Bob H. Miller does not consider himself to be a photographer, more a visual artist that employs photographic image and/or techniques in his art. Miller describes his approach to photography as “somewhere between low tech and no tech”. He has produced work as varied as intimate photo collage using the Polaroid SX70 and large scale (40x60) black & white photograms.
