About

Whispering Cat Photography is the showcase for the photographic images and writings of retired public sector worker David Millier.

I’m an amateur enthusiast photographer who started rather unsuccessfully with film way back in the 1970s and am very grateful for the development of digital technologies.

I don’t have any of the major (or minor) international salon successes to quote as is traditional in bios, and I  have never bothered much with photo competitions. I did manage runner up in Practical Photography/Digital Photo magazine “Around the World” competition. I’ve also made the shortlist 3 times for the Take-a-view Landscape Photographer of the Year competition on the three occasions I entered – this is apparently not so impressive as it sounds, but is still mildly satisfying.

On the 12 March 2024, my submission for the LRPS Distinction was accepted and I was awarded Licentiate of the Royal Photographic Society status. I’m currently thinking about the next step, the ARPS (Associate) Distinction.

I  live in the UK in the outer suburbs of south London on the border with Kent.
