About Mikael Barnard
(Top Expert on this page)

Expertise
Please note due to a large volume of questions to which I either cannot or do not wish to answer please be advised I will only answer questions pertaining to alternative photographic processes, questions in other areas of photography will be rejected. However, if it's information on alternative photographic processes you're after...!

Experience
I have both a GCSE and an A-level in photography and much experience with event photography, I now persue photography as a hobby.

Education/Credentials
GCSE photography-B, A.S. Level-C, A-Level-D - nothing wrong with my work, seems the exam board are pretty narrow minded when it comes to alternative photographic processes :-(
