Glass jugs, illuminated

When is an image there but not there? This image tries to capture the idea of light and transparency. The back light is like a lightbox used for viewing slides, which is ironic given this was taken with a mobile phone - from one extreme of image making to another. The smoothness of the form of the jugs lends them a sculptural quality, too.

Looking through copper sculpture

I love looking through objects - it sometimes give a sense of separation between two states of being. Here, the intention was to balance the exposure of the sculpture in the foreground with the detail seen through the sculpture. There is also an ambiguity about the sculpture that creates an abstract image.

Red Hot

Another abstract image, that has been tinted red to give the impression of heat, untouchableness.

Blue Rivets

I was looking for subjects that would make good abstract images. I like the consistency of the colour and sense of infinity about the number of rivets on this bridge structure.

Gallery viewer

There is something about watching people viewing exhibts in art galleries that interests me. Maybe its the deep concentration on the viewer's face. I love the silouhette of my daughter in this picture and her reflection in the window.

On yer bike

One of my favourite images, shot on 35mm film. I love the shameless neglect of this bike, which was quite rusty, but is ridden to work every day by its owner.

French Landscapes

An overcast day, but I think this helped by creating diffused lighting and added to the calmness of the scene. These pictures were taken by the River Seine in Normandy, about 1 and an half hours drive from Paris, in Gaillard.
