Interview With The 2021 New York Photography Awards Winner \u2013 Sarah Morton<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q1. Can you introduce yourself and talk about how you got into photography?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m Sarah Morton and I was given my first camera when I was eight.  I loved taking photographs and when I left broadcasting with the BBC in 2002, my husband encouraged me to return to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q2. Where did you study photography?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I studied at the Glasgow School of Art as an evening student while I was working for BBC Scotland in Glasgow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q3. Do you remember your first shot? What was it?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think it was a picture of my late mother cutting up tomatoes when we lived in Izmir in Turkey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q4. What equipment do you use?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I now use a Nikon 850, but have used over the years a Ricoh, Pentax (various including a 67Medium format film camera), Hasselblad X-pan and when I finally moved to digital equipment I went with Nikon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q5. What do you hope to achieve?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goodness…. a big question!  Do you know, I just want to continue to make pictures that people like and respond to.  I love it when I sell an image to someone who wants to hang it in their house.  That to me is success!  Don’t get me wrong- I love winning awards and having my work acknowledged by the industry experts – that is really special – but if I can keep selling my work then I’ll be happy.  Of course, I’d love a gallery to “discover” me and help me do that, but until that happens, I’ll keep plugging away myself!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beached on the shores of Loch Linnhe in western Scotland is the wreck of an old fishing boat. Looking down on it is Ben Nevis \u2026 (read more at New York Photography Awards<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
