Tags: Books, Lots, TechnicalI had been working in colour for ten years or so and looked at digital and liked the possibilities it gave me.
Tags: Gave, Liked, WorkingI hardly teach. It's more like a gathering of minds looking at one subject and learning from each other. I enjoy the process.
Tags: Enjoy, Learning, MindsI have always been a very keen walker, though, and I often took a camera with me on my walks.
Tags: Often, Though, TookI have always loved reading, so was interested in the literary world, and took many literary portraits.
Tags: Interested, Loved, ReadingI like photographs which leave something to the imagination.
Tags: LeaveI'm not faithful to one particular medium, and it's what I try to teach to people who work with me.
Tags: Faithful, Try, WorkI've been working with the land for most of my life; walking it and photographing it. And I love it to bits.
Tags: Life, Love, WorkingThe viewer must bring their own view to a photograph.
Tags: Bring, Photograph, ViewYou can't expect to take a definitive image in half an hour. It takes days, often years.
Tags: Days, Expect, OftenAfter Land I wanted to continue exploring the theme but I needed a new challenge so turned to colour. I explored Bradford and produced a series of urban landscapes that I liked, but because Land had made such an impact on the general public my colour work wasn't reviewed.
Tags: After, Challenge, WorkAnd in fact I don't believe there is such a thing as a definitive picture of something. The land is a living, breathing thing and light changes its character every second of every day. That's why I love it so much.
