about
John started making photographs 40 years ago. He taught himself how to take photographs after getting his first camera, and learned how to develop and print B+W by reading the instructions which came with the developing tank.
He now divides his time between B+W film and digital colour.

My attitude toward making photographs is best summed up by Sibylle Bergemann: ‘…I press the button in order to see what I have seen.’
I constantly struggle with the question What is the difference between a photograph and a snapshot? There is no definitive answer to that question, and that’s what keeps me taking pictures.
Shooting and developing film is like performing a magic trick, but one in which the mystery begins before the trick is done.
