Estimating the number of active serial killers in the U.S. is challenging due to the clandestine nature of their crimes and the complexities involved in linking cases. However, the FBI has estimated that there are between 25 to 50 active serial killers in the United States at any given time. 

This estimate is based on patterns observed in unsolved homicides and missing persons cases that suggest the possibility of serial offenses. It's important to note that these figures are approximations, and the actual number may vary

Certain professions, such as long-haul trucking, have come under scrutiny due to the mobility and anonymity they afford, potentially facilitating serial offenses across multiple jurisdictions. Investigations have suggested that some unsolved cases along highways may be linked to such individuals. 

While the number of active serial killers is relatively low compared to other types of violent crime, ongoing efforts by law enforcement aim to identify and apprehend these offenders to prevent further harm

A mooch around Clifton, Bristol on March 1st. It was sunny, cold and it was brimming with life!


Just a few snaps from Sheffield, I particularly liked the little shot of the lady opposite me on the train! We had a good chat!


The annual military weekend fundraiser at Blunsden Steam Railway. All the usual; stuff, including rain.



I had the urge to experiment with filming crowds in slo-motion... as per usual I used the BMPCC 6k pro, this time coupled with the equally as heavy Zhiyun Crane 4 gimbal, the whole ensemble weighting around 5kg, which gets pretty heavy after a while!!



Popped to London, stayed in Bloomsbury in the halls of residence of UCL - £59 per night, a bargain for London!


So, I blew a bunch of cash on a stills camera, a Canon 5DSR no less, 50.6 megapixels of insane resolution. Went for a stroll to see what I could capture...
