Hi, Hola, Bonjour , Ciao , مرحبا, 您好, bok, hei and welcome.
My name is James Murray and I live in London, England but love to go exploring in foreign climates. Coming from a design background I look at photography as an extension of this, recording the lifestyles and architecture that make up are world.
My passion for photography started when I first picked up a film camera (wow I miss the darkroom), capturing the moments of my accident filled childhood. I transferred this passion into my studies mixing in all of my design influences to create my own style.
Architecture and photography are the perfect blend each complementing the other. As a HDR (High Dynamic Range) enthuiast, I use this technique to enrich my images.
I have worked as a photographer since 2010, taking photos of the enviroment that I lived in around London, selling images as artworks and to companies. In 2011 I worked for Disney on their cruise ships with the big mouse himself. Onboard I worked as a portrait and wedding photographer, learning new techniques and feeding my travel bug.
Every photo is a memory; there is no better way to capture it then how you see it, not how the camera sees it.
A knight in shining armour
Im am struggling to remember what exactly this building was used for. I want to call it a palace but I know in my head that it wasn’t. A person of high regard lived here in Valetta, Malta. That’s all that I can scratch from the insides of my brain. Perhaps someone out there can help jog my memory.

I went back to visit the protesters at St Paul’s Cathedral for a second time. The place is still packed with protesters and even more photographers each hoping to find something better then the next. I found A giant Monopoly board made by some of the inhabitants. Each Square had a political message instead of a place.
They are going to be there for a long time yet as many attempts of move them on were thwarted.
