My photographic projects predominantly deal with contemplation of the landscape whereby I am more interested in the people engulfed in the activity of seeing, than what they are seeing. I therefore tend to photograph in places that are frequented by observers taking advantage of wide spaces or high vantage points.

Be it riverside promenades, observatory decks or plane-spotting platforms, it is not just the grandeur of a particular landscape that I am drawn to, but also the fact that these places are often on the peripheries of the natural and urban landscape.
