Ozzy, or Ozzy The Wizzard, or Ozzman as he may sometimes be called is is known for spinning the turn tables and taking some of the best shots at motorsporting and surfing events. We got to talk to Ozzy and find out a bit more about his photography.
Do you have any nicknames?
Ozzy is my nickname, my real name is Charles. What do you do for a living?
I’m a DJ. How long have you been in photography?
I would say about 10 years. What got you interested in photography?
A good friend of mine asked me to keep his camera for him while he was away, and the rest is history. How would you describe your style?
Not sure I have a style. What camera(s) do you use? Do you have a preference in camera? Why?
I have a Canon 50d, I’ve always used Canon, I’m comfortable with Canon so no need to change. What is your favourite piece of equipment?
My Sigma 170 to 500mm lens What is your favourite spot/area to photograph?
Soup Bowl Bathsheba. What photo are you most proud of?
They are too many to really have a favorite, that’s like asking a parent who’s your favorite child. 5 words which friends would use to describe you?
Generous, funny, crazy, loyal, cool. Other than photography, what else do you like to do?
DJing, liming with friends and watching motorsport and surfing. Do you have any online pages to promote your photography (facebook, flickr, pinterest, etc)? What are they?
Only a Facebook profile for now. What advice would you give someone who is contemplating exploring photography as a hobby?
Get a camera, and go and take some pics.
