About Steve

Having experimented with traditional film processing and printing at school, I rediscovered photography with the rise of digital cameras and Adobe Photoshop CS in the early 2000s. Perhaps it was my imagination, but that era witnessed a surge of amateur photographers vying for the best golden hour shots from some of the UK’s and world’s most iconic landscapes. Many of these photographs graced newly established photographic social media platforms. I was part of that vibrant scene and thoroughly enjoyed it!

Twenty odd years later, I’m still passionate about photography. I no longer lug around a bulky camera bag and rarely use a tripod. Instead, I capture what inspires me on any given day, sometimes even using my camera phone which provides excellent results.

Recently, I relocated to the West Country from the East Midlands, which offers fantastic photographic opportunities right on my doorstep. However, I’ll miss many local venues in the Newark and Sherwood area that I’ve photographed over the years.

The move to Devon has prompted a refresh of realviewphotography. Over the coming months, I’ll update all the galleries, preserving some of my early work whilst adding selections from recent years and, of course, new photography as it happens.

Occasionally, I like add news and blog posts to realview, featuring an expanded collection of my current photography. The realview blog is accessible via the tab on this site or through the link realview-photography.blogspot.co.uk

Additionally, I upload my photographs to various social media and photographic sites, including Flickr and Ephotozine.

My photography is a hobby, all about the joy of the activity. I’d be delighted to receive comments on my photographs or answer any questions via the site’s contact form.

Thank you for your interest in realviewphotography.co.uk
