Criticism is hypocrisy; society is hypocrisy. I'm a tourist. I'm a consumer. I do the things that I photograph and can be criticized of.

I toyed with the notion of being an actor, and am so glad that this whim did not go any further.

I do read many of the photography magazines from the UK and abroad.

I avoid Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter, and if I need to communicate with someone, I email direct.

I always take photographs when I attend a funeral. Most people there know who I am and expect me to be there with my camera.

Tourism is the biggest industry in the world.

I am kept awake by the list of possibilities for shooting more photos and deciding what I must prioritise next.
