Danny Jackson (@barksey) is a street and documentary photographer based on Canvey Island in Essex, known for his interest in people and the small quirks that reveal character. A natural people-watcher, Danny sees street photography as an extension of that fascination.

In 2019 he began The Eccentrics, a portrait series capturing individuals who live life on their own terms, photographed in the places where they feel most themselves. His wider projects, including Eccentric Essex and This is Essex, explore eccentricity, personality and everyday British life with humour and empathy. A co-founder of the Street Badass photography group, Danny has exhibited work in both London and Rome.
