Anthony Kirkham Photography

In the rain forest, Daintree NP, Qld

I have been involved in photography since the late 1970's when I took a keen interest in my later years of high school.

In the mid 1980s I worked in the television industry for two and a half years. During that time I achieved TVOCP certification. While not strictly related to photography, it helped me to gain a formal understanding of the funamental theory behind photography.

In 1990 I got serious again. I purchased an array of Nikon equipment prior to a trip to the United States on holidays. Some of the images from that trip are included in this site.

While I have had a few excellent mentors, I am largely self taught with much of my knoweledge coming from (trial and error type) experience. I have included a page of links to useful sites and to photographers I respect.

Over the last 15 years I have been fortunate to have travelled extensively to many parts of the world (often at someone elses expense). In the last 3 years my professional occupation (in IT) has taken me to most parts of Asia including Japan, Korea, China, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong and India. Unfortunately though, little time has been available for photography on those trips.
