Photography
This set is about home, familiarity and security or menace. These are photographs of the light and life of the street at night around my neighbourhood in West London. The night light shows the familiar world literally in a different light, highlighting moods and atmospheres that day light makes commonplace. But also a lone bright window and the menace of the darkness.
People and waves on the stony beach at Seaford, Sussex. A picture metaphor for these battered times.
Ice and cold water, textures and colours not often seen in England. After nearly a week of hard frost, approaching -10°C overnight and hardly warmer in the daytimes, Keswick has been colder than Port Lockroy on the Antarctic Peninsular. The soft light, the colour of the ice and the sheen on the surface of the flowing but super-cooled water are all quite strange and took me back to a winters long ago when the water froze in the River Cam in Cambridge or the canals of the Amsterdam Ring.
South Downs ridge walk between Ditchling Beacon (248m.) and the Jack and Jill windmills at Clayton. The views are big and wide so I’ve printed to very low colour, nearly black and white, to show particularly the patterns which make this linear landscape special.
