Rick Wallington

Photographer

Amateur photographer since I was in ‘short trousers’ with a deep fascination in photography which stemmed from my late father’s obsession with lenses, light meters, tripods. He had a vast collection of photography books which I used to ‘steal’, put up my jumper and take to my box room!

At 20 something I had already invested in an Olympus OM10 SLR from the camera exchange in Southampton, with my then girlfriend insisting I also buy a telephoto lens and wide angle. By this time I was hooked.

Three years ago I picked up another camera this time a DLSR 850d Canon as well as a broken Nikon, I wasn’t inspired by mainstream, but un-conventional parameters ..getting into positions that weren’t normal.

But hey , how can I be normal when I attempt to steer the Puddings!
