My degree project continues. These are some more emerging content for my edit on being just outside or in-between AONBs The fly-tipping is an interesting one in that I was on the team that introduced Landfill Tax. My role as Business Analyst on that project saw beyond the revenue take and green aspirations at the […]
equals Historic & Contemporary exhibition work and ephemera work now hanging in the UCS Waterfront building
2013 has been a very busy year for a small group of enthusiastic students on my BA (Hons) Photography course. The original idea to hang some work outside of Uni came from Mel Belton in the first year but general apathy prevailed. Mel persisted however and in January this year we got together to try […]
Swansong
Photographing on the edges for my degree project discovers hidden gems in this fine county of Suffolk. This picture just off the Strand outside the AONB by the width of a road was a surprise find.
Wrong side of the track 2………….
Today has been a whirlwind of a day. Truly and most utterly inclement weather this morning saw a delayed start to UCS work with renewing AOP membership, ordering even more film (where does it all go?) and then calling Sam Mellish of ‘Roadside Britain’ fame to ask if he could help out with our degree […]
Waiting……………
I happened upon this scene whilst on my way to QA the catalogue for the forthcoming Trafalgar Art show. I had forgotten the allotment gardens existed just this side of the railway viaduct but they looked beautiful in the drizzly damp Ipswich I was walking through. This old lady seemed to sum up everything I […]
Wrong side of the track
I am working on my degree project. My aim is to subvert the common notion of what is beautiful in the landscape. For the most part many of us see municipal planting schemes and the relative mundane and anodyne planting schemes proffered by architects, highways engineers and town and country planners. Often, just a stones […]
Poor project management
The amount of time that is wasted through poor project management is something that irritates me given my background. The level of internecine conflict that can be caused by the lack of a clear programme leader and clear visibility of outline costs, other team deliverables and timescales is beyond belief. Add to this the inappropriate […]
By Any Means
A brief flash on the screen whilst I caught up with By Any Means the other night showed this piece of art just off Brick Lane The above taken on Nikon P6000 The original Man at Work was taken on Agfa Vista 200 on an FE2
A Millstone around the dock
I have never been a fan of ‘The Mill’ on Ipswich Waterfront. It has proved to be useful as a photographic subject but the building sits uneasily in its surroundings and add to that the fact that it is unoccupied it is hardly a real asset for Ipswich. I was surprised to see on-line footage […]
AONB Brantham revisted
The lull in the weather saw me up well before dawn with a boot full of large format film, Ektar, Portra, HP5+, FP4+ and a gaggle of cameras. Anyway some results from a busy day. This HP5+ was rated at ISO 320 and tray developed in ID11. I’ll revisit the MOD54 and try again as […]
