Wanting to unpick art inspirations

(An outtake from Stretch)

I want to start using variety in my my blog so that I can share my inspirations behind my photography, and hopefully engage some discussion with my blog readers (e.g they can suggest further works connected with the images I upload.) These could include postcard images, images from books, websites and even adverts. However, would I be violating their copyright in uploading digital images of artworks from these sources? Can anyone help me on this one?

A bit more grit

MONO.jpg

…for those who liked my last ‘gritty’ mono image. Here is another rather gritty one that reminds me somewhat of World War two footage reels. I don’t often show my work in mono but I always experiment with different saturations when playing around with an image, so it is nice to show a few on this blog. I may also toy with the idea of showing more of my ‘process’ on this blog, following someone’s suggestion. I hope it will make interesting viewing/reading.

Me the obscure

I think I may take a little break from uploading onto Flickr. A few days. I feel a bit down.

Have a good weekend

Summer shoes

SUMMER_SHOES.jpg

So bitterly cold these January days, makes one surprised to consider how little clothing is needed in the summer months. Even a fur-collared coat isn’t enough! See my latest Flickr post for my fantasy depiction of a cold night, taken outside Brighton’s Royal Pavilion.

The sunny image above, the colours of which are quite contrapuntal to the UK’s current icy breezes, is what you can call an outtake from my cloning days last summer - from The country path.

Thanks for the continuing good wishes and kind comments for my website and its prospects.

That looking glass again

…from Through the Looking Glass , but not such a bad outtake.
Thanks for all your comments on my site so far, it is very encouraging. I do really expect to update my blog often, because I have so many peripheral images to share, outside of my regular uploads on Flickr.
