Photography

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 D3x but still have D2x's, D1x and D1 in my home studio which is not available for public hire.

On the occasional holiday I now use a Canon G9 or a pocket Sony.

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.
