Sorry folks for lack of transmission…took another dive so been recuperating…to be honest I haven’t really found my feet since the beginning of this year and have been mostly housebound but was determined to continue doing this blog as gave me a focus and a purpose and kept me connected to the outside world. And I managed to maintain for the most part..albeit in heavily restricted circumstance. Every day I try to get out of the house and go for a short walk, to stretch, to attempt the microscopic amount of exercise I can currently tolerate and to stop myself going bat shit crazy being stuck indoors 24/7.
So all photographs you have seen this year were taken within 1500 steps of my flat as that has been my total capacity for walking. And yet, as small as my world has shrunk I found I still had a vast array of material for observation, thanks largely to the teeming life present on Portobello Rd. And no matter how shit I felt I always saw something I wanted to try and photograph. And a lot slipped through my net but I still managed to capture some gems along the way. When I am out the other side of this thing my next photo book is going to be called 1500 steps and will show that even in the smallest of spaces there is always still so much to see…
But right now I need to focus on my recovery some more so am going to take an extended break..as my dedicated followers will know I always take off August anyway so have just started my summer hiatus a little early this year…
Take care and hope to see you in the Autumn!
