I am absolutely delighted that my image of The West Sands photographed at Dusk has been used to promote Chariots 2011.
Chariots 2011, a 5 kilometer beach race, is being held on Sunday the 15th of May 2011 at the West Sands in St Andrews to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the film Chariots of Fire directed by Hugh Hudson and written by Colin Well.

Chariots is the story of two British track athletes, one a determined Jew, and the other a devout Christian who compete in the 1924 Olympics. The race was filmed on The Iconic West Sands Beach, St Andrews, Scotland.
The event is in aid of the charity Sue Ryder who provide care to people living with complex long term and end of life conditions. It’s an extremely deserving cause, pleae sign up today !!!
A little about me: I was drawn to landscapes photography by the enescapable beauty and the stilness of the places that I’m drawn to photograph. When I leave, I leave with a piece of something that often takes my breath away.
In the final moments before the shutter is released the stillness settles and everything comes together, its a moment that brings a deep feeling of connection with something so fleeting that has now become tangible for everyone to share.
Now days, I’m not out as often as I would like. I spend my working day photgraphing families, fashion and commercial projects including food, bulding interiors and people in organisations.
For any one interested this photograph printed on A3 paper is for sale directly from me for £35.00 plus postage. It’s also for sale at the Guest House Six Murray park, St Andrews If you buy it directly from me, I will donate 20 percent to Sue Ryder.
