Change of season

Back in the park, what stands out, apart from the trees' foliage growing strongly, is the change of usage. With the festival season all kinds of human presence is moving into the park and where we saw a shy green emerging in Spring we now find cars, tents and fences marking the urban presence.

Shoes

Inspired by my friends comment about shoes, I became interested in this new perspective. A rather different angle to look at, its amazing how much shoes reveal about a person.

Sunny afternoon in London

We had decided to meet up at Somerset House and look at some of their current exhibitions when we were surprised by a very sunny afternoon. Quick to change our plans, we decided to sit in the yard and muse about life instead. This is one of several images that composed itself before my camera that afternoon.

Black and white

Back in the streets of London, I've taken my little project onto the platform and into the train. To me this environment had a similar feel to the pedestrianised areas and tunnels - anonymous, timeless and lonely. On our own, on our way, without looking much around or connecting to the world around us.

From above

Inspired by my street photography project, I took exploring anonymity and distance a step further, and, looking down onto a specific area, I observed how people walking in and out of my picture field created a flow, a pattern, a continuity.

 

Shadows on the wall

While exploring this exhibit at the Tate Modern, what stood out for me were the 'paintings' the shadow the visitors projecting to the walls. Adding a few light effects from the projector and mobile phones, the experience developed into a delightful play of shadows and light.
