Girl in a Newspaper Dress

This is my first photo to be published by National Geographic magazine.

It's no mean feat i can tell you. I traveled to Madrid in April 2011 with the intention of taking lots of photos of the Easter parades. However it rained most of the time i was there and that opportunity passed me by. On my last day the sun shone and while i was walking around the centre, i noticed this girl wearing a dress made out of newspapers. I quickly fired off some shots and was quite pleased with the resulting image. It made the whole trip worthwhile and it also features in this months edition of National Geographic.

The Apple Building on 5thAve NYC!!
Such a cool building, i took this photo in January 2012, when the crowds weren't as manic as they were in December. I was actually in the elevator looking upwards when i took some snaps. I was pretty pleased with the resulting image.

I took this photo in February 2011, who would of known that within the calendar year, we would see a regime change in Libya and the end of Gaddafi. I also submitted this shot to National Geographic where it was featured in their shot of the day section.
