The term red eye describes the photographic effect achieved when light from a camera flash is reflected from the back of the eye or retina, usually through a dilated pupil. Red eye is often the torment of amateur photographers and it is probably safe to say that few realise that they have taken a retinal photograph. I have intentionally been taking images of the retina at the Oxford Eye Hospital assisting the medical team in the recording and diagnosing of a variety of ophthalmic disorders since 2004.
When I first started this website my main role was photographing the eye. Over the years I have been involved in a number of non-photographic projects and my role has developed allowing me to create visual content using mixed media which I have included in this website.
Hope you enjoy looking at my work and please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Thank you,
Jonathan.
