Author Description

The name of Colin Gifford is synonymous with a particular style of artistic railway photography. During the last decade of steam operation he was one of a number of railway photographers who travelled widely recording the steam scene in a slightly more avant garde and impressionistic way than many of his contemporary and more traditional photographer colleagues. As a designer, he was briefly employed by Ian Allan Ltd and his photographs were one of the features of Modern Railways magazine during this period. -- Publisher description.
