Camden
Taken in Camden at about 9.30ish. Best time to get the locals before the tourists arrive en mass. This picture is a bit of a creative experiment. Light and shade, people visible, people in silhouette, reflection. Taken from a window from a famous pub/music venue (see bar stool). It’s an odd one because your eye…

Chinese Chickens
Happy New Year Chinese Chickens an archive photo taken in China Town last year. A mass of confusion left for you to figure out what is going on? Probably a message in the photo somewhere?

Green on Blue
A wet, gloomy and miserable day in Central London and nothing very much inspiring in photographic terms UNTIL I went through the subways at the BFI Imax and saw this blue subway with green lights.

Taken on the South Bank in Central London next to the Thames. The thought process was the arch shape of the foreground bridge and the lines it makes, then the bridge in the background was clearly visible with people walking across in the space left in the frame but it just lacked something and this…

Whitewash
A window with some whitewash on the inside? Something that caught my eye on a lane just off Bishopsgate in the City. I love the brush strokes, question is how can you make a photo with it? Took about 30 photos the previous day, none were any good, came back the following day, took another…

Self Portrait
Taken on a canal bridge in Docklands in East London, over the Regents Canal. Looked around at what could be a possible picture but nobody was around. Waited a few more minutes. Still nothing. Looked down into the pea soup saw MY silhouette and thought “there you go” and the rest is history. A lovely…
