In the late 70s I lived in London and joined a wonderful photography group led by the equally wonderful Gerry Badger (who wrote, among many other things, The Genius of Photography). I learnt how to develop and print, and appreciation of photography through the work of photographic greats including Imogen Cunningham, Diane Arbus, Edward Weston, Eugène Atget, to name just a few. I got a taste for photography as a fine art.
