Arriving in New York having never visited before he became inspired to record what he saw and developed this book idea.

7 DAYS IN NEW YORK.

"There is a version of New York which has been presented by the people who know and love this town. It is the picture I have bought from film, music, tv and books. I was interested to see what my eye would find of importance to capture and what the journey inside parts of the town I'd see would translate as images. This is a picture postard of scattered elements assembled as I investigated a little around areas of Manhattan.

It is with great thanks to the people of NYC that I can present a picture of what I saw on those seven interesting days. It was a delight and fun to share in conversations with people from all walks of life that share the city daily"
