David first used his father’s box camera when on holiday
in Cornwall aged 11. Several years later he began making contact
prints from black and whiter films from the very same camera after
a visit to France. At 21 he was given a 35mm camera which led
to using colour transparency film to produce slides. At this time
David joined Beckenham Photographic Society and began making monochrome
enlargements for club competitions, he then went on to join the
Royal Photographic Society in 1972 and four years later gained
an Associateship. Within the Society he joined the committee of
the Colour Group and has served in various offices including seven
years as Chairman. In 1998 a panel of fifteen colour prints gained
him the distinction of the Photographic Alliance of Great Britain.
Now retired David is free to follow his hobby and take on photographic
projects from time to time. Digital cameras have now taken over
from film with prints made using a computer and inkjet printer.
This exhibition catalogues David’s travels through eight
countries and he hopes you will enjoy the results!
All mounted and framed works in this exhibition are for sale.
