Grande Arche de la Defense, Paris, France Martine Franck, 1989

A striking black-and-white architectural photograph shows a space viewed from above, where bold graphic floor markings resembling a giant measuring dial intersect with sharp geometric shadows. A staircase cuts diagonally across the scene, with one person crouched near equipment and cables while another walks alone across the numbered surface, their elongated shadow emphasizing the strong directional light.

Wide interior view of a derelict explosives factory being reclaimed by nature. The large industrial hall features a sawtooth roof with skylights that allow sunlight to fall on a floor completely carpeted in thick green moss, ferns, and small shrubs. Reinforced concrete pillars and beams frame the space, while the weathered walls show heavy staining and moisture. Through the empty window frames and doorways, dense exterior vegetation is visible.

Apologies if you've seen this before. One from my archive, shot back in 2012, that I just have a nice feeling from every time I bump into it in my hard drive. Made with model & friend, Shinyong. On a day of lovely light in Tokyo. Apart from editing out a few dust spots, straight out the camera.

A head and shoulders, black and white portrait of Korean-Japanese model, Shinyong. She's facing to the right of the frame. Wearing a black suit jacket, she has a very sculpted bob style haircut. She's looking down towards the bottom right corner of the photo. The large semi-circle of light is the natural flare pattern of light that comes into this old Nikon lens when you shoot close to the sun. The bokeh in the background is from light coming through the trees of the park we were in.

I've always loved photographing flowers - these portraits are from a series I made using the wet plate collodion process.

a wet plate collodion portrait of two white tulips that are slightly open.

another portrait of tulips - these white tulips are in a vase that is blurred due to the camera (using the shift and tilt of the bellows) - the portrait is black and white with sepia overtones due to using the Victorian photographic process, wet plate collodion.

Another wet plate portrait of three white tulips - the tulips are placed diagonally across the plate - the stems starts from the left hand bottom corner and the flowers sweep upwards to the centre of the frame.

Photograph of a scene in the city at night, with several quite high buildings at the horizon. All over the photo are several bokeh lights, some of them in a bright red. The overall toning of the photo is blue, and the building in focus also has some pink / magenta tones.

Photograph of the silhouette of a mountain range with the dark and cloudy sky above it. The photo is very dark, and only the outlines of the mountains are illuminated.

Capture of the blue hour during sunrise. There is a small piece of mountain range in the photo, and two little birds flying into the dusty landscape.

"What It Means To Be A Woman" Kodak Gold 200 Kodak No.2 Folding Cartridge Hawk-Eye Forest Park Cemetery October 19, 2024

A film scan of a fall forest scene, with a quarter-angle grave plot monument taking up a majority of the frame. The monument depicts a female figured angel, wings outstretched against a rough-hewn cross, the angel disfigured and rendered headless by vandals long-past, a column of sunlight breaking through the treecover to illuminate the chest and vacant shoulders. There's a triangular light leak on the bottom right of the frame, almost level with the concrete plinth the monument sits upon, a hallmark of the camera it was shot on, and a thorn in my side.
