I'm trying to make things easier for the viewer to look around and perhaps find the image

“The Future is here and it keeps on coming….. !

Financial district of Indianapolis. The banks, the offices, the busy occupants, the grind the money, ‘The Escape Route’ 2015

The photograph captures the towering structures of the financial district in Indianapolis, resembling a futuristic cityscape reminiscent of an animated backdrop for Gotham City. The sleek, brutal with a sheen architecture and the composition of the overbearing buildings create a visual that is both striking and dynamic. The play of light and shadow further enhances the futuristic impression, adding depth and dimension to the scene. This juxtaposition of modern design and urban landscape evokes a sense of progress and innovation, painting a captivating picture of a city on the cutting edge of development.

I'm trying to make things easier for the viewer to look around, to locate the image that they have seen on line and to get in touch with me if there is something missing.

My photographs tend to go in and out of vogue with me and I am forever making adjustments to the edit settings. The colors in the recent Brooklyn Rooftops, NYC series is a fine example of this. The slightest touch of the white balance or correlation faders can change the mood completely. I like having this option. Working with such brilliant light and the super vivid colors in the graffiti allows me to find that almost cartoon like imagery, the cities of the future, the future is already here, Batman could live here.

The ‘Future is Here’ is a them the has run through a lot of my images over time always with a mind to put together an growing series. Here from 2015 both in Indianapolis is ‘Indi Stop & Indi Go’. and ‘Brutal Bird’ both favorites of mine.

75% OFF ? Limited Edition Prints - Night Swimmers 2013

Yes, you heard that right. I pulled out the old shots from the original shoot for the Night Swimmers back in 2013. I put them to one side, I can only. think because ‘Heavenly Swim’ & ‘Ascension Swim’ seemed so perfect. On a second look I’m happy to say that these too hold just as much wonder.

THE OFFER….

For October only, and for no reason in particular i’m offering the chance to take ownership of one of these limited edition prints of which there are only five. That’s right 1 of 5.

75% OFF is a silly price really but if you like my work and would like to own a piece then here’s a perfect opportunity. The ORDER page offers sizes and prices. The discount is already added so make your selection and you’re ready to go. Remember October 31st the offer closes, edition of only 5, grab yours before they run out or become too expensive.

The prints will be on a fine art baryta paper. The paper is heavy and textured, it accentuates the dappled light in the water currents. It also looks great on a hot press rag. The texture is of a dry chalky finish, a very nice matt which turns the greens electric. Great behind a very expensive museum glass (I imagine).

If you have any questions just email me. I love getting emails through my website. CONTACT

PLEASE NOTE: This offer only applies to the 4 revived Night Swimmers from the original shoot as shown in these pictures. Shipping is also not included, as I would soon be broke. Good luck everyone.

Dropping The NFT's

I’ve decided to delve into the NFT world and see whats going on. For this I have enlisted the help of CRFTD.app whole helped me through the part that would usually have me in tears after reading and failing to understand any written instructions. I have started with a collection of 51 photographs from the Night Swimmers series. These have the traits of being the blue to green water , Male subject in various different spirits from Energized trough Stillness. All of them are emanating positivity.

The Wave goes up as a triptych seascape

I got hang these three this week, with some help of course. A commissioned triptych of ‘The Wave’ Seascape. I really liked the idea of The Wave on this wall because if you could actually see through the wall, you would have the most spectacular view looking out over the pacific coast line, taking in the wide expanse of the beautiful Santa Monica Bay up to Malibu and out to sea. The sunsets would be incredible.

A Quick Install At The Other Art Fair

Install day at The Other At Fair with Hayley speeding things up for me. We got in at 10am and hung these Night Swimmers. The first time I have seen the later part of the series all together on one wall. The recently published ‘Subaqueous’ took the centre space with ‘Blue Swim’ beneath. As you close in you are then beholden to it’s gold, black sister print of ‘Encircle’ hanging over your left shoulder. ‘Heavenly Swim’ gently brings your eyes back to the front, with its vivid, deep greens coming to life on the Hot Press Rag. “I See The Light’ was looking good just beneath with a new aspect ratio, printed at 17”W x 21”H.

To the right and the blues flood in from the bottom with ‘I Amphibian’, ‘The Sky Is The Limit’ and the smaller ‘Down To Earth’.

On the right return wall was ‘Grace’ I wanted people to see her and this crop was to bring you in. She is truly graceful and brings her fresh look of life into any space. I also showed mounted prints of Grace at 16”W x 9”H along with 5. others from the ‘En Route’ series.

‘The Wave’ below is supporting and exhilarating. Wide and wild in a strong white frame. I could have filled the whole booth with this photograph. It looks fantastic when it’s big on the wall.

‘The Sea Beneath’ is the same. We fitted its big white frame on to the floor, completing the movement from the pounding heart beat of Grace through the ocean waves the into calmness of the English Channel on a good day.

I made a frame from some old walnut, 18” x 18” and then printed ‘Twilight Euphoria’ This sat, squared, on the floor together with ‘Flow X’ from the RH.COM series.

We met some fantastic people over the 4 days of The Other Art Fair. A big thank you to everyone who stopped by for some enlightening conversation. Your thoughts and wisdom very much appreciated.

It is so nice as a photographer in the digital age, to get the chance to step back from the computer screen and see the work printed and come to life on a big wall. To be able to share those initial reactions with so many people is a rich asset.

There is a long process in doing the art fair. The choices between showing an exhibition or a fair, or both. Selecting the photographs, the print sizes, the matt cutting the framing the financing, the resizing, the crazy amount of hours that goes into getting these images organized and released for every single format imaginable, online. It’s a lot of work and my thanks again to all who took part, it means a lot.

It would be nice to exhibit again soon. Perhaps for a bit longer. And BIGGER !

Prints Are Here !

The prints have arrived and they are looking just wonderful !

A big thank you to Jason Tlush Studios for putting the usual care and attention into making things look terrific and go so smoothly.
