Hi Alan,
Have just had a brief whizz through the site and I am well impressed...the Speakers' Corner set has 'serious legs' and I like the way you have tightly cropped the heads, this is certainly one time eye contact is important, to bring out the eccentricity. These people are on the edge, when they get to the point of having to stand up on the soap box to make themselves heard, I think sometimes I am close to that point...anyway bravo! and I hope you are going to extend this powerful piece....best regards ..Paul.

Hi Alan,
I dont know you, but was very impressed with you web site and the article in the RPS journal. A number of years ago I used to do enviromental portraiture, mainly in black and white, but for the last 10years have mainly done Natural History. However, seeing your work has made me realise what I have been missing, and you have wHet my apetite to start doing portraiture again. I would love to go to one of your talks, and I see you are doing one at Midhurst Camera Club. Living in Colchester in Essex, its abit of a journey, so I was wondering if you have any plans to do any lectures in any of the clubs north of the river ? If so, I would love to come along and see your prints.

Hi Alan,
I followed your link from DCM and your shots here are truly stunning. I love doing portrait work and seeing your work has inspired me even more. I am relatively new to photography and do all my work unpaid at the moment just to get the experience. Thank you for letting me see what REAL photography is about, catching the person not just the scene. I look forward to seeing more of your work.
Kindest regards
Steve.

Some fabulous characters cpatured very cleverly. Did you have to get permission from everyone? Do you ever use colour? I think B & W is very effective, and of course when printed tends to "fix" permanently.
