PHOTOS

Here is a random sample of my photos. Visit my galleries for many more.


<p>A view of Wan Chai's verticality with the Wing Tak blocks on Bowrington Road front and centre, and more towers beyond in Causeway Bay.</p>
<p>A giraffe and a zebra share a moment.</p>
<p>A beautiful view of Guanajuato, from a rather perfectly placed bar, El Gallo Pitagórico. <br /></p><p>I'm still proud of this photo from my early days shooting a manual SLR – nailing the exposure with film in this sort of light was much trickier than with modern digital cameras.</p>
<p>This little guy (he is a male) was up atop Table Mountain. Such a colourful species!</p>
<p>An inviting trail.<br /></p>
<p>A man thinks while drinking pulque, a traditional Mesoamerican indigenous drink made from the maguey plant.</p>
<p>People walk along the fondamenti either side of the Canale di Cannaregio, one of Venice's larger canals. The wake from passing boats washes up over the walkways. </p>
<p>Three friends on a Havana doorstep.<br /></p>
