My name is Max Watson. I am a middle aged disabled bloke who has been “into” photography for 45 years. I was frustrated with a cheap point and shoot digital camera, but have recently been able to get a much better camera & so hope to produce some better work. I struggle to get out and about but happy to join photographic outings with patient people.

I’m old fashioned in that I still believe that the art should be in the camera… composition, exposure, etc. but I also accept that today the computer IS the darkroom… but I keep that to a minimum, working on the KISS principle.

Having only one hand (that works) I cannot use an SLR easily so I went for a Fuji S5800 & vervy recently upgraded to the new Fuji S100fs.

Writings

The Dentist

Have you ever wondered how dentists understand the mumbled responses one gives while laying in their chair?

The Crucifixion

His back looked like it had been raked with a brush of nails.

A Hymn of Tolerance (apologies to 1 Corinthians 13)

1. Though I speak with the tongue of actors and lawyers, but have not tolerance, I am become as nothing. / 2. And though I am able to discern the trends of public opinion, and understand all political…

The First Man

Like any truly honest man I know the awful ugly things that silently lurk in those dark corners of one’s mind.

The End

The short email asked me if I could find a solution to the attached problem.

Gallipoli 1914

So here I lean, against the trench wall, rifle at the ready, my foot on the ledge waiting for that bloody whistle
