Thank you. Growing up where I did, on the border with what was Zululand, I didn’t have access to much in the way of influencers but I did come across a treasure trove of work by people like Edward Weston, Stieglitz, Adams, White and the like when I was in my late teens. It was a profound influence and one that lasted way too long.
