I’ve been following Thomas since the early days, when the extent of his travels was the Lake District in the UK.
I’ve always been drawn to the authenticity of Tom. He brings you into his world and exposures his failures as well as successes, which I feel is important for those who follow.
Following Thomas has brought peace in my shooting – I no longer get anxious when not able to find satisfying compositions, and more willing just to enjoy time out with the camera.
Just don’t ask him about his ICM work……….
