Lytham 1940s Wartime Weekend

 On the 17th August I attended Lytham's 1940s festival. These photographs are of their WW2 re-enactment battle scene.

Lighthouse

I really enjoyed photographing the Mull of Galloway lighthouse, on the edge of the cliffs in West Scotland.

Handful of seashells

Feeling like a giant with a handful of these tiny sea shells on a beach in West Scotland.

Where the sea meets the sky

Endless blue, Bray Harbour, Ireland.

Holidays

Smoke from gorse fire on Bray head, Ireland.

Fire damage on the cliff walk to Greystones. Photograph taken several days after the fire

Butterflies and Moths

Prints from my recent work looking at moth and butterfly collections in Victorian Britain. 3D butterflies I handmade using my own photographs I took at the entomology departments archives at Manchester's Natural History museum. At the recent exhibition in May, I scattered these butterflies around my prints.

Handmade Concertina Book

Miniature, handmade, double sided concertina hardback book that I created for a recent project. The book contains photographs I've taken on an old Olympus trip 35 camera and, within tiny paper pockets, scans of  documents belonging to my Grandfather in the 1940s, that can be opened and folded out.
