The beginning of self-conciousness - 1966

 

A History of my personal Photography

Self Portrait

My parents gave me a Ricoh twin lens reflex camera for my birthday. It had a self-timer enabling me to take this first self-portrait at a summer camp in Onrus, near Cape Town.

It was about this time that my brother and I started developing and printing our own photographs.
