Making (small) Waves
On a recent visit to Cornwall I had fun making a small waves project in the evening sun. As the sun shone from a low angle the backlit waves reveled their beauty. In a number of wave triptychs I make the most of the small waves as they reach the beach. Constantine Bay is a special place, as is the evening sun light that delivers the backlit magic!
Moving Street
Most photographs of London seek to freeze movement, capturing moments, forever static.
But London moves, all day and night. The people, the traffic, the weather, everything Is on the go and nothing is still for long.
The Moving Street project uses the idea of movement to capture the joy and complexity of a very busy city...
Speakers' Corner
People have been sharing their views at Hyde Park's Speakers' Corner since the mid 1800's. You can turn up and speak whenever you want, but if you would like an audience then Sunday afternoon (from 2 to 4pm) is the best time to get on your soap box. This is the time I usually visit, to record the people and issues being discussed each week...

Along with a group of fellow photographers we captured the moments that caught our eye...

This project is an ongoing exploration of Leake Street and its communities...
Protest and Hope
Our rights to protest and disrupt are slowly being chipped away by business and goverments.
But climate change, economic issues and politics still drive many to take to the streets.
My interest in documenting protest has grown into an ongoing project looking at the issues, individuals and communities who choose to channel their hope by taking to the street in protest...
Monopoly Photography
The Monopoly project ranges far and wide in London.
The Monopoly board provides the locations and act as a springboard for this photographic project.
From grand railway stations to down at heal high streets these locations have it all.
The images are predominantly street based, straying into abstract and documentary along the way...
