Photography: Simon Janvrin: Artist Statement

back

 

Simon Janvrin has been taking photographs since his early teens (he has just found his first camera in a rather sorry state at the back of a cupboard).  During a career as a surgeon, aviation medicine specialist and airline pilot, he has developed and printed photographs in some unlikely places.  He has now retired from medicine, but works as a part time flying instructor (specialising in aerobatics).  He finds the digital processing of photographs to be a considerable advance on splashing around with chemicals in blacked out cubby-holes. 

His dogs wake very early, and many of his photographs are taken during their morning walks in the Sussex countryside.
