A Year of Changing Views

Back in mid October 2016 I started to regularly photograph the view out my kitchen window. Last year, when the project was 5 years old I thought that I could think of it as complete – after all, 5 is half a decade! However, despite this attempt at closure I still found myself inspired to … Read more

Compositions & Colourful Hair

Seeing people with colourful dyed hair is pretty commonplace, especially here in London. But sometimes there’s an added element that makes me want to take a picture, and that is usually to do with the relationship between the colourful hair and its immediate environment. This series of images features people whose colourful hair visually interacts … Read more

5 Years of Changing Views

I’ve been photographing a particular view – the view out my  kitchen window – for five years. I started in mid October 2016, at the height of Autumn and initially chose 40 images taking me up to October 2017. The one year project was featured in the December 2017 issue of the newspaper Kentishtowner.   I decided … Read more

It’s Raining/A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall

It’s been particularly wet the last few days.

The word STOP, seen … Read more

My view at the end of February

Below are three differing versions of the same view. The first was taken early this morning; the so-called Beast from the East making its snowy imprint on the landscape:   This very Christmassy one was taken at midday:   The image below was taken four days ago. I was looking out at the hazy white light … Read more

Vapour trails and smoky images

I’ve recently returned from a brief visit to Paris where I witnessed the final hours of the Tour de France. At one point some jet planes flew past, too fast for me to see but leaving a trail of blue, white and red vapour. I am assuming these are the colours of the French flag … Read more
