Vanishing point: Berlin Sap
It looks like a field, because it is a field, one that slopes gently up to a low ridge, 60 metres at its highest point, best appreciated either from a mile or so back in the open areas behind the old line. It looks like nothing much, close up it is just a slope and...
Vanishing Point: Essex Farm, The Eve brothers
I’m fortunate, I get to go to Ypres and the Somme and indeed various other bits of the Western Front fairly often, I do it mostly for my own vicarious pleasure/misery or whatever you find you want to call it. If I face facts it is I suppose a strange thing to...
Vanishing Point: Rosebeke
A strange day. I’ve been working very loosely on an ongoing project called ‘Vanishing Points’ for a while. I’m a bit of a fan of VPs, lots of artists are as a way of leading the eye into compositions, focussing the viewers mind. Kubrick for...
Hidden history: Doors of Perception
Sometimes the interesting things are hidden in plain sight and it’s remarkably easy to just overlook stuff like bits of public art because you see them all the time, these are just such a thing. I am a lover of city hall, I like the shape it makes in the sky,...

Many of my photos are influenced by the great masters of poetry in China from a thousand years ago. They have soul. I also get inspiration from music... ....They give me inspiration, especially during my work in the darkroom.

Britain BC (Part 1) - video dailymotionFrancis Pryor's history of pre-Roman Britain from the Stone Age on (I'm posting mostly European history for the time being). This part is about agriculture, copper mining and early tribal structures. the second is better and focuses on the henges etc. Bettany Hughes' "Seven Ages of Britain" is my ja...
