Redbeardtravels.com R.I.P.After nearly 3 years and over 105,000 hits, I have decided to wind down my redbeardtravels.com photography website and start blogging about my photos instead.
I see two benefits...1) blogging is free and 2) I won't have the same limits on the number of images I can display. I feel my website has become static and dull, with very few new additions over the past months.
I may be repeating things you already knew, but it's important that I transfer much of the site's content to this new blog, starting with the all-important 'About Me' blurb.
Don't worry. This Kansas farmboy with the airshield specs has come a long way since first snapping away in the lates 70s with an antique B&W Brownie! Although my specs are still a bit crooked, to date my work has featured in The Independent, The Guardian, Private Eye, Frommer's Online, Manchester Evening News and Kansas Magazine. I've had images shortlisted for the Seen In Salford 2007 competition and the 2008 Trafford Open Art Exhibition and have exhibited locally in The Lowry Centre and Waterside Arts Centre.
After years of fine-tuning my composition skills, I'm now expanding my technical expertise with professional quality equipment at my disposal and rarely step outside the door without my Olympus E-510.
After graduating from the University of Kansas I moved to Manchester, England in 1998. I'm lucky to live in a fast-changing city near many lovely villages and sublime open countryside.
The photographic opportunities in Lancashire alone will last a lifetime, but I’ve been to over a dozen countries on three continents with plans for many more photo safaris to come.
Professional quality prints with fast delivery are available for your personal use, or contact me to discuss commercial licensing. I am available for commercial photography, open to commissions and able to access a personal archive with thousands of images in 35mm and digital formats.
I am based in Manchester's Northern Quarter and specialise in architecture shots, landscapes and street scenes although I am continually expanding my expertise.
