Hi Andy,
Sorry this is late. have been hectic in Cape town.
There are a few question marks in strange places in the text on my page.
Some are instead of apostrophes and some seem to replace brackets.
Please take a look and see if you can correct it:
Thanks
Herschel

I was born in Cape Town, South Africa and at the age of three moved to
Rhodesia (Now Zimbabwe) where I grew up.
I began my photography career in the photography club at Guinea Fowl
high school, near Gweru. I have since created images, lectured, and done
workshops in Europe, Africa, Asia and Canada. I have work in permanent
collections around the globe and my work has appeared in many major
international publications.
The position of HoD of the photography department, at the Higher College
of Technology, in the Sultanate of Oman (Persian Gulf), came to me
through Andrew Davidhazy, via a notice posted on the PhotoForum. I have
been running the department, photographing and teaching here for the
past 6 years.
In August 2010 I will make another "Big move". I will set up a new life
and, no doubt, series of new adventures, in New Mexico. (Either
Albuquerque or Santa Fe - I haven't made up my mind yet) where, in time,
I hope to set up a retreat for photographers.
I envision a place where a photographer can come and work on his/her
images in a quiet space and in a serene and beautiful environment with
highly qualified aesthetic and technical support if required. I also
intend to do a little commercial photography, specializing in
venue/food/beverage photography. Hence the collection of images here.

Yeah. Just delete the question marks after figuring out which
punctuation sign is supposed to be there, and insert the correct mark.
Some are quotes and some are parens.
