He regularly gives talks and lectures to photographic societies and clubs and also runs workshops on photographic subjects as diverse as wildlife and nudes. Through his website www.photoclassic.co.uk he offers the opportunity for interested photographers to join him on his safaris in Scotland and Kenya, which tend to be more adventure than trip! Aged 55 and married with three grown-up children and one grandchild, Howard got his first camera aged 8 in 1970 and has been keenly photographing the World around him since 1984.
