PHOTOS

Here is a random sample of my photos. Visit my galleries for many more.


<p>A moment in Manhattan.<br /></p>
<p>Mist engulfs the church of Santa Maria della Pietà, with the peak of Gran Sasso in the distance.</p>
<p>The former 'cathedral' of Casablanca (technically a church), built in 1930 and only in operation until Morocco's independence in 1956. It is now a gallery and cultural centre.</p>
<p>People walk along the fondamenti either side of the Canale di Cannaregio, one of Venice's larger canals. The wake from passing boats washes up over the walkways. </p>
<p>Strange skies over Berlin on 12 July 2020.</p>
<p>A baby bathes in a plastic bucket. The child's family had been displaced by flooding and they were living in makeshift shelters on a plaza near the national congress.</p>
<p>An interplay of triangles from the 19th and 21st centuries in Cork.</p>
<p>An eerie fishing boat anchored off the island of Ko Samet.</p>
