What Cannot Be Seen

Checking Out

Happy Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day 2011!

I recently took part in Lucy Phillips’ pinhole collaborative project entitled “What Cannot Be Seen“. Lucy sends out matchboxes loaded with a paper negative and invites participants to photograph what cannot be seen.

The above image is my contribution to the project, which i shot while working on my  own photo series with the lovely John Barr Ross.

This is a photo of John looking out across the seafront whilst sitting on the window ledge of a brighton hotel. despite the large window the people down below seem oblivious to being watched as they go about their daily lives ….though if they were only to look up….

Lucy will be exhibiting her project at the De La Warr Pavillion next month. (Hopefully my image will be one of the few she selects for the show)….Good luck Lucy!

Dark Chamber – An Exhibition of Pinhole Photography

Dark Chamber

I would like to invite you all to my upcoming exhibition of Pinhole Photography at Dimbola Lodge on the Isle of Wight. Dark Chamber is a group show which includes selected works from myself, Billy Childish, Wolf Howard and Dave Wise.

Dimbola Lodge was once the home to one of my icons, the great Victorian photographer Julia Margaret Cameron, so i am honoured to be displaying my work there alongside such great company.

The exhibition will run between Friday 1st April until Sunday 26th June, (Gallery opens on Tuesdays to Sundays, 10am – 5pm)

A few more details are listed on the Facebook event.

Please feel free to share this information with anyone else who might be interested.

I hope to see you there!

A bit of a delay in posting this one but i wanted to mention book called The Pinhole Camera by Brian J Krummel which was published a few moths ago. this excellent book is a practical guide to pinhole cameras. There’s also a  section for some of the photographers around the world including a page on yours truly, so check it out!
