Hi Jon,
Welcome to my latest newsletter. I hope you all had a great festive period and now looking forward to 2020. There will be some interesting developments through this year as I have a lot of things planned for both photography projects and workshops.
Last remaining 2020 Wall Calendars available
Firstly, on the subject of 2020, a big thanks to all those that purchased a 2020 Wall Calendar, they have been very popular. There is a very small amount of the Algarve Sunsets Calendars remaining, these are available to purchase in the web shop, More info…
My Favourite Recent Image
I visited Burgau, a hidden little gem of a small coastal village on the Algarve’s south coast (west of Praia da Luz) to capture the sunset. Not only did I capture a sunset photo (More info…) but I waited until dusk had set in. In the image you can just about make out a group of people sitting around the public table near the slope down to the beach. I could hear them saying “I hope that photographer doesn’t fall”, I was actually in a safe location, but maybe to them it looked dangerous. A few days later the image was on display (with many others) at the Aljezur International School Christmas Fair and a group came to look at the photograph. They noticed the date on the information label and immediately realised that they are the group in the photo. Of course, they decided to purchase an A3 framed copy.
This image is also currently the Week’s Featured Print and is available in all variations with a discount. Click image to view in the shop.
Workshop News
I am working on expanding my photography learning services for 2020 and there will be more exciting news of these developments as they happen. One new service that is available is my Personal 3 Hour Workshop Sessions. I appreciate that not everyone can spare a whole day for my Digital Photography Fundamentals Workshop and may want to learn at a more relaxed pace. My new 3 hour sessions give a little more freedom rather than following the set day’s agenda. Maybe you wish to just learn one topic or maybe you want to schedule a few sessions.
These sessions also perfect if you wish to learn more about Smartphone and/or Tablet photography!
These new sessions are available for up to 4 people and can be purchased individually or pre-paid in bulk with a discount. The prices start from just €37 per session.
Take a look at the Personal 3 Hour Photography Workshop Sessions Page for more information.
Whilst I’m on the subject of workshops, the Digital Photography Fundamentals Workshop is going on the road! I am close to organising a new venue in Guia to host the workshops. I have been asked on many occasions if they are available nearer the coast. Once this has been finalised, dates will be scheduled on the website.
Photography Field Trip: White Storks Of Silves – Saturday 8th February
This trip was very popular in 2019 and is back for 2020! This field trip visits the historic city of Silves and I will escort you around some of the best places to photograph the White Storks and include a session of in-flight photography and of course, I will share my knowledge of these amazing birds. It was very popular last year and suspect it will again sell out this year. If you are interested in either bird photography and/or White Storks in general then you’ll love this field trip to Silves.
More information can be found in the web shop. More info…

If you are not able to attend on Saturday, the exhibit will be open for at least the next two months.
Covid-19 regulations are being adhered to on Saturday with the maximum of 10 people allowed inside the Bungalow at any one time.

Hi Jon,
Welcome to my latest newsletter. I hope you are all keeping safe and well during this current situation and now at least for those of us in Portugal, it seems that normality is slowly (very slowly) returning. Personally, for me, I’ve used the time to try to get other things, non-photography related carried out, but of course, a lot of my photography work is done in isolation anyway so this element of my life has been unchanged.
My Favourite Recent Image
I have just started a new mini-project to photograph European Rollers that return every spring to the plains of the Lower Alentejo. After observing them on 2 occasions, I recently had a session amongst them. Getting so close and witnessing their amazing acrobatic displays, where the name Roller comes from, is amazing. You can see the photo along with others in the blog post. (Read More…)
4 Special Edition Acrylic Prints Available
Occasionally, I send some of my favourite and most colourful images to an Acrylic printer and offer them as Special Editions. During this quieter time, I have printed 4 photos including sunsets from Carvoeiro, Burgau, Praia de S?o Rafael and one of my always favoured sunsets at Arco de Albandeira. (Read More…)
Castro Verde Field Trip – SPACES AVAILABLE!!!
The sold-out Castro Verde Field Trip was of course postponed and has been rescheduled for Wednesday June 17th. Some of the guests are either not able to travel to Portugal and some are unable to make the new date, therefore, there is a chance to grab a seat on board the Minibus and have a day in the Castro Verde area of the Lower Alentejo, I also hope to take you to see the European Rollers as mentioned above along with all the big Birds of Prey that are often so easy to spot.
The cost is just ?65 per person which includes a pickup in either Albufeira, Messines, S?o Marcos da Serra or Ourique, driven to the LPN centre (please note, the actual building may still be closed), an optional walk around the centre and a drive around the plains to spot wildlife. (Read More & Book…)
Workshop News
The one part of my work that Covid-19 has affected is my teaching and workshops of course. It hit just as I was about to launch my new workshops and mini-workshops, this of course is all on hold currently but soon enough I will be looking to start offering these services again!

Photography Workshops
2020 has affected almost everyone’s lives in one way or another and for me the inability to provide my “Open” Workshops has been tough. As we look towards 2021 giving us some sort of near normality I am re-inventing the way I will be providing the Workshops. I am currently looking for venues to host what will become regular classrooms in that I can provide short sessions with targeted themes covering all aspects of photography. This will enable attendees to pick and choose which elements of photography they wish to improve on. Of course, I will continue to provide the single one-day Workshops too. Although my “Open” Workshops are currently on hold, I am still able to provide 1-to-1, 1-to-2 and small group private Workshops in either a FULL DAY or my 3-Hour Sessions.
My Exhibition At The Carvoeiro Tennis Club
Don’t forget that a small selection of my work is available to view in the Bungalow at the Carvoeiro Tennis Club.
More Information….
I’d like to personally wish you a great Christmas wherever you are, keep safe and let’s look forward to a healthy and happy 2021!
Best regards
