About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To use my skills as a photographer to fulfil myself.

ABOUT ME

I am easy going, adventurous and artistic . I photograph everything then try to sell the images. I have a good knowledge of modern photography and I am also interested in art. Favourite authors include John Updike. For poetry AE Housman and one or two others.

I have a website www.robertnorbury.com which has links to me on the social networks.

PHILOSOPHY

I am a creative individual who wants to leave his stamp on the world of photography. Through my teaching I hope to help others do the same.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn more about psychogeography. Its not as weird as it sounds, for me its about looking at and photographing the way that man relates to geography (built or otherwise) and vice versa.

I can teach photography and my knowledge of photographers and their work is extensive.
