All change…

I’ve just updated my website, and now it contains mostly personal work shot in the last year. The dreadful business conditions of the past year have had their positives and I don’t think I would have been able to generate the work on this site if I had been as busy as I’d been in previous years. Every cloud has a silver whatsit and all that. I’ve finally managed to wrestle the Ebony camera into working with a digital back and the work in the series ‘The Community’ has benefited from the slow and methodical way of working this camera has forced upon me. It really is as slow as using 5×4 film for those doubters who think that digital cannot recreate a large format way of doing things slowly and with pre-visualisation, it really is the only way to go about it. I even have a black cloth to put over my head so that I can see the image on the digital camera LCD screen more effectively.

Architecture doesn’t feature as highly here as in the past, but in many ways it remains a big focus of what I do, though I’ve always struggled against the formalities of it, and my response often is too go too off the wall. Its fun though.
