Venice in Black and White

Venice - Doge's Palace

Doge’s Palace in Venice is a beautiful building. I took this shot early on St Mark’s Square around 7 in the morning. Even at this time, the place was not deserted.

Top 5 most popular prints

People often ask me what works when selling online. Having been doing this since 2002, I can offer a little bit of advice based on my experiences. To begin with, my typical customer is an American female, usually between the ages of 30 and 50. A typical order is for a 16 x 12 or 30 x 20 inch print. Over the years, these prints have sold the most.
1. Hong Kong from the peak

2. Singapore boat quay

3. Giant’s Causeway, Co Antrim.

4. Relaxation – Part Nude

5. Botafogo – Rio De Janeiro

Had some nice weather yesterday so took the camera out. Was trying to get some simple landscape shots and ended up with the following. I think they might be sold on my site www.picturesforwalls.com as limited editions.

Marrakesh images – Morocco, 2007

Marrakesh is a city that shocks and surprises. The old part of town is just that – old. Almost biblical, the feel of this side of the city contrasts starkly with the wide, planned out avenues of the French quarter. Walking around here, you could easily be forgiven for thinking you were in LA or suchlike.

More black and white images of Marrakesh can be seen and purchased on my store site at

Hahnemuhle Photo rag 308 gsm

Decided to start printing all my prints using Hahnemuhle photo rag 308 gsm. This is arguably the best photographic paper for digital photography and in particular black and white digital photography. As a consequence, I have had to up prices but feel the increase in quality should be more than worth the extra price.
