Today in Dublin, I went to photograph what I thought was a parade. They grabbed my camera & pushed Steve over. They then kicked him in the head, unable to get up they continued to kick him. They were Schalke football hooligans. I'm so appalled & disgusted!! #schalkehooligans

I'm a photographer I can take photos in public, and no, it was all drums and fun to begin with. It's not ok to try to attack a young woman or kick a 70 year old man. You have a sick mind.

It's always a risk being a photographer yes. I've photographed all over the world from tribal villages to hard protests... However, doesn't make it ok to kick a 70 year old man in the head when he's already on the ground for a friendly football game. Do tennis fans do this?

This self-portrait in the mirror was when I noticed my hair starting to get patchy & thin.I took this on my much-loved Pentax 6x7 camera which I used throughout the project. It's a heavy, bulky camera which uses 120 size film but I love it. #bbcstories #selfportrait #nhs #cancer

Susan was once a commentator for the Eastbourne Eagles speedway team. I spent some time talking to her, she told me it made her day as she felt very lonely. This is a common issue with older people. This portrait is part of an ongoing project about Eastbourne. @britcultarchive

It's World Cancer Day & ten years ago I was diagnosed with stage 4b Hodgkin lymphoma. This photograph was taken on my last day of chemotherapy. I looked unfamiliar, almost alien, but from this point on it was the start of my recovery. #worldcancerday🎗#nhs #cancer #selfportrait

Thank you. We have received hundreds of kind messages such as this. We are also aware that these were not representative of the real Schalke fans. 🙏

It's National Cancer Survivors Day today. Thinking of those going through cancer treatment right now. I was diagnosed with stage 4b Hodgkin Lymphoma 11 years ago. I made a photo-documentary & this triptych of self-portraits is from diagnosis-remission. #nationalcancersurvivorsday
