# About me
I am an Englishman living in rural Essex, not far from London. I studied art and photography as a student in the 1970s, but drifted away into the wine trade, where I still work. With the aquisition of a digital SLR a few years ago, I rediscovered my love for landscape photography, most particularly black & white, and with a particular fascination for empty, often desolate places that have a story to tell. I try to seek out the sometimes elusive emotion in simple landscapes where something significant has once happened. I am working on a personal project to record the haunted nature of the many wartime airfields in my part of the world, with a view to repeating the exercise in the now long peaceful battlefields of The Great War. I am trying both to learn and to refine my technique, and I am here, God forbid, subjecting myself to the scrutiny of the many truly talented people on this forum. Although I am not a premium member and therefore cannot request critique in the normal way, I would be truly grateful for any constructive criticism that you may wish to give in the comments section.# Comments

Thankyou so much Leon, and from a master no less! Seeing your stunning portfolio has made my day - I think I might have much to learn from you. I suspect that WWII sites might be shared interest too - I look forward to seeing your images of the D-Day beaches.

Thanks much Toby,
Always a pleasure to help if I can (can't consider myself to be a master though 
I think I'll just have a nice glass of Bordeaux now on this our first pleasant encounter
Cheers,
Leon
