Righty ho
These were all taken as part of a project that kinda came to me whilst skating with pas. we were doing runs near the big curbs, and pas pointed out how shank the light was and how cool a tree looked, i told him it was the time of year when 'magic hour' was about. Magic hour comes around late august early september and carries on right into winter. Its that time when the sun is really low, you get amazing side lighting but also teh light is actually golden, not white. I started shooting quite a bit in this hour, just where i live, but this project has really become more of an examination of the suberban enviroment. I also seemd to have a thing with a)lawns and b) shadows.
I dont think much when i shoot, tend to follow the camera and my instincts and see what happens. Some of these im quite happy with, some are not so good. Ill put up three a day i think, theres also some skate photos coming soon as well.
I think i also half ended up examining the texture, as well as the light. Surbaban enviroments are usually considered boring, estates ect. I found these quite cool and fun (although i doubt you will). Being creative in a shit hole can be quite difficult
