Mak'm & Mrs' photostream
|
For a period of 5 years between 1978 to 1982 photography was a way to prove to myself that I was still alive. Unable to unable to make sense of the "real world" and "real people" who told me that I was too sensitive, too quiet, too thoughtful, too strange, I found that my world changed when I picked up the camera. Through the viewfinder a new and better world opened up and, best of all, it acted as a shield. I did not have to get too close when I held the camera.
I use my photostream as a noticeboard on which I pin my pictures as they develop in my mind, often they are just experiments and sometimes, I am playing around with B&W and colour. Either way they are not the finished article and they should be viewed as such.
To be finished at a later date. . . . .
