Over the years I have used many different cameras varying in age, format and size. Although some appear outwardly similar they are in many respects quite different from each other. Each possesses an individual character in design and ergonomics that will become entwined with the image making process.

Currently I use equipment from both 'traditional' and digital technologies. While I have embraced some of what digital technology has to offer there is always the possibility of any 'process' taking on a greater importance than the final 'image'. Whether it be analogue or digital, alternative or traditional, 35mm or LF camera, etc - these are only the means to an end - the photograph.

Many of my images are made using various 'panorama' or 'banquet' type cameras. While some may argue that this type of camera does not take a true panoramic field of view (ie >100deg), it does create a pleasing result within the single frame.

In 2004 I started making some of my panos by stitching together several single shots to create a larger seamless image. These individual shots are made by panning the camera on a fixed nodal axis. The result is perhaps a more accurate representation of the wide 'panorama' often encompassing a 120 degree, or more, field of view.
