A conversation with Colin Ford CBE
Not sure this has been mentioned anywhere here but the RPS have done a few interesting videos recently. This one features Colin Ford, the curator and author of books on Julia Margaret Cameron and British photography history in general.
If you don't know Mr Ford the host does provide an introduction then, unfortunately, there are a few minutes of technical difficulties so if you want the main presentation fast foward to 9 minutes! Hope you find it interesting. https://youtu.be/MDIU437VzV8
