Hi, I'm Stuart (Gingydadtog), a photographer based in Dudley in the West Midlands area of the UK.

 

My interest in photography began with a little 110 instamatic. I also dabbled with a 126 camera before saving my pennies and progressing to my first SLR, a Zenith 11, in the mid 80’s.

 

My first job allowed me to have the funds to progress to the realms of TTL metering and a Praktica BX20. I never considered it a serious hobby, but I just enjoyed getting out there and taking what interested me. My first step into the world of digital was a Canon Powershot A520 compatc which eventually gave way to a Panasonic TZ30. It wasn’t until 2014, and the purchase of my first DSLR that I began to take things a little more seriously.

​

I'm now fully entrenched in the world of mirrorless with Olympus but I've also started to reacquaint myself with 35mm by dragging the BX20 out of retirement. 

 

I'm a member of the Phoenix Railway Photographic Circle  where members try to produce creative and artistic images of railway related subjects which are more visually interesting.

​

My images are mainly of railway interest, but I also enjoy other genres including documentary, urban and portrait photography.

Thanks for stopping by.

Stuart.
