Jack Picknell's photostream
|
I am a young man, who just happened to be born a long time ago, in a little place called London. I moved to the Medway Towns in the late 1970s and have lived here ever since - that reminds me, I must do the lottery!
I live with my second wife, Judy. We both have grown up children from previous marriages. Judy tolerates my photography, following me occasionally on long walks along the river or just putting up with "what do you think of that one then?"
I recently (27 years ago) started a new job with "The Railway" not sure if I like it yet, but I guess you have to give these things time.
I have been "doing" photography ever since I was a teenager (apart from a gap of about 30 years!). Seriously, I have recently refound my interest and become much more active with the camera. When people ask me what I photograph, I always seem to answer "anything" which, for the most part, is true. I am still finding out what my favourites are, and where my skills (if any) lie.

Phil Dillon says:
"I've learned a lot from this man. He's unquestionably a benchmark nature photographer, but he's so much more than that. I'm just chuffed to be working alongside him to promote photography in our particular backwater."

I moved... says:
"Wanna know where to start with Jack aka Through the Eye of I? Very early in the morning is not a bad place to begin.
If ever there was a photographer to put some truth in the phrase the early bird catches the worm it's Jack. In this case though that bird comes in the shape of a camera and Jacks intention to catch the picture that is so often gone by the time most of us are only thinking about getting out of bed.
He has a tremendous eye for the bigger picture whilst also being adept at noticing the detail and abstract that's held within.
Through the Eye of I has got the eye and I'm really pleased to count myself as one amongst his audience."28th January, 2008
