“Snapping Point is the London based photoblog of Danny Horner. Featured on the site is a sample of the photographs he has taken since the summer of 2000, which is roughly the time he started thinking about photography as something more than just an aide-memoire. He shot on film until 2005 when he abandoned ship in favour of the ease of digital; and hasn’t really been back since.”

“He’s guessing that probably much less than 1% of the photographs he has taken, and continues to take, will make it on here. Those that do will be drip fed onto the site with no mind for chronology, so that recent photos will, sometimes, sit next to ones several years old.”

“Although he would describe himself, if you asked, as nothing more than a hobbyist he was paid real money to do the photography for this music video.

“Some vaguely technical information for those interested, Danny has owned and used, in roughly this order: an Olympus OM-10, a Lomo LC-A, a Sigma SA-7, several one-use disposables, a Polaroid SX-70, a Canon G6 and a Nikon D40. With all the images appearing here, whether film or digital, optimization and general tinkering has been done, if at all, with Photoshop Elements 6.”

“Danny Horner was born in 1974 and grew up in a home counties village. He moved to a city as soon as he was old enough to know how, and has spent all but the first few months of the 21st century residing in London, where he attempts to reconcile a thirst for creative perfection with a chronic and debilitating laziness.”
