A 23-year military veteran, having served with both the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) and the British Air Force (RAF), Stuart is based in the Western Suburbs of Melbourne. I was lucky enough to have served in Cyprus and Gibraltar as well as having kept the peace in Croatia during the Balkans conflict as well as serving in Bahrain in-between the two Gulf war's helping to enforce the 'No Fly Zone'. I did my first photography course at school in 1975 and have had the bug ever since. Military life curtailed my photography aspirations and now I am retired, I have taken up the hobby once again and I am still trying to find my niche. I love all aspects of photography especially flora, landscapes and panoramas.
