Mike Taylor

A keen photographer since I was a young lad, when I used to borrow my father's old Kodak bellows camera that held 620 roll film. Later went on to Canon 35mm, Bronica medium format, and even 5x4 format. I have had success over the years in photo salons all over the world, and have been privileged to have exhibited photos at Lacock, the birthplace of photography in UK. I'm now a die-hard LUMIX fan, and love the Micro-Four-Thirds concept and system, which affords me great photographic quality and fantastic equipment that's light enough and small enough to carry anywhere. I no longer use Photoshop, since I have grown to love Affinity (which is free) and use it for all processing and creative work now. I find its luminosity and sharpening controls are superior, and tend to achieve more pleasing colour balance generally.
