Sixty Years in Sixty Minutes: A Lifetime of Leica Photographs (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781665588430)

Born in May 1940 to the crashing accompanyment of Nazi bombers during their Blitz on Sheffield steel City, I survived and was brought up by loving parents and grandparents who formed my character and shaped my life. Luckily I attended the Rowlinson Secondary Technical School in it's heyday with a leaning towards engineering: alas no more as it sank into the pool of grey comprehensive system education. My regular full time occupation was as a professional design engineer of heating and building services based in North England and travelling to numerous sites in the course of my career. For many of my active years I was a member of the Phoenix Mountaineering Club including a term as President and underwent many treks and climbs across the Himalaya. I have also travelled to seek out wild landscapes in Patagonia, Australia, Khirgistan, the U.S.A. India and Tibet. I have been a long time member of Dronfield Camera Club, The Leica Society and the Photographic Association of Great Britain as photography has been a big part of my life. Since my teen years I have continually tried to catch photo glimpses of people and things I found interesting and it is good for me in my 80th. year to look back on these with fondness.
