My Bio
|
I have been an enthusiastic amateur photographer since my school days, and a keen club photographer for many of those years. My working life was spent in Southampton on the south coast of England, and most of my photographs were taken in and around that city. I have taken photographs of many subjects over the years, but my main interest has always been photographing in close-up the small things in nature that we usually only glance at in passing - if we see them at all. In 1988 I gained a Licentiateship in the Royal Photographic Society (LRPS) in the Nature Prints category. I progressed to the Associate level (ARPS) in 1994 with a panel of Pictorial slides. Finally, in 2000, I gained a Distinction in the Photographic Alliance of Great Britain (DPAGB) with a panel of my prints. I now live a fairly genteel life of early retirement in Gosport, a small town few miles along the coast.
