To the side of the ‘city park’ – Bradford’s redemption – is the pre-existing courts complex and police station. The latter emptied to make way for redevelopment and improve the lots of the copper, the latter showing it’s age. This zine looks at the interaction between the buildings, the controlled natural elements and some of…… Continue reading H.M. Coroners Post
Category: At a place and time
These are projects where I prepare a series of images relating to a specific event or visit to a location.
Final Resting Place

Shadows cast on memorial stones in a local graveyard balanced with images of a former home for the elderly – captured after it’s closure and a significant fire. Itself teetering on permanent demise.

Kirkstall Festival

In addition to my usual digital imagery I also took along my Voigtlander Brilliant and captured some…… Continue reading Kirkstall Festival

The commute
The road-trip is a classic subject for documentary photography; in this project we take the mundane journey – the daily commute and use this as the basis for this series of images.
