A calming moody image in blue and gold. Hoy is one of the larger islands of the Orkney archipelago, an island that is famous for its wild hills. On a small road past a series of small crofts (farms) you can travel for miles looking at the Hills of North Hoy. Their dark outlines contrast against fields of yellow grasses and blue skies. Created using advanced photography techniques, I move the camera when I take the images. I work to bring out the colours that intensify the emotional connection I made when viewing the scene. This is an image with a lot of emotion, thoughts of times past, images blurred and softened with time. Like faded memories of beautiful days with muted colours and gentle thoughts. Printed on museum quality art canvas using non fade inks.

As a professional photographer I travel often to the islands of northern Scotland to make my images in places that provoke a profound emotional reaction. The colours, the textures, the wildness of the places and the history are all intertwined in a fascinating, and often bewildering melting pot of sensation that forces me to make art. After moving many times to get to where I should be, I now live on top of a cliff at the northern end of the Isle of Skye. Skye is a large and very beautiful island in the far north of Scotland; a place of inspiration, myth and legend. The beauty of the landscape draws artists and walkers, photographers and lovers of Nature like a magnet, and I am likewise smitten. Skye has a ruggedness and intense green hills that would make anyone pick up a camera or a paintbrush. My work has moved through variations on a theme of movement and colour. Whether the camera moves or I move or the landscape moves it is all the same. Colours, moving blending and soaking into one another create a sense of playfulness, the feeling you get when the wind is in your hair on a bright sunny day. More and more I wonder if there is any end to how one can capture the colours, the lines and the essence of a place. In my studio today, the bright green Hill of the Red Fox is shrouded in a light mist, the wind is howling and the clouds are moving quickly across the hills. It is a scene that makes my heart sing. I hope my work conveys some of the joy I feel when I see these colours, the harmony and the wind singing through it all. It is at least a quest that, hopefully, will last a lifetime.
