Though I started photography many years ago and have a strong darkroom background, my work these days is predominantly digital for convenience. My day job is in IT and so photography remains mostly a leisure pursuit though I do take it seriously. I am an active member of Cambridge Camera Club and lecture and judge at camera clubs throughout East Anglia and beyond.
Tues 3rd Feb 2026 7:30pm - 10:00pm
I’ve been a keen photographer ever since I pooled all my 21st birthday money to buy my first SLR, a Pentax ME Super that I still own. The move to digital back in 2002 opened up a whole new and wonderful world of creativity for me, and the number of burnt dinners that my family will happily accuse me of demonstrates how easily I lose time once I fire up PhotoShop. My recent images have mainly been landscape and nature, but I also shoot still life and portraits and work on composites and creative experiments — if it catches my interest, I’ll have a go (which saved my sanity during the recent lockdowns). I’m always interested to see how other photographers view the world, both to gain inspiration and to share ideas.
Tues 10th Feb 2026 7:30pm - 10:00pm

Tues 24th Feb 2026 7:30pm - 10:00pm
Having learned so much from the Camera Club world, I wanted to pass on some of the knowledge I had learned (and am still learning all the time) to others and was invited to join the East Anglian Federation of Photographic Societies (EAF) judges’ panel in 2006. I try to assess what “drove” the photographer to take the picture and always enjoy seeing the work of others.

My photography is a reflection of both my life in London and my rural upbringing in a small country village in the South of England. I am drawn to human elements and documenting everyday life, chance occurrences, captured moments, a look, a gaze, a feeling, an attitude, a time or a place.
Tues 17th Mar 2026 7:30pm - 10:00pm

If you want to win competitions you should study what is doing well and copy it in your own way. That is however a very poor way of improving your photography and not very satisfying.
Tues 5th May 2026 7:30pm - 10:00pm
A long-time member of Benfleet Camera Club and more recently The Beyond Group, I have always had a fascination for photography and in particular the printed image. I love the challenge of capturing that moment in time which would normally be a fleeting instant often missed in a blink of an eye, such as a bird taking off or a canoeist being swamped by water.
Tues 12th May 2026 7:30pm - 10:00pm
