Deutsche Börse Photography Prize
With its move to a much needed new larger space in the new Photographers Gallery, the Deutsche Börse Photography Prize should begin to gain the reputation it deserves. This years prize has four very different photographers on show across the two gallery spaces.

Visual Acoustics

Julius Shulman, renowned Architectural photographer most famous for his depiction of Modernism across California, died in July of this year. Having just moved to the Golden State, it seemed only fitting that I attended a screening of Eric Brickers documentary ‘Visual Acoustics’ to learn a little more about a man so acclaimed and respected, particularly in this part of the world.

Dreaming Big

We all have dreams about what we’d like to be when we grow up but, for the vast majority, it’s rare that those dreams ever come to accurate fruition.

Sorry, no pictures

Originally this post was about Radical Nature, an exhibition running at the Barbican art gallery in London (19 June —18 October 2009). I hoped to get some nice close-ups of Henrik Håkansson’s horizontal section of rainforest, or some maybe some above shots from of Tomas Saraceno’s floating bubble structures. More

Other People's Photographs

For the last few months I have been researching the personal photographic archives of others for a project dealing with seriality in photography (both book and web form). As part of my research I discovered a recent editorial piece by Joachim Schmid, ‘Other people’s photographs’, very similar to my concept which forces me to re-think my project. More

Is a photo worth a thousand words?

We live in an age where we are able to view an almost endless amount of content (TV shows, films, images and more importantly user-generated content) whenever we choose through the internet. On demand is a phrase that is constantly being used in the media, and this week Channel 4 announced they were adding their back catalogue of over 10,000 titles to 4OD. More
