Nominee

"painted face"

low key portrait with bodypainting


Biography: My photography started in the film days of early 70's with a Zeiss Ikon Super Ikonta roll film camera, graduating to a Nikon FM system. My primary interest is black & white but the richness and flexability of digital colour facinates me. Exhibited in several national and international exhibitions with acceptances in 37 countries....Now exploring "alternative techniques from the mid 1800's such as Cyanotypes, Bromoil, Gum Bichromate, Gum oil etc using large format internegatives...Enjoy shooting portraits, seascapes, landscapes, pictorial, & fine art. ...Considerable published...
