Jack Spencer

Some years ago when I used to buy B&W photo mag, there was an article about this chappie - Jack Spencer. More importantly, there were some wonderful images he'd made. Loved them immediately . Apparently his work was darkroom based at the time - the prints finished with coating of Oleopasto or perhaps wax. Either way they sang I'm told. Now his work is digital but it's still lovely work. Go and have a look, you know you want to. And there are books. Native Soil being a fav or mine but if money is no object try this.

Now, you'll have to excuse me, the sun has arrived and I have a cyanotype to print!
