Emsworth Arts Trail

Ben Timmis will be displaying his photographs during all 5 days of the Art Trail: April 22nd, 23rd, 29th 30th, and May 1st
He originally spent 4 months in a professional darkroom learning traditional photographic development and enlarging techniques before turning to digital photography in 2003.
He is a semi-retired Consultant Radiologist and has been taking photographs for the past 60 years – now mainly around Emsworth where he lives with his wife Sue and dog Daisy. His photograph entitled “Isolated Together” was chosen by the National Portrait Gallery as one of the final 100 (out of over 31,000 submitted) to represent Britain during the pandemic in a project called ‘Hold Still’. His photograph was included in a book commemorating the event and on an advertising board outside Waterloo Station in London. He was awarded Licentiate of The Royal Photographic Society in 2022.
