A Little Background ...

"3 Little Boys" - Vietnam

I have had a keen interest in photography for many years.  This interest has became an obsession since joining Dundalk Photographic Society in 2002.  Since then I have become a devoted student of photogaphy and much of my personal time is spent in pursuit of my hobby.  I have recently become Photographer Of The Year for the third successive year, a feat never achieved in the DPS 30 year history.  I am proud to have been awarded distinctions from the Irish Photographic Federation and the Royal Photographic Society. My Associateships (AIPF and ARPS) were gained in 2007 and 2008 for submission of a panel of photographs taken in Vietnam.
I also compete in photographic competitions (salons) worldwide and my works have been accepted into these exhibitions in places as far flung as Hong Kong, Spain, Luxembourg, Austria, Qatar and the USA among others, as well as the UK and Ireland.   The Federation Internationale de l'Art Photographic (FIAP) have also awarded me an AFIAP distinction in 2009 for these efforts.
I have won many international awards in photographic salons and had been the IPF projected image national winner for the past two years.
