"I’ve been a computer programmer in the telecoms industry, a computer science academic, a producer (for online-community) in an internet start-up, but I have always been a Photographer – at present I am specialising in Panoramic Photography.

What I like about panoramic photography is that after almost a decade of composing panoramic images I am still learning about it!

Originally my 360° panoramas were only accessible as immersive virtual reality images on the computer. Over the last two years I have been experimenting with ways of making prints of those panoramas.
Having tried a few methods the “stereographic projection” has proved to be the most effective. It typically turns the immersive panorama into a “little planet” as if the horizon in a landscape was the edge of a globe.

I am based in Derry in Northern Ireland and many of my early panoramic images are of that town and the surrounding area. My website veryderry.com provides the visitor with a virtual tour of the city.
I have a huge collection of panoramic images from throughout Ireland that I have shot over the last few years. While my initial gallery here is of panoramas of Derry. I hope, that as I work through my backlog of photography I will be able to add to my collection here panoramic images from throughout Ireland in general."
