Fred Robinson


Fred had taken photographs for most of his life but the images that mark him as different are those that he took around Southend-on-Sea. Most were taken candidly with a camera around his neck or, latterly, with a small digital by his side.

The subjects were never aware he had taken the picture and all of them have been left 'as-is'.

However, documentary shots were not his only forte. His experiments over the years with darkroom techniques, gum-printing and, into his seventies, forays into digital manipulation mark him as a very singular artist.
