He photographs on film and digital on the streets in London and Slab City, an off-grid community based on a former military base in the Sonoran desert, just north of the Mexican border, and looking at his photos I think what strange creatures human beings are and at the same time that he as a photographer spends time searching out and finding subjects and positions and juxtapositions that bring that out. So his work is bother strong and maybe narrower than it could be.
It takes all sorts to make a world.
In one other portfolios he comments that 'Accepting others’ flaws is a step towards accepting yourself.' -
My comment - To see a flaw, one must have a perspective from which to see it. So be thankful for one's flaws because without them we would be blind.
For film he uses Fuji Superia 200/400 and in both film and digital he shoots Leica. You will find this info in his FAQs.
The film runs at £15.00 a roll - ouch - and on the page for Superia at Analogue Wonderland it states
there are persistent online rumours that Fujifilm have discontinued the Superia film stock and are selling off final volumes. While this has not been confirmed by Fujifilm or our industry contacts, there has definitely been a dramatic change in availability and price over the past 6 months. As it's such a well-loved film I thought it worth letting you know the very latest info we have - and I'll update this as we learn more!
