15.  Colin Robinson
Quinque House, Deddington, OX15 0SR.
Telephone: 01869 338272
Colin Robinson's digital images derive from his original photographs. Initial creative decision-making - choice of film-stock, lens, viewpoint, 'moment' of exposure - is only the start. Computer techniques influence his thinking; while keeping them essentially photographic, Colin allows the processes overtly to transform his pictures into graphic images. Colin sells limited edition dye sublimation and long-life prints.
