My first photographic book 'Around the World via Gainsborough' is nearly ready. The 118 page self published book will be launched at Marshall's Yard in Gainsborough on September 24th 2008. The book contains 109 pictures from my last 18-months work, including pictures from trips to Iceland, Beijing, Madrid, Valencia and Hong Kong. The book will also contain a lot of pictures from my home town of Gainsborough. In the pictures I wanted to convey how the average street differs from one country to the next, with strong emphasis on shapes, colour, texture, and the often seen humour of everyday life - hopefully something very different to the work you have viewed before. You can pre-order the book now through my website and will be posted to you on September 24th. ...more
