I recently had spinal surgery. Since then I’ve been picking up where I left off with my hobby – photography. Using my Nikon D850 and the massive lenses post-op has been a bit of a challenge! So, I tentatively switched to ‘mirrorless’ in order to lighten the load. Not only has the small size of the camera and fuji lenses helped me pick up where I left off, I have to say I am thoroughly impressed with Fuji’s legendary colour science. Before using the camera I thought this was a myth perpetuated by fans of the system but there is definitely something about it. Not so much ‘science’ but colour ‘art’ as the colour renditions are tangibly but unfathomably pleasing!
Here are some sample images accompanied by my cover of ‘Sway’.
I am a ‘People Practitioner’ who has, over the years, been swept up by the tidal wave of change that has seen my profession go from being called Manpower Management to Personnel Management to Human Resource Management, and now back, well sort of… to Systemic People Management. I came up with the last phrase because I find myself increasingly uncomfortable with working within the confines of the ubiquitous neo-liberal approach to categorising and organising people. I believe that people are people, not merely assets, human capital or resources. While we do find fulfilment from PRODUCTivity, we are ultimately human beings, not human doings. I would like to transcend who we have become and becoming in a marketized, monetarised world and leave the corporatist worldview that reminds me so much of the allegory of Plato’s Cave.
I love God, my family, playing guitar, following Arsenal, travelling and taking and editing photos. This website is a celebration of all these things and more.
