Just a random couple I took a while ago, call it my first portrait.

Liking the contrast of the yellow and red there GSXRMovistar - very nice indeed.

Portraiture and street aren't normally my thing but here's a small of selection of what I've been working on over the past few months:

A few from a shoot last weekend. The wind and rain was a bit of a nightmare meaning lots of stray hairs but happy overall. Also an excuse to use my new Tamron 17-25 which I was really pleased with.

"Titan" - A7RIV (FE 100-400mm F4.5-5.6 GM OSS) 1/160 @F5.6, 250 ISO

This was my first attempt at shooting wildlife photography, and my first big trip with the A7RIV (I recently upgraded from the A7RIII). I'm blown away by the eye autofocus on animals, so fast to focus and track even when using the 100-400 here.

I took this of my son earlier. I'm pretty new to all of this so I'd welcome any feedback.

Taken on a Canon 550D with a 40mm f2.8. I'd be keen on feedback, especially with regards to composition (was I right to keep that little light on in the background?)

Michael Jackson is alive and well. Either that or it's Worzel Gummidge. Spotted these guys across the road yesterday in Old Bond street.

I've been shooting corporate portraits for local businesses and so far so good, seems to be growing in popularity and one large company is wanting me in every 12 weeks to shoot a fresh set of portraits and documentary portraits. Not all of them are B&W, but some are, especially the ones I share on my own pages. So far feedback has been that it's much better than simply buying stock images, something more unique and relatable for businesses with their customers!

I got an accolade a few days ago by making it to Flickr's 'Explore' page with this street photo.
