Taught film for most of my life. I'm a photographer and psychogeographer. I've directed theatre, sat at a Steenbeck and I read a lot. Still working on that damn novel. Any help would be gratefully received. Jungian by nature.

“There were many untold truths about this country, we had poverty, we had unemployment, we had a class system that wasn’t convenient.

Kosti Ruohomaa.

After died in 1961, his legacy as one of New England’s greatest photographers was all but forgotten.

The way the world viewed Maine at that time was partly influenced by what he showed them.

He found his Maine “hidden in the offbeat nooks and crannies.”

Peter Mitchell began taking photographs of Leeds in the early 1970s.

“I was amazed by the great deserts springing up in south Leeds. It was so easy to demolish the back-to-back terraces. They just wrapped a chain around them and pulled.”

Mystery solved.

Vivian Maier was one of the greatest street photographers of all time.
In all the years I taught photography I always stressed the importance of narrative as well as the visual design elements needed to make an image sing.

Vivian was a genius storyteller.

Edouard Boubat.

There are certain pictures I can never take. We turn on the TV and are smothered with cruelty and suffering and I don’t need to add to it. So I just photograph peaceful things. Sometimes, through a peaceful face, I can bring something important into the world.

Gustav Mahler aged 5, 1865.
I lived in a slum in Bradford Manchester, and I sat with my Nan aged 5 listening to a recording of Mahler’s 5th on a radio in the kitchen. It remains with me until today. The importance of music to a child is profound.

The Ends of the World Deserve Witnesses.

I do not regard photography as a tool to understand life. Instead, I believe photography is an expression, a feedback of my understanding of something that happened to me.
Love philosophy, love wisdom.
