame, that composition?
