#220 When the NY Times publish your photostory... Apr 26, 2021

Show notes

Photographer and National Geographic contributor Roff Smith is more used to being on an airliner travelling to his next international story, than working within a ten mile radius of his home on the south coast of England. Featured recently by the New York Times for a wonderful lockdown enforced project where the lanes around his home became his muse, every day he'd cycle for hours to make self portraits during his trips out. Today, the Art of the ride, journeys from my doorstep. See the pictures and follow the links on the SHOW PAGE.

#217 The movie man who 'buys' your house for the day Apr 19, 2021
