I am self taught picking up things as I go.( digital photography moves so fast ) I was quite lucky to land a job at a local college as a photography technician I mainly deal with all the chemicals, run the darkrooms, digital suite and studio and help out with teaching local kids ( and adults )a bit about photography now and again. It also means I get to use equipment beyond my reach.
I quite often do a lot of photography at the clubs that my children attend ( foc )
All comments are welcome!! One day I hope to do a bit of freelance or something like that. I dont get out as much as I should but when the kids are grown watch this space.
Update Jan 08.........I now tutor 2 evening classes at a local college. From beginners to advanced.

"Si has a passion for photography that he looks to pass on to others through teaching.
He definitely has an eye for composition and knows what makes a quality image.
Wish I had a teacher with these qualities when I was younger!"19th February, 2008
