I am an ecologist and a composer of guitar based instrumental melodies signed to the Real Music label in California. I like to write about my work, music and nature conservation and how it all comes together. I try not to write about things I don't know much about.

My recent trip to America reminded me how exhilarating I find big skies and I now seem to be spending more time than usual photographing them on my walks.  Walking is something else that I’m doing a lot of, almost as if I can’t breathe properly without it.  These photos in black and white have come out quite well I think 🙂
