Fenland is my home and muse.
Pinned
The Fenland of Cambridgeshire is my photographic “backyard” -a place of wide open landscape broken by drains, droves and lines. The rich black peat , slowly eroding contrasts against constantly changing light.
Using pinhole, polaroid and Holga cameras I try to capture the still beauty of the place.

Recently I shared the link to the YouTube video showing how Ctein made dye transfer prints.
The second edition of his book is available free on line as a PDF download and is recommended if you want to dive deeper into film and darkroom technique

I’m loving the “Frames” subscription - monthly digital mag, quarterly print mag and tomorrow an interactive zoom meeting with a guest photographer - had Alec Soth in the past .
There’s a great members social site too.

Whilst I’ve been coming to terms with the arthritis in my hip, today marked a huge turning point as for the first time since I was 16 I no longer have a job.
Handed my resignation letter in to Tesco today as my body has told me I need to stop.
I’ll be 60 next year - early retirement it is then…
