16. Jim McKinniss

My name is Jim McKinniss and I am a retired mathematician and software engineer. I now spend most of my time traveling and making photographs. I do this because I love both of these things. They expand my understanding of the world.


I have an eclectic interest in image making and wil photograph whatever interests me. Most of my work is done in projects. These can be one day projects which are more like photo shoots or projects that span many years. My longest project is photographing Venice, Italy and it has lived for nine years now.


Current and past projects include the horses of the Badlands in South Dakota, the homeless of Los Angeles, Cemeteries in Italy and the Mask Festival in Venice.
