Little Bird
I should know what type of bird this is, but I don’t… any suggestions? What did I learn from this image? That I should put more effort into working out exactly what I’m taking photographs of…

The Window, the Chair, and the Curtain
I wouldn’t say I particularly have a distinctive and consistent photography style – but I do like black and white images, playing with the texture, shape, and the way light interacts with subjects fascinates me. What did this image teach me? Two things really – firstly, there are often interesting compositions to be found in…

Colour Reims Cathedral
I was fortunate enough to visit Reims a few years ago, where I managed to capture the amazing light show that they project onto the side of the Cathedral. An ever changing light show. What did these images teach me? That Reims cathedral is an amazing place, and that it’s entirely possible to shoot hundreds…

The Grey Lady
One of many unusual pieces of architecture that you can find whilst wandering around the streets of London. I wish I could tell you where I was when I took this – but unfortunately I didn’t keep a note of it. If anyone knows, please add a comment as I’d like to revisit this location.…

The Centre of the Eye
The London Eye, one of the most famous “big wheels” in the world, perhaps? What did this image teach me? It’s all about the lines – lines, lines, lines. This image taught me that there’s something intrinsically interesting about lines converging on one another, and that this is something I need to look out for…

Old Rope
The coil of the white rope against a black background just caught my eye. This was taken at one of the many open-to-tourists-but-no-longer-functioning mines in Cornwall. What did this image teach me? That interesting compositions are everywhere – if you have both your eye and your mind open to them.

Blue & Bell
This is the bell tower on the local Victorian era church. What did these images teach me? That sunlight and shadows on stone can make for an interesting texture, and that sometimes that’s all you need (plus a quaint bell tower, in this case).

The Old Yellow House
I found this ruin in the local area, and whilst the bricks may have been more orange in the original, I liked the way they stood out in yellow. What did this image teach me? To be bold in my colour choices, and to try and find something interesting in even the most mundane of…
