I love the lack of colour and atmosphere throughout… Acrobats and Circus performers on location, the perfect shoot…yes!

and I really love the images of Will in the mirror…

From digging around on the internet it was directed by Diamond Dogs and shot by Will Bex. Will have to have a look for some more of their work!

And here is the link to the video! x

to see my recent work!

Something else I’d really like to explore is the lack of colour in an image, rather than just black and white. Of course the stonework of York Cathedral is perfect for this.I totally got carried away with the amount of patterns and textures in the building- something I always loved. When I got my job at Venture my tutor was mortified, she thought I would lose the subtlety of my work… she was right to worry of course… I learned a a lot & I never really lost it but I do hope to find it properly again.

I wasn’t sure how the images of the candles would come out- I really hate using flash unless I’m in the studio and the Minister was very dark! Basically I held my breath and tried to stay as still as I could! I’ve tried to make an image which is dark and a bit gothic,without being black and white. The warm and cold colours mixed together I am really pleased with. It needs text…will have to buy a new copy of Dracula!

York Cathedral

It’s that holiday time of year again and we headed off to the log cabin in York again, I got some really great shots of the Minister and York itself. The patterns and the brickwork were so beautiful and it was a really nice day. I took a silly amount of pictures, with the intention of making a textural collage from them….more coming  up on Flickr!
