Ted Leeming starts a series of posts on his work

Ted Leeming

From traditional landscape and the impressionist, to more recent explorations of land use, climate and biodiversity, my work centres around an evolving consideration of place that forms the ‘Zero Footprint’, low carbon concept I share with my wife and fellow photographer, Morag Paterson. More recent works include the collaborative Energise, Fantastic Forest Festival and Artful Migration residencies, Where the Wild Things Are, and an immersive ‘Commute’ - by ebike - from Scotland to Italy.

My photographic career/obsession/love/passion – call it what you will - began with a flattened instamatic 110 film camera. Sleek. Fitted the pocket. Easy load cassette film. It even extended to reveal the shutter release. As a bit of a gadget freak even then I confess to being instantly hooked though technical “control” was not one of its stronger points. And so I quickly progressed to my beloved Ricoh KR10 Super which stayed with me for many years and was where I learnt the “rules” of the game. I was having unending fun and the thought of heading out with the camera filled me with delight each and every time.
