Inbetween playing San Andreas and Arsenal home games I find myself more and more looking through the lens of my camera.

My work is very autobiographical and is as much a document of my own life as it is my surroundings. The images you see presented here fall somewhere between documentary and fine art photography and is the result of the last seven years of my life. It forms part of either an on going project or a wider body of work.

Much of my recent work is inspired by daily life, girls fixing their make up on boring train journeys and the view from the window. Signs and industry and cityscapes and as I photograph them I find myself noticing things that had once been invisible to me....

I hope you like the pictures.... keep listening to Neil Young.
