Welcome

 

This site is about my photography, but it is also about my journey to try to be a better photographer. I am using these pages to record my notes about cameras, equipment, exhibitions, styles, locations, clubs, photographers, courses, workshops and all the other stuff that appeals to photography nerds like myself.

I joined the Royal Photographic Society a few years ago, and I am working towards their distinctions. We all think our own photographs are amazing, but the critical appraisal from professionals quickly put me in my place.  I have the LRPS, and I am currently working towards an ARPS with several projects.

View my LRPS panel here, N.B. that was 2015 and hopefully I have journeyed on just a little since then. For what it is worth these are my top tips to achieve that award.

I am a member of Bedford Camera Club, a community of enthusiastic photographers, whose interests span lots of different genres.   We have brilliant talks and competitions, and although I seldom agree with the judge’s comments, their advice can occasionally be constructive.

You can buy some of my wildflower photography at the online art store: ArtSnug 

I concentrate on landscape, nature but mostly people photography.

This site is more about notes to myself than the traditional photographer website with galleries. My notes are sometimes based on other people’s work, so they can be more curated than written, but the majority of the photographs are mine.

I do not include other photographers work without their permission. However, I like to share good work on my twitter feed.

I welcome your comments.
