FlowersA varied selection of flower images, some taken in the comfort of my home undisturbed by the weather. Some of these images were taken with a selection of cheap vintage lenses such as the Helios 44. One of which has been modified with a reversed front element creating a strange but lovely background.

TwirlsAll of these images were originally very ordinary photographic subjects however, with some processing magic have been transformed into totally different images. The results are always unpredictable, as you never know quite how the image is going to turn out. The images in this section are to me some of the more successful and attractive I have produced.
