JOIN IN THE FUN!

One of the great things about photography is being able to share your view of the world. This month, one photographer reunites subjects from more than 40 years ago! Another breaks the mold and photographs elusive birds.

We want your photos and stories! For your chance to show off your images in PhotoPlus, email three to five high-resolution JPEGS, along with a brief synopsis - explain why you took the shots, the location, whether they're part of an ongoing project or a one-off shoot, and anything else unusual or interesting. Also include Canon EOS camera, lens and exposure details.

Email images and info to [e-mail]

In the late '70s I had a Kodak Instamatic camera and I fell in love with street photography whilst hitchhiking around Europe. I'm self taught and even set up my own darkroom, safe to say there were a lot of hard lessons to be learnt along the way and many rolls of film destroyed. I was more interested in people than the architecture of my street photos back then, I was also more shy and I'd tend to shoot with a long telephoto lens to take candid snaps without being spotted, I think both of these aspects have changed in my style over the years.
