I currently live near Bury St Edmunds in the county of Suffolk, England.

 

More engineer than artist, I have enjoyed photography since I first used my parents' Kodak Brownie Reflex, just like this one:

I got the first camera of my own at the age of 10 in 1963. It was a new model, the Kodak Instamatic 100, like this:

I used this camera right through my stay in Hong Kong between 1964 and 1967, getting remarkably good pictures on Kodachrome and Ektachrome transparency film.

 

At that time I also borrowed my father's Yashica J5 SLR (which I still have):

as well as using a Canon 8 EEE standard 8 cine camera seen here with my mother in control:

Since then I have used my Sony DSC-P9 Compact digital camera, a Canon DSLR and of course nowadays my mobile phone.

 

I am obsessed by tree silhouettes, and some might think by pictures of myself.
