Former journalist now leveraging the "happy banking" proposition for a challenger brand...blah blah blah corp speak, corp speak. Hey, it's not very punk but pays the bills.
Back in 1979 I inherited my dad's Pentax and a few Haminex lenses when he died. I was 15 and a mate and I (well, he did all the work) set up a "darkroom" in a wardrobe. We (he) made an enlarger from a wooden box. We hung the light sensitive paper on the wall and mounted the "enlarger" on a chair....moving it back and forth to enlarge or reduce the image. We fixed a 35mm lens on the front and made a "neg holder" out of gaffer tap and cardboard. We used the lens to focus and set the apperature. The safe light was a torch with some red cellophane taped over the end. We couldn't afford to buy Developer, Stop and Fix, so we used vinegar for the Fix, or was it the Stop? Fly by the seat of pants but a huge amount of fun. As a result I really loved "getting my hands dirty" in the darkroom and found digital quite souless and bland. In March 2009 I decided to give it a go and have enjoyed discovering digital's potential, and limitations....as well as mine!

"One of the first things I noticed here on Flickr is the Work of some of the Photographers here were an inspiration to me to be a better Photographer. Then I noticed that several of my very favorite images had this very unique moniker attached to them......Nudibranches.. And the amazing fact is that these images were so diverse and not at all similar in nature. From stunning realistic HDR offerings (His green tones are remarkable) to perfectly rendered monochrome photos. And so many magical images in-between. So sit back & get comfortable, visit his photostream, open your eyes and mind and prepare to be truly inspired...."
