I like photographs which leave something to the imagination.

I had been working in colour for ten years or so and looked at digital and liked the possibilities it gave me.

Look at lots of exhibitions and books, and don't get hung up on cameras and technical things. Photography is about images.

Born Berlin 1931, Germany, father a British diplomat, mother an American artist. Educated at various schools all over the world. 1958 Settled down to live in London. 1966 Became interested in photography through photographing my young children. No formal training.

It was 1966 by the time I started taking pictures seriously and books, newspapers and magazines of the time were full of great pictures that helped to inspire me.

I've been working with the land for most of my life; walking it and photographing it. And I love it to bits.

I hardly teach. It's more like a gathering of minds looking at one subject and learning from each other. I enjoy the process.
