Roads and Back Roads
While driving you just think about the places you want to reach, the panoramas you want to shoot, but what about the roads that take you to these places? This is the story I want to tell. more
The long, lonely and often cold journey
Sometimes you start a story without realising you have done so. The narrative follows its own path, finds its own pace and carries you along unaware of its existence. more
The Journey of the Autumn Leaves
For nature and landscape photographers autumn is obviously also a great season, offering all kind of possibilities for moody and colourful pictures. But it is not so easy to make something new out it. more
Bark Art
When you look at trees close-up, it is almost disconcerting the extent to which they are not hard inanimate solids, but almost flesh-like, delicate and vulnerable. more
Land of my Father
Months go by in a doldrum state where nothing feels right and I am uninspired by what I make, and then, little by little, things turn around and something emerges from the mayhem. more
The Forest de Fontainebleau
Widely lauded as one of the early pioneers of modern hiking, Denecourt personally carved 1100 kilometres of forest walking trails and about 300 kilometres of footpaths. more

Eldorado Canyon
I discovered Eldorado Canyon State Park a week after I moved to Boulder, Colorado for a new job. It was a bit scary driving my Prius down the severely potholed dirt road through the town of Eldorado Springs to get to the park, but the moment I drove in, my jaw dropped. more
Chance and Luck in Art
Chance and luck occupy a prominent place in the process of artistic creation. Thus painting and photography hold many surprises to one who let accidents, stains or the unexpected happen. more
A Long Ride South
Ten years ago, at a time where I had a Canon Eos and a passing interest in photography & a personal challenge to ride (horses not bikes!) from John O’ Groats to Lands End. more
Haiku and the Art of Photography
For the ever creative mind, the desire to express one’s self can be a constant source of inspiration in itself. There probably comes in a time in most our lives when we find ourselves indulging in a little soul searching. more
Dipping into the Landscape
I came upon landscape via a circuitous route. My main career for 25 years was as an author of young adult and children’s books including an eco-thriller titled Ravenwood with mile high trees and leaves the size of a human. The rights were bought by the publisher who signed J.K.Rowling and sold to 15 countries. I thought I had arrived. However, with each book in the series being 100k words, and with re-writes 250k, the virtual eco-system with its more
