Marrakesh is only 2 hours flying time from London but within seconds of arriving in the old town it feels like you have stepped back in time 1000 years. Outside the city walls, things are different. Wide boulevards stretch for vast distances and you could be forgiven for thinking you were in France or America. But it is the old city that holds the charm. Inside the adobe walls, you can find snake charmers,  markets and much more, mostly in and around the Djemma El Fna – the square of the dead. This shot was taken just outside the famous square.

Face in Crowd, 2004

Sometimes you take a picture and forget about it. Some years pass and you come back and the story behind how the image came to be has completely gone. This is one of those pictures – A face in a crowd.

More black and white photography here.

In New York, I stayed on Manhattan island, somewhere between Central Park and Times Square. I could take pictures in this city forever. For now I will share 5.

The Empire State Building and Lower Manhattan

I think this shot was taken from Brooklyn Bridge looking back up the island.

The Empire State Building

Wherever you are in NY, you can’t avoid the majesty of The Empire State Building

Tourists on Times Square

I like this shot. I was trying to capture the movement and hurly burly of the city

Radio City Music Hall

Not far from Times Square is the Radio City Music Hall.

Taxis - Everywhere

Taxis are everywhere in this great city. Although they are not quite as grand as they once were.

Uploaded the following photographs to the store today. I say Black and White but a number of these are colour!

I will start with the colour ones first.

Stained Glass Window in macro. Shot was taken this year.

Cafe Scene. I was bored waiting for the bill and like the colours on the windows

Had so much rain that I thought I might as well put it to good use.

Taken on the Beach in Barbados.

Here are the new Black and White Photographs added.

Taken after heavy rainfall. Macro lens used.

Another Macro shot with the 30mm 1.4

Taken in New York City. I was trying to capture the busyness of New York.

Everywhere you go in New York, someone is trying to sell you something. Taken up near Harlem.

Early in New York City. Taken around Wall Street area early one Sunday morning.
