ENGINEERING CURIOSITY

Always wondering what’s around the corner.

My Royal Navy and marine engineering background left me with a lasting need to understand how things work. HGV driving added another perspective: respect the machinery, plan the journey and keep an eye on the world through the windscreen.

That curiosity comes with me everywhere. I photograph it, ride through it, test it and write about it. Sometimes there are spreadsheets. Often there is tea. Always, there is something else to discover.
