Golf, Surfing, Sports and Adventure

Sports of all kinds and "the outdoors" have also always been a big part of my life, and sport is something I have often excelled in.  Some of my more serious pursuits in the past have included rock climbing & mountaineering, snowboarding, mountain biking and road racing, basketball, swimming, surfing and a whole host of other sports which even included a bit of football (it has to be said I am not quite as mad about this sport other people tend to be). 

I have tried a lot of other things too, including sailing, kayaking, kite-surfing, wind surfing, horse-riding, I've played a little rugby, tennis, squash and badminton, golf and even passed my "elementary pilots license" for hang gliding.

Having big, fast, and professional zooms lenses it means I am able to get right in to where the action is.  Having the knowledge and anticipation of a natural sportsman I intuitively understand just what is required to get an exciting action shot.

So if you have an idea or requirement for any kind of sports shooting then I openly welcome any propositions you have for me to photograph you ... especially even the more adventurous and dangerous ones!
