See the original post here for ‘how to’: Photography: Image Transfers onto Plaster Earlier this year I experimented with transferring some images onto plaster. I printed the images using a laser printer, coated them with acrylic gel, and transferred them onto a plaster surface. As planned, I kept them outside for the summer. They have…

Out and About: Salisbury Cathedral, Wiltshire
It was visiting Salisbury that originally convinced me that I could live without London; it really is a beautiful place. I’ve lost count of the amount of times I’ve visited the cathedral over the years. Sometimes I’m there as a tourist to take photos, see the Magna Carta, eat in the cafe which spills out…
Photography: Experimental Self Portraits With Screens
I saw this on my computer screen when I had been doing some reading on identity and researching the way text and image interact. For some reason it jumped out at me. I liked the idea of using a photograph of myself with this label attached: NO NAME. My name has changed several times over the…
Photography: Playing with Light, Movement & Pattern on the London Underground
I come from London and although I moved away 16 years ago, I still visit frequently. Although I could drive in, I prefer to take public transport for environmental reasons but also because on the train I can work, read a book or just sit and look out of the window. So I get a…

Photography: Spring on the Trailway
These are images from March 2019 and have been taken with an iPhone 8+ or a Fujifilm XT-2 with a cheap Meike lens. These images are part of a continuing series exploring the disconnect I feel from my environment, in a way I never did when I lived in London. Despite being surrounded by countryside,…
Photography: TinType App
I’ve really wanted to play with various historic photographic techniques for a long time, but I’m limited by the fact that my darkroom and my office are one and the same space. I also have time constraints. Like most people there are so many things I want to do but I just don’t have the…
Photography: Beach Cycling
These images were taken on 28th March 2019 on a cycle from Sandbanks in Poole to Bournemouth Pier, using an iPhone 8+ and a Fujifilm XT-2 with a cheap Meike wide angle lens. Mainly unedited at the moment, they represent a mixture of success and failure – I think it’s important to show both!
