My stories

Unresolved Dream

Cairn Terriers fly from tree to tree, feathered wings start to appear

After the Storm

Sky turns an inclement murky grey, a look of anger sickly black

Stuck On You

They were survivors, riding the waves of life.

Our trip to Yugoslavia captured this moment in time.

Being a born and bred Bristolian, I don't...

Of course like you say, it...
