I live In Rugby, Warwickshire, UK. I work in Birmingham, so can sometimes be found wondering the streets on my lunch break with a camera in hand.

Photography is my main hobby, I took it up in 2002. Starting off with 35mm SLRs I now have quite a collection of cameras:

I am an avid film fan, I haven't embraced the digital revolution, and I don't intend to. I like the idea of images being a physical entity - ie negs and slides.

Starting out with colour neg, I am now also using slide film and B&W neg. I have also started to develop my own B&W, but not print.

My main objective is to take pictures of the world, well Britain at least. Because I use film, I archive it away and hope that one day, maybe in a hundred years time or so, someone will stumble across my collection. Perhaps I may become famous, post death.
