Photography in the urban arena, often encompassing landscape, architecture and street photography to explore the impact of humans’ interaction and editing of the terrain, in the space of cities, whether people are present in the images or not.
Reading Time: < 1 minuteIt is a horrible, wet day. It is supposed to be July, and I have a new camera and it is chucking it down. Of course the rain and the urban grit can make some great visual statements, but for now, these will be through …
Reading Time: 2 minutesI’ve been toying with this idea for a while (and have already had a couple of people saying, “about bloody time”). I’ve got the bug here, I’m really enjoying learning properly about photography. So I have bought myself a Canon EOS 1000D with an 18-55mm …
Reading Time: 4 minutesFor this month’s London extravaganxa I decided to go out a bit further afield and take a trek out to Greenwich and the Docklands. A long time ago I went on a scout trip staying on the Lord Amory and remember a night walk including …
Reading Time: 4 minutesSo this is starting to bring together the ideas I have for my Dissertation, and the reason I bought this little camera last year. In the course of my life in Hyde park, I have been acting the role of ‘researcher participat[ing]’, as Herbert Gans …

Reading Time: 3 minutesThis is very exciting. I have been asked to serve on a development user group for some software that we use at work, which is meaning some trips to London over the next year. And very kindly the company has agreed to book my return …
Reading Time: < 1 minuteAs, sometimes happens, we found ourselves wandering round Hyde Park at some ungodly hour of the morning, in the crisp, winter frost. I took these and thought I’d just stick them up here.
Reading Time: 2 minutesAnother dreary day, save photographically by the beautiful way the light has fallen in the ginnel at the top of Grosvenor Road and on the track aside to Walkers Lane. We walked up through Headingley to the top of The Ridge below Meanwood for this. …
Reading Time: 2 minutesTried to take a nice walk up to Kirkstall today, inspired by some very good shots I got previously round the canal, but the weather was very much against me. It actually decided to pelt it down with sleet breifly, which was not particularly lovely. …
