SEIZE THE LIGHT

Light is the foundation of photography and my goal is to capture it in all of it's forms.

My photography reflects a wide range of passions. I have a great love of the outdoors and wild places and revel in capturing the natural world in photographs. My particular passions in this area are sunrises/sunsets, waterfalls and mountain scenery. I have also been involved with motorcycling for much of my life and these days concentrate on capturing the energy and thrill of MotoGP and Motocross racing. Widening a "2 wheel" mindset I also shoot bicycle racing. I also enjoy shooting various aquatic sports. It should be apparent at this point that I prefer "extreme sports" though I am also venturing into other competitive athletics.

I hope you enjoy browsing my galleries. Please check back soon as I add to them as often as possible.

Best wishes... Mike

I am also a member in good standing of the National Press Photographers Association and Wedding & Portrait Photographers International.

Mike, I just looked through your work for the first time and beautiful range of images. I have always enjoyed your work and how much detail you bring to not only the light you catch but the compensation within the frame.

One day I hope to get close to what you currently relay through your shutter. Cheers JIMBO
