I am a married father and grandfather and live in Australia’s national capital city, Canberra.
I have been involved in photography for over 60 years. I was President of the Canberra Photographic Society for eight consecutive years in the 1990s, and am still a member.
I joined the Australian Photographic Society (APS) in 1976 and have served it in a variety of capacities, including two terms as President – one of which is current. I am a Life Member and have been awarded a Fellowship (FAPS) in recognition of my photographic skills, and an Honorary Fellowship (Hon FAPS) in recognition of my service.
The International Federation of Photographic Art has awarded me an AFIAP in recognition of my photographic skills, and an ESFIAP recognition of my service.
