Photo taken with: Canon 7D Mark II & Canon 55-250mm lens.

Edited in Lightroom and Photoshop (to remove a sun glare spot off the eye).

In the weirdly named blog, I want to talk about photography, the stories behind some of my more interesting shots, the gear and software I use, my technology career, my recent ADHD diagnosis and many other things.

This scares me quite a lot. I’ve never really put myself out onto the internet before. If you Google me, you’re not going to find anything much. Google Images has no photos of me. I’ve always liked it that way. Until now.

ADHD’ers are sometimes known for “oversharing”, one of the side-effects of the inability to regulate emotions well. I’ve always been the opposite, hiding, because I knew I was different, but didn’t understand why.

The combination of the COVID-19 pandemic and my recent ADHD diagnosis have given me a different perspective. I now know why I hid. And now I want to engage, and be engaged, in the world.

If I can be a force for positive change, around people’s knowledge and opinion of ADHD, then I will.

If talking about Business Analysis (my day job), and sharing my ideas for optimising organisations helps anyone at all, then I will.

If I can show my photos and brighten someone’s day by allowing them to enjoy a sunset, or a flying bird, then I will.

And if anyone buys any of my photos, then I will be shocked!

So welcome to my little vanity project. I hope it can be something positive, for me, if for noone else in this new, odd world in which we now find ourselves living together.
