A Selection of Photographs featuring Gothic Style Gravestones, Headstones, Memorials & Grave Markers
I’ve decided to put together a series of photographs featuring beautiful gravestones and gothic styled statues, carvings etc.

Pictures of Old Trees, Woods and Stumps
I really rather like trees, the more of them I see the more I like them. So, because of that I thought I start a bit of a photographic gallery page which will feature interesting trees, forests, woods, logs, branches stumps etc.
I’ll be adding new images as and when I take them - just thought it would be nice to get them in one place.
Hope you like them . . .

Modelling in Lincolnshire & Mr Lincolnshire 2012
Finding models n the Grimsby and Cleethorpes area is not the easiest thing in the world, given that I love doing studio photography so much it can be frustrating.
However, if you can’t beat them join them - today I’ve mostly been modelling
