Peter Upton (1935-2010) saw things differently and his view of the world pushed camera club photography beyond the complacency and familiarity of the commonplace. Rules were more of a challenge than a framework to Pete and he deliberately set out to re-write the rule book. If a judge said you couldn't or shouldn't, Pete would and in the process created something new and inspirational. His many awards are testament to his photographic legacy and this book features the images that he was widely known and admired for.
