Orientalism4/18/2019 Bathed in the golden evening sunlight sits a Japanese man, motionless. Like a portly middle-aged buddha. A picture of Oriental spirituality to my Western eyes, until his wife appears from behind a tree from where, with imposing lens, she had been photographing him against the glowing backdrop of York Minster, towering above the scene.
Centrifugal4/17/2019 The power of photographs is centrifugal, drawing our eyes into those of others, seeing as they have seen and will see.

Unframed4/11/2019 Photography as a means of presenting the viewer with the opportunity of unframing the images presented.
