Work from this year

As you can see, my first love is landscape and seascape, it will be difficult to rein this in to concentrate on portraits. 

I have textured these shots in photoshop CS5 using pre-made textures which are available free or to purchase on the internet.  I find that adding different textures adds another dimension to my photography, helping to transform images into something nearer art work.

Different textures have varied effects from simply enhancing colour and light to adding a painterly feel with brush strokes or canvas.

Here is a short video demonstrating the use of textures.
