The selection of themes and of the photographs chosen follow my exhibition at the Shaftesbury Arts Centre held in December 2008. However, the format of this book enables me to expand upon the themes to include some additional photographs.
The themes are: Landscape, Sky, City, Monochrome, Panorama, Winter, Water. These themes run consecutively throughout the book and are shown at the top of each page. Where possible I have shown each double page spread with a common theme.
Many of the photographs were taken in Dorset and Wiltshire depict the varied landscape on my doorstep. I have found photographing cities interesting and include some images of London together with monochrome images of Salisbury and of Amsterdam. Panoramic photographs, both of Dorset, Wiltshire and France form the central part of the book which sits well with the themes of winter and of water.
