Terry Why
I was born in London, England 1955 then gained a degree in photography at Eastbourne College of Art, Sussex. My original interest was in the field of astronomy. This started me working seriously with photography for the first time. My cameras were coupled with telescopes to record deep space astronomical images- my fascination for photography was kindled. I increasingly turned my camera towards the terrestrial world, which because of the personal creativity involved, became my preference and eventually my profession.
Most of my work now is concentrated on hi-tech, conceptual, and travel imagery. One of my specialties is the making of hand-colored multi-image pictures. These are created by montage or double printing techniques, produced first as black and white prints. They are subsequently colored with dyes, transparent paints, and inks to achieve the desired effect - which can be extremely subtle or, if wanted, brightly graphic.
