Seeing in Layers
2023-03-31 17:01:48 UTC
Seeing and shooting with Layers in mind is a fascinating concept. Layers is about using the classic frame of 35mm to its full story board potential. If you look closely at the image above, the context is a busy high street which is layered with: A Woman on Crutches Two…

The Light of Spring
2023-03-27 14:05:11 UTC
The clocks went backwards by one hour over the weekend. This disruption to our sleep pattern has made no difference because the clouds on Sunday morning was a blanket smog of nasty grey. That was yesterday. This morning, I was greeted with with the Light of Spring. Oh glorious spring…

35mm CF | Layers Part 3

The potential for a deeper narrative is always present. It’s all about being open, receptive and responsive. Seeing in Layers has now become a part of my visual tool box of skills. This is a beautiful way to add visual interest. I realised this storytelling technique is something I have…

35mm CF | Layers Part 2
2022-07-31 12:56:05 UTC
From the moment I got off the Bus, I started to see it; multiple subjects and stories. It has always been there - I have always seen it. What’s interesting is I was not aware of this context; Shooting in Layers. My Camera is set to give me good depth…

35mm -CF | Layers
2022-07-31 07:31:41 UTC
Layers. Multiple elements within the Frame. This is my next study - seeing deeply into the visual narrative. The Classic Frame and its complimentary 35mm Lens has opened my eyes, literally. The Frame is wide - enough, to accommodate a complex, chaotic narrative. This means being responsible for what I…

Deep Vision | Layers
2022-06-11 13:25:05 UTC
With such a wide field of view, my scene will take in a lot of information. This creates an epic visual narrative. For me, using the XF16mm means asking a very important question; what is the context? With these three images, the Context is Road Works in my neighbourhood. This…

Deeper Visual Layers

I am very happy about one thing regarding my visual expression. No matter what Lens I have on my Camera, I now know how to use it. There is a big debate regarding Prime Lens Vs Zooms. I will not contribute to this, what I will say is Zoom Lens…

SFS: Seeing Deeply
2021-12-31 18:25:14 UTC
Seeing deeply is a big part of creating a story in a single frame. This moment was created on Westminster Bridge. It was quite chaotic - lots of people on the Bridge. I saw the man kneeling and felt this in itself would be interesting. And then, The man behind…

SFS: Narrative
2021-12-26 20:20:00 UTC
The Single Frame Narrative creates its own context. The Frame work encapsulates the visual conversation. This Frame reveals what is or once was. The environment for Christmas Trees. They are all being cleared away for another year. If you have been following my Journal, you will have known what this…

SFS: A Moment To Pause
2021-12-23 19:55:02 UTC
I was really taken with this moment. It made me stop. Watch. Observe and simply be still. The woman sat in the railing didn’t move. I don’t even remember creating the image. That’s how quickly it happens the instant I feel the potential story. A story in a single frame.…

2021-03-07 02:28:21 UTC
Layers. Multiple stories in the frame. Seeing deeply. Three powerful brands all competing for attention. I saw it. Do you?
