For those aspiring to make a living from travel photography, it's a sad fact that the boring shots are the shots that are going to make you money.

Photography is Art and Art is Photography.

You can't learn passion, either you've got it or you haven't.

Most of the photographs people take with their cameraphones are of little value in terms of documentary.

Unless it hurts, unless there’s some vulnerability there, I don’t think you’re going to get good photographs.

I get up early and open my emails, write cheques and answer the phone; whatever needs to be done.

In 1982 I bought the newly released Makina Plaubel 55mm fixed-lens camera. With this shift from 35mm to 6 x 7, I also changed from black and white to color. Later that year, I started my project on New Brighton called The Last Resort. However, the first project I shot in colour was composed of urban scenes from Liverpool. This image was on the second roll of film. It's the first good photo I made in this new chapter of my work.
