Wilfred Thesiger was born in 1910 to the British Consul-General in Addis Ababa, Abyssinia (modern day Ethiopia). He spent his early years in Addis Ababa. During this time, he developed an interest in photography after he was allowed to play with his father’s roll-film box brownie. It was also in Addis where Thesiger’s curiosity of foreign cultures blossomed. Both of these interests defined his life and by the time of his death in 2003, he was credited for being one of the last great explorers and an important anthropological photographer.

I am becoming better (at a very slow pace) in producing analogue pictures. Yay! It's just like they say, "practice makes perfect". I know I won't be able to have anything close to perfect, but I will have something that's worth being framed in the family room or sent as a post card.

Johnny Martyr shoots almost exclusevely on 35mm film, with classic manual cameras. Some of his pics have been featured in several Baltimore and New York art galleries.
