I decided to move away from my confort zone and take photographs of people along the Thames south side, although there were crowds, I could not see them, my eye went for what I can see.

My fascination for decay and stability:two contradictory forces at play, as well as dark and light...

Some sweet Kentish apples on a bed of dead leaves...

As part of reducing my colour output and exploring high contrast dark images, here a sample from the dry lands near Nijar, Almeria

A welcome shade in a hot July, Kent...

An image that has been with me for a while... It came to fruition in a few hours, which surprised me.

Continuing with my Still Life project....

The question of Choice, freedom, natural inclination, pre-emptied behaviour, predisposition, The Light or The Dark, as in the image it is not a path that one can leave, but a fixed track, once chosen it will take us to its destination...

Inevitably it is necessary to give a historical perspective of this yearly festival that takes place in the city of La Paz, Bolivia in the first week of June. The celebration transforms and stimulates the social life of La Paz every year, emanating from a particular way of understanding and living Andean Catholicism. The Parade begins with a procession through the western part of the city. This procession is central to the event, involving 40,000 devotees who dance and sing in an offering to the patron saint. The dance has a sacred significance for the sixty-nine fraternities involved, which are greeted in the streets in a euphoric atmosphere where the music of 7,000 musicians resonates. It is so owe inspiring that it is rightfully a UNESCO Wold Heritage event (Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity). The image venerated with dance and music is believed to have arrived in the city at the founding of the convent of the Mothers of the Sacred Conception on the 8th of December 1663.
