"Walk the Line Messiah"

Here I have another of my photos from my journeys. This is from Prague city centre, down a little back alley. The sun was finally shining when I found this odd little sculpture hanging from a roof top. I couldn't resist!

In editing I tweaked the temperature and saturation to give this image a more dramtic finish. I also added a slight zoom effect to draw the viewer's eye to the hanging subject. I love the framing of this picture, the never ending houses and chimmeny top horizon really pull the viewer in, and make the image even more peculiar.

"What we are Chasing is Fragile"

This picture means a lot to me, both visually and symbolically. I took it in Krakow, Poland, in the town square. A magician was entertaining young children with huge bubbles. It is a candid shot, which I cropped in order to focus the composition on the child. In editing, I also played with the exposure, temperature and added vignette and sepia effects to create the rich finished product.

I love the innocence of the child and the beautiful colours in the bubble itself. The title of this photograph came very naturally to me, as at the point of taking the picture, I was tempted by a relationship which simply couldn't work, and I felt the naivety of a child, and the perfect unstainability of the bubble summed this up.

"Wonder Locks"

I chose to take this photograph of this amazing sculpture from a very low angle, to give an all powerful impression. I really think the angle adds to the picture, as it brings out all the beautiful nooks and crannies of the art work.

The gallery lighting, and use of a low ISO also created gorgeous shadows which fall over the different shapes in such a way to make the sculpture look magnificent and mighty.

From this angle, and with the dark lightings and golden tones, the sculpture reminds me of the back of a mysterious door in movies such as Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter.

"My Tin Can Wrestler"

This is another of my pictures from Berlin. The image shows a busy market scene oppositte Brandeburg Gate. I love the urban horizon, with the central crane and sky scraper. I chose to play with saturation, temperature and contrast to intensify the skyline and tones.

I also think the sea of silhouetted people really suggests how technology is overtaking humanisation.

"Drip Drip Drop Little April Showers"

This is a photograph from a recent photography trip to Poland, where we visited Auschwitz. The atmosphere cannot be described through words. Haunting just doesn't seem to cut it.

I chose to use a small depth of field in order to focus on the rain drop on the barbed wire, and in editing decided to saturate the image. I have left a little colour around the drop, you can see slight hints of greens and blues. Even the barbed wire cries at Auschwitz.
