A personal blog of photographs taken by me that I wish to share for inspiration, interest and illumination. These images have not been taken with expensive or fancy equipment, just very basic cameras because I believe a photographer's energy should be on the subject not the tools. Each picture tells a story. Comments are most welcome and please feel free to download or share any images you like, except for commercial use. Such use is reserved and subject to license.

Dancing Cranes
Re-visiting Berlin this summer I had hoped to get some better photographs of various landmarks than I had a couple of years ago, for much of the city had been one vast building site for a long time. But, alas, it still is. Indeed, it is a booming time for construction there, and I have never seen so many roads being dug up, so many cranes on the skyline, so much scaffolding and so many building sites. Eventually I started taking pictures of them rather than the landmarks I was there for, reflecting that so much of Berlin's history has been precisely about construction and reconstruction and redevelopment. It is certainly the most vibrantly creative urban landscape in Europe today, and I am sure it will all be wonderful when it is finished. I look forward to that day... Location: Berlin, Germany
