24th Log Books

I am about to embark on a journey through time, as I seek to photograph the Log Books of the 24th Portsmouth Air Scout Group. The collection consists of fifteen handwritten books of varying shapes and sizes that document a significant portion of the history of the Cosham based group, from the 1st August 1946 through until the mid-1980s. This is the largest project I have undertaken to date and as such I estimate that this project will take approximately fifteen months to complete (allowing a seemingly generous one month period for each book due to work / other commitments).

Wish me luck.

Website Update

I'm currently in the process of updating / redesigning the website in its entirety, so apologies in advance for any broken links or unfinished pages that you may come across.

Retirement

Due to both a lack of time and also money, it is with much regret that I must announce that for the time being all of my photography projects are on hold. This temporary departure could well become a permanent retirement as I seek to ensure my daughter can fulfill her aspirations and dreams. She is, and forever will be, my priority.

Photography for me was always about ideas and concepts over financial gain. Sadly I am not in a position to continue on my photographic journey and thus the lens cap is firmly back on.

Thank you for all your support.
