John has been an active photographer for over 25 years.  He gained the Associateship of the Royal Photographic Society (RPS) in 1984 and the Fellowship the following year.  He is currently a member of the RPS Travel Distinctions Panel and Chair of the Visual Art Panel.  As well as Arena, he is a member of the London Salon and the Zoological Photo Club, membership of each is by invitation.

He has lectured widely on his photography, which has been exhibited extensively in Britain and in many countries around the world.  He has also acted as a selector at numerous exhibitions.

His own photography, perhaps against current trends, is extremely wide ranging.  he works in both monochrome and colour with a preference for colour transparencies.  As well as pictorial and creative work and images taken on worldwide travels he is an extremely active nature photographer with a particular love for Africa a continent he has visited over twenty times.  The images on display were taken in one of his favourite locations, Etosha, a huge national park in Namibia.
