Martyn Fordham
Drag to set position!
A photographer with a focus on railways, humans, industry, the countryside, cities and the coast. Looking for good lighting and top performance from the kit and computer etc...
Been using an SLR for over 40 years, now digital and I am glad that I had a grounding in film and using a real darkroom.
Have learnt loads over the last 40 years but still have masses to catch up on.
long standing member of the Railway Photographic Cirle and also the Phoenix Railway Photographic Circle, see: www.phoenixrpc.co.uk
I am also proud to be the founding member of the successful Flickr group "Progressive and Artistic Railway Photography" where polite and constructive critique is encouraged, not very Flickr like then! www.flickr.com/groups/railphoto
Broadening my photographic knowledge is helped considerably by being a member of my local club. www.elyphotographicclub.co.uk/
A member of the Royal Photographic Society www.rps.org/ and have (November 2013) gained a distinction with them allowing me to us the letters LRPS after my name!
Also try to never be alone out there with my camera, prefer company and someone to bounce ideas off during a shoot...

Thanks to Martyn, I got back into railway photography after a 20 year break and began to develop my technique as well as upgrade my kit. He is inspirational as a creator of artistic perspectives of the unusual, the mundane and the surprising as well as an astute photographer of the landscape - either with, or without, trains!
