Orange Wall Series No.1
Orange Wall Series No.2
Orange Wall Series No.3
This is a series of photographs based against the back drop of an orange wall in Hammersmith. The series is partly influenced by the painter Francis Bacon, with his painting triptychs of figures against a bright colour and another painter, Edward Hopper's figures - motionless in the sun. My motionlessness is created here by a fast shutter speed on a camera. Each photograph is 31.5 cms wide, by 47.5 cms high. The photographs are on display in Photography Gallery 'Fine Art 2', and are ready for exhibition, sale and reproduction.

For my own personal work, I will keep my photo shoots out in the open for days when there is high contrast. I prefer dark shadows and bright highlights.
