Bio
I was born in Brighton, but grew up and lived in Portugal for more than 40 years. In 2013 I moved to Scotland with my family and have been living in Edinburgh since then. From an early age I've been learning about photography - or at least trying to - very occasionally from success but mostly through failure and persistence. As Feynman once said, 'Study hard what interests you the most in the most undisciplined, irreverent and original manner possible.' My inspiration comes from the works of many amateur and professional photographers and, among many other things, the constant belief that my best photography is 'just' one thousand clicks away.
Gear
Digital and film Nikon SLR cameras (D810, D610, D80 and F90), Nikkor and Sigma Art lenses, a TLR Mamiya C330S medium format film camera, a Yashica Minister III 35 mm rangefinder, Lee filters, and a couple of Manfrotto tripods.
Processing
Post-processing directly from RAW (NEF) files using Adobe Lightroom Classic. Film images made on 35 mm and 120 film (mostly Ilford Delta Pro / HP5+).
