Shard View at Night Panorama
I captured this panorama of the London skyline at night from the Shard at around the 35th floor, whilst the building was still under construction. The Shard’s height has given me the opportunity to show the London cityscape from a new angle, looking down on the Thames as it snakes through the city from London…

The Shard London Bridge – Blue Hour
The Shard is one of London’s most exciting buildings. It was completed in 2012, then becoming the tallest building in the European Union. I shot views from the Shard for the developer, and the sheer height of the building has made it one of the most exciting series of cityscapes I have worked on –…

The Birds, Trafalgar Square
Pigeons have enormous fields of vision – they can see 340-degrees around without moving, thanks to their side-mounted eyes. The peripheral vision of each eye is so great that the two visual fields overlap, giving the pigeon a binocular field of 24-degrees when it looks straight ahead. Trafalgar square celebrates the famous naval victory at…

I’m fortunate to live within easy reach of Hampstead Heath – a 790 acre stretch of land where the view over London is protected by law! The height of the Heath makes it a great place to capture London’s landmark buildings from a distance. This view includes the Gherkin (St Mary Axe), Tower 42, The…

Golden Mile

The Rain Project
Between 2001 and 2009, I’ve been based at a studio in Crouch End, North London. Over the last 8 years, I have been capturing the scene outside the door in heavy rain. From the same position, but different days and times of year. I’ve loved seeing how people react to the occasional almost ‘tropical’ rainfall,…

Centre Point, London
Centre Point was for many people a symbol of everything that was wrong with British architecture and property development. Its design was considered ugly, and it lay empty for more than 15 years as that was considered more profitable than leasing the space. Now however, Centre Point is a grade II listed building. This virtual…
