About me

Mike Finley

I am mainly interested in monochrome photography. My photographs are mainly floral and landscape images, but also include some monochrome infrared images.

My photography has been selected for exhibitions in the UK and France. I was selected for the inaugural Swansea City Exhibition of International Photography in Wales, and the Hype Gallery in Arles, France.

My work has also been published in a number of photographic books and magazines in recent years, primarily in those concentrating on monochrome photography. Images have appeared in 'Black and White Photography', 'Mono', and 'Digital Photography' magazines. I've also had work selected for three editions of 'Best of Friends', an annual yearbook of photography.

    — on 2009-05-19

    I’ve said I’ll enter the Cotswold Monochrome salon this year, so the time has come to decide on four images to submit, as submissions close next week. I’m not good at making decisions! I’ll probably include ‘devastation‘ in the set (Iron Keld in the Lake District), one more recent image, and a couple of older ones. I’ve [...]

It was a very unusual week - anyone who has visited [...]
