Some final Sunsets for the Year
Reading Time: < 1 minuteWe do love a good sunset here, and as we approach the turn of the year again, here’s just a few more that I have found lying about on the hard drives, in and amongst other sets this year.

Fish Eyes on Hyde Park
Reading Time: 3 minutesI have been playing a little more with the fish eye adapter. We got the chance to visit the old St Marks church in Woodhouse where I again had the same issues as in the London Underground, with lack of light. Some more interesting shots …
Mushroom Season
Reading Time: 2 minutesSometimes I do think that I am a little odd. I found these mushrooms growing on the edge of campus, and of course just had to get the camera and grovel about in the wet to take photos…
Autumn Colours
Reading Time: 2 minutesI took myself round and about Woodhouse Moor for a lunchtime walk, and to try and capture some of the colours of Autumn. Autumn is a funny month, nature displays some of the best colours of the year, but the weather so often fades these …
Textures of Dereliction
Reading Time: 3 minutesThese are some more images from Hyde Park and the surrounding areas, taken alongside some of my research photos – these are much more an aesthetic project, aiming to capture the micro textuaral details, isolating these from the full scene. Though of course these are …
Alternative Views of Hyde Park
Reading Time: 2 minutesThis is broadly just another round up of some photos from Hyde Park over the last few months. I guess the theme is looking beyond the expected, and picking out some interesting vignettes, both on a micro and macro scale, which add to the body …

Reading Time: 2 minutesLight Night is an annual event in Leeds, that has been going for a few years now in which spaces in the city are taken over and become art installations and performance spaces. I had a play with my new(ish) camera and got a few …

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 …
A Visual Ethnography of Hyde Park
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 …
Cranes and Sunsets
Reading Time: 2 minutesI guess if there’s any theme to this it’s more of the idea of looking up at the sky, but really it’s just posting a few good images. I shot the cranes over town the other morning. I loved the way they fade into the …
Winter Crispness
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.
Unity Day 2008
Reading Time: 2 minutesIts that time of year again, when all the city’s munters and loons congregate on Hyde Park. Hyde Park Unity day began as a community kick back to the 1995 riots in Hyde Park, though over the years it has become bigger and more messy, …
