Going Public
Been wrapping three photographs ready for their delivery to Hutton’s tomorrow. Quite excited about displaying them for a month. There is a competition where the viewing public vote on the best pictures/artists. It’s a bit like a real version of getting Facebook ‘likes’. No high hopes but it should be interesting.
Been working on the final images from my trip to Northumberland in September. There are two themes one is coastal and the other is Holy Island. Next step is to make final decisions on printing them up and getting them on the website. I have about 12 images which are lying around the studio just waiting for the final look, adjustment and fine tweaking. There are 4 that I am really happy about and work as part of my new direction and will make limited edition prints.
New Book
Just taken delivery of the latest book from Beyond Words (see earlier post). It’s from a new (to me) photographer called Jeffrey Conley. The monograph is titled ‘Winter’ and contains some wonderful evocative black and white prints of trees, mountains, hills all taken in winter. Some of them are almost abstract, high contrast images of tree trunks, snow fall. Others are larger images of landscapes shrouded in mist and fog to give a lower contrast image that you need to take time to observe.
