Myk Briggs is a physicist who has been taking pictures for over 40 years

He has an interest in photography which could be reasonably described as `broad church' and even possibly obsessive !

He has chased around the world taking pictures of wildlife and in September 1997 visited the Arctic Circle to photograph woodpeckers

In 1999 he lived with an unphotographed jungle tribe in India to document their lifestyle and has exhibited the results at several venues

A book about the tribe will use his pictures as documentary illustrations

In one of his large studios you may find him taking very high speed exposures of flying owls or exploding party poppers, however his main interest is human photography, be it candid, fashion or figure

He was recently President of Oswestry Photographic Society.

As a member of the RPS, he is currently LRPS and pursuing his way up the Society's Distinctions

Some evenings he will be judging photo club work or local artists efforts

An active member of BorderLand Visual Arts - he documents artists work at a discount as part of the Foundation committment to art

Although he mainly uses 35mm, he is experimenting with a 5x4" view camera and lots of digital paraphenalia including even high speed digital pinhole images

He recently built a new darkroom for monochrome in spite of mixing his avid interest in computers with his photography

Recent efforts to use chroma blue and projected backgrounds have brought forth some unusual images

He has had some work published and you can find many of his pictures on the Internet

Currently he has virtually forsaken film for the inevitable and inexorable swing towards the Nikon D1,2 & (X) series.
