Hi - please don't favourite my shots or add me as a contact if you've posted no shots or have faves full of porn - I'll block you - is that clear enough!

please don't use my shots without contacting me first, they are my copyright


I've been into photography for many years, doing my own b/w printing. By trade I'm a video picture editor working firstly on film, then tape (not my favorite medium) and now non linear (Avid and FCP, at last creative freedom, working from home at minimal expense!). More recently my hobby - photography - has caught up (did I really mean that - I don't think so) when I moved from film to digital cameras. After a year or so on flickr I saw sense and started using film again, though not as often as I'd like

current cameras:
Olympus OM2N and Sony NEX-3- Zuiko 24/2.8 35/2.8, 50/1.4, 100/2.8 135/2.8
Sony A55- 50/1.4, and two bits of lightweight plastic 30/2.8, 85/2.8
Canon 500N 85f1.8
Minolta Autocord (120TLR).

and please no awards or invites (unless you're an admin of a real interesting group)

HOT OFF THE PRESS - Girls..boys..bins..Boris bikes. blasts from the past and of course a geezer or two can be found in my book - Street Stories from London 120 pages, 75 new shots and some old faves ;-)

    "I know John for about 3 years here and since then he has became more than a fellow flickr member - he has become real friend... But that it was not my only point;-)

    His photography is clever, humorous and very cinematic. It has got this timeless quality to it. I am sure in 20 years the children will be learning about this decade looking at John's photos. As it has already happened with his series taken in the 80s.

    Also his comments are always erudite and witty and he always can help with the technical advice.

    Highly recommended:-)"

    "I've admired Johns work for almost a year, which is outstanding and varied. He has given me tips, and helpful information on shooting film. Last week I finally got to meet him. What a fantastic guy!!"
