I harbour a passion for storing images and have been using a camera for over 50 years.

From a tiny spy camera up to a 5x4" plate version I have played with them all.

I now use digital Nikon D2x's but still have D1x and D1 in my large studio which is available for public hire. Pictures taken by my customers can be found on Bakery People.

On the occasional holiday I now use a Fuji 9600.

Resume

Myk is a physicist who has been taking photographs since 1952. He has an interest in photography which could be described as obsessive and has spent time learning about the technical aspects of digital photography.

He has chased around the world taking pictures of wildlife and visited many of the common destinations - Africa, America, Australia, Bolivia, Borneo,Canada Chile, Ecuador, Europe,Galapagos, India, New Zealand, Scandinavia, Seychelles, Skokholm, Sri Lanka. In ‘97 visited the Arctic Circle to photograph woodpeckers.

In ‘99 he lived with an un-photographed jungle tribe in India (the Baigas) to document their lifestyle and has exhibited the results at several venues. A book about the tribe will use his pictures as documentary illustrations.
A further coffee table book of his tribal pictures is expected in 2007.

He has had a lot of commercial work published and you can find many of his pictures on the Internet.

His pictures have been exhibited locally in both personal shows and with art groups.

In 2001 he opened his studio, the 'BAKERY' mixing his avid interest in programming computers with his photography. These days the programming is focused on image handling and 'content management' websites using PHP and MySQL. He runs various 'net servers, and manages quite a large number of websites using his own code.

In one of his large studios at the BAKERY you may find him taking very high speed exposures of flying owls or exploding party poppers, however his main interest is human photography, be it candid, fashion or figure.

Photographers and all artistically inclined are welcomed at the BAKERY which is one of the best equipped backdrop studios in the country and where you can rent a studio by the hour or for the day.

Myk also runs training workshops mostly directed at absolute beginners or helping established photographers become proficient in the studio where the environment is under control.
