Carrion
Taken on Glen Coe in the Scottish Highlands. I’m not sure what it was that bit the dust on the moorland, but it had feathers, and had been picked clean.
This one was processed using the dodge and burn tools in Photoshop - lots of really heavy dodging and burning.

Self Portrait Number 1
This image is a bit of a cliche and I'm slightly embarassed by it, but I love the mono tones, and the sky was just beautiful that day.

Gas Tower - Hackney, London
I love these gas towers. Not sure why. I've gone past this one every day on the train for about three years and always wanted to photograph it. Then one day all this graffiti popped up on the side of it, and then I REALLY wanted to photograph it :) Sometimes graffiti looks so right.
Well I found it a little while back - just round the corner from where I live. I love it.

Hugo
This is Hugo - hes a friend of a friend, who owns a little night spot in Hackney thats not really a night spot but actually where he lives! He puts on parties and exhibitions from time to time to help pay the rent.
He was a great guy. I had hoped to put a night on with him, but it all came to nothing in the end, as these things often do.
His place was amazing. You can only see a small portion of it here, but behind the camera is a large open space, the walls adorned similarly to the walls you can see in this image. Speakers, wires, cables
all manner of brick-a-brack. There was also a stage where bands could perform.
Being there reminded me of my favourite Jeff Wall image:

Glen Coe, Scotland - April 12, 2008
This stubby little mountain was the first I photographed on a week long trip to the Scottish Highlands last April. There's something about him (it seems like a he) that's ever so cheeky, though I can't figure out what it is.
