About

john robinson is a contemporary africa based photographer, he was born, turned 21, voted, and got his first job in ndola zambia, he is now living in south africa.

he is a photographer with a few cameras, and is privileged to sit in a while or just spend a moment or two in the lives of others and come away with images that convey an essence or aspect of what went on at that time.

john has had these opportunities for about 16 years and is privileged to have spent these moments with many other african people. He looks forward to these opportunities be they up the street, across the river or demanding of a packed bag, air tickets, extra music and some reading material.

john has a work history in 2 & 3 dimensional design, a design diploma and is a graduate of the market theater photography workshop in johannesburg south africa, he is an ongoing participant at newsuniversity.org

john is in the process of linking up with Zuma Press, he remains affiliated to www.southphoto.com SOUTH PHOTOGRAPHS is a unique constellation of south african photographers, passionate about their country and their continent, joined together in their commitment to image the undercurrents of life. SOUTH photographers have explored and documented south africa for a period of over forty years. the body of work is characterised by an approach that goes beyond the news. the collective vision reflects our social landscape, its people, its history and its survival in the continent and the world. SOUTH PHOTOGRAPHS houses a strong historical section on the resistance and protest against apartheid during the eighties and early nineties as well significant figures from that time.

with the advent of democracy in south africa, many of our photographers have been freed up to reinvent themselves and explore their world with freshness and new purpose.

john provides images for national and international print and new media and international developmental partnerships, and is involved in photographic education.

m8

any body else played with the m8 lately? i was happy to return the loan body and be done with the wires, charger, chips and battery etc. it felt much like my m6 but with the extra hassel of the extras that my film based kit just does not need. i use a m6 and back up with a m4 as a work kit, i do own a canon g5 for quickie shoots though.
