I have begun looking at how I can start forming a project around the work I currently have even if these don’t make it to an end result they work great as footnotes

Sharing "Dumnonia" a short film as a response to the landscape of Dartmoor.

This accompanies the wider body of photographic work of the same name.

Been investigating a small stretch of coast in Kent.

Lost pets, The Ministry of Defence and the constant hum of electricity.

Here's the beautiful Ebony 4x5 I'm shooting on.

Some recent colour pictures I made walking the lanes in Kent. Would like to try printing these, probably on a heavyweight paper to keep the richness in the shadows.

And I once thought the Tudor period boring and having the appeal of cardboard in a tarmac puddle.

Thank you for changing my mind.

#wolfhall is one of the best series I've had the pleasure of watching, next to the first season of The Terror which is also worth a watch.

Outstanding soundtrack too.

Well this is the best book I've ever had the pleasure of reading.

Next body of photographic work in Stornoway?..

Thank you for constantly inspiring me to walk, listen, feel and explore Mr. Macfarlane.

This one is from a late autumn walk a year or so ago.

Unfortunately most of the trees in the surrounding area had to be felled due to disease known as phytophthora ramorum, but in doing so, the opportunity was presented to improve the structural and species diversity of the area. #everycloud

This would be great and I would love to, but I currently live in East Sussex, and as it stands being a student most of my Great British Pennies already go on commuting. I'm pretty spent for the 2024 but I would like to do something on the Moore in the new year - any recommendations?

Over the past few years I’ve slowly been making work in what I call my home county, Northamptonshire. There is so much hidden beauty which I am still yet to discover, this long body of work is all about this self discovery, finding what’s just found the corner.
