SEASCAPE PHOTOGRAPHY PRINTS

I took this photograph from the sea using my underwater camera housing. It was just after sunrise, and the conditions were pretty wild. The sea was rough and the sky was full of dark clouds, but I love being out in the water when it's like that. There's something exciting about being right in the middle of it all.

I'd been watching the light change when I spotted a little flock of seabirds flying across the waves. Just at that moment, the sun started breaking through the clouds, sending these wonderful rays of light down onto the sea.

I could hardly believe my luck. I knew the moment I pressed the shutter that I'd got something special.

What I particularly love about this photograph is the atmosphere and the story it tells. There's so much going on, from the movement of the rough sea to those beautiful rays of sunlight breaking through the darkness. And then there are those little birds, making their way across it all.

It's one of those moments that reminds me why I love photographing the ocean. You never quite know what you're going to see, and sometimes everything comes together when you least expect it.

I called it The Journey because of those little birds making their way across such a vast, restless ocean.

The Journey is available as a limited-edition black and white fine art seascape photography print. Its dramatic sky, beautiful shafts of sunlight and movement of the ocean are particularly striking at large scale, where the finer details of the photograph can really be appreciated.

I took this photograph in Swanage Bay, Dorset, on a beautiful summer evening. The sea was wonderfully calm, and what really caught my attention was the soft pastel colours in the clouds and the gentle light spreading across the water.

I particularly loved the delicate pinks and blues in the sky and their subtle reflections on the sea. There was something very peaceful about the whole scene, and I wanted to capture that feeling. I kept the composition simple, with a wide expanse of sky above the quiet water.

I've photographed this coastline many times over the years, often in wild and dramatic conditions, but I enjoy evenings like this just as much. The sea has so many different moods, and it's moments like these that remind me why I never tire of photographing it.

The Long Evening is available as a limited-edition fine art seascape photograph, with its delicate colours and open composition particularly suited to a large print.

I photographed Hope in the Storm from the sea using my camera housing. The weather was stormy, the waves were powerful and there was spray everywhere. I've always loved being in the ocean, and being out there photographing in those conditions was exhilarating.

I could see the lighthouse beyond the surf, but I wanted the breaking waves to become an important part of the photograph. I waited for a wave to break in front of the lighthouse, creating the atmosphere I had in mind. When it finally happened, the movement of the water, the spray and the stormy sky all came together.

What I particularly love about this image is the contrast between the wild sea and the lighthouse standing firm in the distance. Despite everything happening around it, the lighthouse seemed to offer a sense of hope. That's how the photograph got its name.

Hope in the Storm is available as a limited-edition fine art seascape photography print, particularly striking at large scale, where the detail and energy of the breaking wave can really be appreciated.

I photographed Cofete in Monochrome late in the day on the west coast of Fuerteventura. Cofete is one of my favourite places to be, especially around dawn or dusk when I can sometimes have the whole beach almost to myself.

Reaching it means crossing the mountains on a narrow, winding road, and when the beach finally opens out below you, the scale of the place is difficult to take in.

On this particular evening it was how empty the landscape felt that caught my attention. The long beach stretched beneath the dark mountain ridge with almost nothing else in sight. I stayed as the light began to fade and the scene gradually became more about shape, tone and atmosphere than colour.

Black and white felt completely natural for this photograph. It brought out the sweep of the shoreline, the mountains behind it and the extraordinary openness of Cofete. The panoramic format also suited the landscape and helped preserve that feeling of scale.

I saw this sailing boat approaching and realised there might be an opportunity to photograph it as it passed between the breaking waves. I watched its progress and waited for the moment when the boat appeared in the gap between them.

What I liked was the contrast between the small, calm shape of the boat and all the movement and energy of the sea around it. The deep blue water and the white breaking waves helped separate the boat from the scene and gave the photograph its strong panoramic feel.

For me, this photograph is also about being ready when something unexpected comes into the frame. The boat was only in the right position for a very short time, and that was the moment I had been waiting for.

I photographed Wave Flock from the clifftops at Nazaré in Portugal. From up there you get a completely different view of the sea, looking down onto the waves rather than across them from the shore.

I had been watching a large flock of gulls gathering above the breaking waves. As each wave rose and broke, small fish were being thrown into the air and the birds would suddenly dive towards the water. It was fascinating to watch.

I waited until the shape of the wave and the flock came together in the frame. I particularly liked the contrast between the power of the sea and all those much smaller birds above it, with the turquoise water helping them stand out.

From the clifftop you can really see the scale of the wave and the amount of activity happening across the water, which is what I like most about this photograph.

For Sunrise in Motion IV, I wanted to work with the colour and movement of dawn rather than make a conventional sunrise photograph. I used a slow shutter speed and deliberate movement to soften the scene and allow the colours to blend together.

What attracted me most was the combination of warm orange and yellow light near the horizon with the deeper purple and blue tones above. The movement softened much of the detail and gave the photograph a more abstract quality.

I particularly like the sense of calm in this image. Although the colours are quite strong, the softened sea and sky give the whole photograph a very gentle feeling.

I photographed Pastel Clouds from a clifftop in Swanage, Dorset, on a winter afternoon, just as a rainstorm was beginning to clear. What caught my attention was the sudden change in the sky, with soft pink, lavender and pale blue beginning to appear through the retreating weather.

I stayed there watching the light change, waiting until the colours and cloud formations felt right before making the photograph. I’ve always been fascinated by these brief changes in weather and light, when a familiar stretch of coast can look completely different for only a few minutes.

What I particularly like about this image is the softness of the colour against the remaining storm clouds. It has a quietness to it, but you can still sense the weather that has just passed.

I have always found that moonlight on the water can sometimes be even more beautiful than the sea during the day. The colours change completely and the whole scene can take on an almost dreamlike quality.

With Blue Moonlight, it was the reflection of the moon across the water and those deep shades of blue that caught my attention. I used a slow shutter speed to soften the movement of the sea and create the atmosphere I was seeing in front of me.

What I particularly like about this photograph is its simplicity. There is very little in the frame apart from the sea, the light and the changing tones of blue, but for me that is what gives it its quiet and slightly unreal feeling.

I made this photograph while lying on my paddleboard, keeping myself as low to the water as I could. From that level the sea seemed to stretch away almost endlessly, with very little separating the water from the pale sky.

The scene was already beautifully simple, but the solitary gull gave me the small point of movement I needed. I waited until it was in the right position before making the photograph.

What I like most about Blue Flight is its openness. There is very little competing for attention, just the soft blue water, the distant horizon and that single bird moving through the frame.

I photographed Last Light as the colour was beginning to fade from the sky at the end of the day. What caught my attention was the softness of the scene, with warm orange light near the horizon blending into the cooler tones of the clouds and sea.

I used a slow shutter speed to smooth the surface of the water and allow some movement to show in the clouds. That softened much of the detail and gave the photograph the quieter, more painterly quality I was looking for.

What I particularly like is the small band of light remaining on the horizon and the way its colour is reflected across the water. The scene was becoming more subdued by the minute, and I wanted to preserve that brief transition between daylight and evening.

I made Puff in Fuerteventura. I first noticed the single white cloud hanging in the blue sky, then saw a small sailing boat moving along the horizon. As soon as I saw the two, I knew there could be a great photograph if I waited for them to come together.

I watched the boat slowly make its way across the sea and waited until it reached the position I wanted beneath the cloud before taking the photograph.

What I like about Puff is how little there is in the frame. Just the boat, the cloud, the blue sea and all that open space. It was really a matter of seeing the possibility and having the patience to wait for everything to fall into place.

For Sunrise in Motion III, I wanted to do something different with the colours of dawn rather than make a conventional sunrise photograph. I used a slow shutter speed together with deliberate camera movement, allowing the sea, horizon and early light to blend into long horizontal bands.

I particularly liked the contrast between the warm orange glow above the horizon and the cooler, darker tones of the water below. The movement removed much of the detail from the scene and left me with something more abstract, where colour and atmosphere became more important than the actual landscape.

This is one of the things I enjoy about working around the sea at dawn. The light can change incredibly quickly, and experimenting with movement gives me another way of interpreting what is happening rather than simply recording it.

I photographed Sunrise in Motion II at dawn on the Dorset coast. The sky was filled with soft bands of pink, blue and orange as the first light began to spread across the sea.

I used a slow shutter speed to soften the detail and introduce movement into the scene. Rather than recording the sunrise exactly as it appeared, I wanted the colours and lines to blend together and create something more impressionistic.

What I particularly like about this photograph is the gentleness of the colour. There is movement throughout the image, but it still has a wonderfully quiet and peaceful feeling.

I photographed Sunrise in Motion at dawn on the Dorset coast. The colour across the horizon was changing quickly, with warm orange light appearing beneath cooler blues and softer tones in the sky.

Rather than photograph the sunrise in a completely literal way, I used a slow shutter speed to soften the detail and introduce a sense of movement through the sea and sky. I liked the way the colours began to stretch across the frame while the horizon still remained recognisable.

For me, the photograph is less about recording a particular sunrise and more about capturing the movement, colour and atmosphere of those few minutes as the day begins.

I photographed Diving Gulls from my paddleboard, which gave me a very different viewpoint from shooting from the shore. Being out on the water allowed me to watch the gulls much more closely as they circled above the sea and repeatedly dived down for fish.

I liked the way the birds were scattered across the pale sky and blue water, with some flying and others dropping towards the surface. From the paddleboard I was almost at water level, and that low viewpoint helped give the photograph the open, spacious feeling I was looking for.

It is one of those scenes that looks quite peaceful in a still photograph, even though there was constant movement going on around me. For me, that contrast between the calm blue sea and the activity of the gulls is what makes the image work.
