Making “My Streets”

It all started to make sense as the design layout of this book took shape. All the anxieties about what order the images should go in soon dissipated. There was no need to provide an order. The moments captured during a period of some seven years had their own narrative as single captures. Mixed into a more global pot, they provided a wider narrative which, by themselves, flowed seamlessly, providing a semblance of Gibraltar's unique identity....

Seeing moments

There was a time back in the late 1980s and early 1990s when such a thing as a digital camera was somewhat a figment of people’s imagination. Then came the personal computer with its digital imaging software, the digital cameras and, of course, the debate. Oh God, do I remember the debate... all photography would be lost, people wouldn’t know how to take photos, nothing could replace darkroom work, blah blah....

NOGAF

What makes this series important is not the artist behind it, but the communication itself.The work is designed to speak directly, openly and without elitism. Art, after all, is a language. If it cannot communicate, if it becomes so abstract that nobody can connect with it, then it risks becoming decoration for intellectual circles rather than something alive in the real world....

the story behind my 'art'...

You look at the blank page—white, threatening, scary. It’s that moment when you are about to start.That fear seeps through your body, like a shivering tremble, where for a moment you dread beginnin…

Two weeks without posting on my blog and you want to know my honest opinion?

End-of-season work has taken over, and like most people at this time of year, there’s barely space to think, let alone create.

But here’s what I’ve been thinking about…

So it’s been over two weeks since I last posted on this blog. Yep, it’s end-of-season time and the workload is as heavy as it gets at this time of year. And of course, there is little time to do my…

The silence behind the lens

You know you have a problem when you can no longer see those moments unfolding before you. For some years after I departed the police force, my return to the media saw me pick up a camera and guide my pathway back into the industry. It was a period in which I was labelled a “photographer” — a label I constantly rejected....

Art and War – Unapologetically Anti-War

Sometimes our civilisation reminds us just how self-centred, greedy, and inhumane we can be.

We describe ourselves as civilised, as intelligent beings. Yet common sense tells us, time and again, that an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth leaves everyone blind and broken—while others stand behind them, ready to continue the cycle....

Women with the Closed Door – The Story Behind It

(Listen while you read: Cover for Numb to life album You look around you—check social media, read the latest posts, maybe even watch TV—and all you seem to see are people chasing their fifteen minutes of glory.
