I received my first camera as a present from my parents on my 13th birthday, in 1974. It was a secondhand Edixa 35mm SLR with a waist-level viewfinder and a 50mm f2.8 lens. I’ve never been without a camera since.

I shoot mostly digital, however, I still enjoy the look of photographs shot on film as they still have imperfections which, to my eye, elevate them beyond the sometimes ‘clinical’ look of digital images.

The camera / lens / settings, etc used are a secondary consideration for me  as I prefer to let my photos speak for themselves.

None of my photographs are AI-generated. I use AI technology sparingly - and solely - for noise reduction and sharpening, etc. I avoid changing anything which significantly alters the content of the photographs.
