One of the most useful promotional tools I've used over the past year - Iโ€™m often asked about โ€˜what kind of photographyโ€™ I do. Whipping your phone out is fine, but I always think a physical copy is nice to hand out, so I had these madeโ€ฆsort of a multi layer business card.

These are mostly non portrait type shot, all in colour, which I shoot rarely.

I've started making these little cuties today - 9x6cm, 30 images, Mini tape bound books; a very limited edition and a rare splash of colour from Japan. ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต

Fun fact - the shadow on the barn is not the shadow of the tree in frame. The shadow is from a tree that's behind to my left. Optical illusions.

Menacing? Yes, youโ€™re rightโ€ฆkind of sinister.

East Coast of Japan, south of Fukushima - the outgoing tide had left a very fine covering of black silt and fine seaweed. A passing vehicle exposed the white sand underneath, leaving a snaking trail away in to the distance.

Oh it's a nightmare, isn't it! One of the books, I thought I had it perfect, but after I'd glued the covers on the glue swelled the pages and ruined it. ๐Ÿ˜ญ
