About Me

In 1985 I was made redundant from my publishing job and learned the
techniques of Black & White photography with a local Community Group. I
shortly became a Prizewinner at the International South Bank Photo Show in
London which inspired me to continue taking photographs.

I was also inspired by the Magnum group of Photographers and developed a
keen interest in Documentary Photojournalism. With my winning prize-money I
purchased a Leica M6 as used by most of the Magnum photographers.

I have since received 11 photographic awards.

I prefer to capture unposed moments in time using natural light. I have worked with various Multicultural
groups in my area which has enriched my life. I love Travel and all the Arts.

With the onset of Digital photography I sadly find my darkroom has become redundant and I am moving more
towards Fine-Art photography. Although Art and Photography are blending into one form, I still consider these
two as separate mediums in their own right.
