The historic neighborhood of Vieux Lyon is a maze of narrow cobblestone streets, pastel coloured facades and charming shops and eateries. This lovely little corner at the intersection of Rue Gadagne and Rue Juiverie sits in the lively Saint Paul quarter, the steep steps heading up the hill towards Fouviere. I hand blended painterly style textures with my original photograph in black and white to compliment the old world feel of this classic French street scene.

I'm a travel photographer and photo artist. I like to explore every nook and cranny of anywhere I visit and I'm always looking out for something unusual or unique, weird and wonderful, interesting and intriguing. For me, half the challenge is in the initial taking of the photo, the looking for something that catches my attention, getting that perfect composition, but the other half is in the processing, the tweaking and twisting and the addition of a little imagination to see how much detail I can bring to the surface and hopefully let the viewer see the same as I did when I took the shot. My images have been shot here, there and everywhere, mainly in the historic cities of Europe and with the occasional one taken in my own surroundings...
