ABOUT DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY
EYEWITNESS IN MANCHESTER IS
A PRIME EXAMPLE of the pioneering use of digital photography to create
a picture-based online magazine.
Most of the earlier photographs
in Eyewitness in Manchester were taken with a Nikon SLR camera and captured
on Jessops 200 ASA negative film, scanned using the NIkon Coolpix film
scanner and enhanced in Photoshop on the Macintosh.

After experimenting from 1998
with a very basic Kodak DCS 100 digital camera and from 1999 with an Agfa
E-Photo 1280, I began in May 2000 to use the Nikon Coolpix 990 which completed
the transition to all-digital image capture and enhancement. This remarkable
camera has provided thousands of superb quality digital images many of
which are on display in Eyewitness in Manchester.
I first started using digital
imaging methods in October 1994 whilst still working in the Middle East.
Since then I have built up an enormous amount of experience and expertise,
with a huge portfolio of images.
