5 days on the Tuscan hills...

I have published a book, back in 1975: "Imágenes Paceñas, lugares y personas". Here you can see the contrast of yesterday and today, 1975 and 2023

5 days near Bodiam Castle, East Sussex gave me the opportunity to witness the English countryside including that charming castle.

I am beginning a series of photographs taken in La Paz, Bolivia and countryside. These 5 views were taken from my bedroom window, looking over Achumani. October-November 2023

Two 15 mile walks on the highlands of La Paz, Bolivia. This first to view the range in its majestic presence and the second to walk its bofedales (marshlands) to access the pass on the right. The second trip was most challenging with temperatures well below freezing with the fog and clouds turning to ice on the bowlders we walked on.

I have collected some of my previous works that can possibly fit within the parameters of Pictorialism.

A visit to Pashley Manor house and gardens: a beautiful setting for some very creative statues.

Not long ago when visiting the country of my birth I decided to visit the lands where my grandparents' properties were located: Cairoma and Araca, south of the city of La Paz. The stories I heard as a child of long journeys my mother as small children, her brothers and sisters undertook, travelling on baskets either side of mules through mountains, fertile valleys, high altitude planes and multi coloured lakes, on narrow paths, through wind swept canyons so windy that often the pack mules would be pushed to the precipice below. These childhood images have stayed with me and I have travelled in my imaginations with the images in this collection. The monochrome photograph shows my father to the left with riding boots next to his father, wearing a hat third from the left; my uncle Alberto, third from the right and his wife the left of my grandfather Molina. This seems to be a marriage of two young locals.

Part 2 of my travels in La Paz, Bolivia. I was on a boat on my way to Moon and Sun Islands (sacred in the mythology of the Incas), there were about 30 people in all and no one seemed to notice this tree growing in a promontory of rock in the middle of the lake...

This collection is part of a portrait of Greenwich Park through the seasons: These photographs were taken during the height of summer, August 2024
