Article and photographs published in the Puglia Blog
It has been a big day for getting things published. I was asked to write an article for the Puglia Blog and this I did. It was published today along with four of my photographs. The article is below…
Photo published in Big Issue of the North
November 29, 2011
My photograph of a lamb peering around a Henry Moore sculpture has been published in Big Issue of the North. Sadly they managed to both use the wrong caption. I had provided two photographs with the other one being a broad landscape of Stoodley Pike in the Calder Valley – nothing like a lamb?? Also […]
I am an Ironman – second draft Artist’s Statement
November 28, 2011
I will keep reviewing my Artist’s Statement for this work as I assimilate information from my research. I have the sense that the original draft did not accurately reflect the documentary nature of the work. Ironman has a tangible visible form represented by the physical shape, clothing, hairstyles, tattoos etc of the athletes. My aim […]

Inspiration
November 24, 2011
I came across a website which set out advice from Magnum photographers for young photographers. see http://erickimphotography.com/blog/2011/09/35-magnum-photographers-give-their-advice-to-aspiring-photographers/ I was particularly struck by David Alan Harvey’s thoughts. He is so strong on the overriding need to have something to say with your photography. This was the central point I gained from my workshop with him in […]
My Current thinking on Advanced Studies and the photography of Vanessa Winship
November 23, 2011
At the same time as pursuing the Understanding Visual Culture course, making some photographic trips and learning to use my large format Ebony camera, I have still been researching and thinking about my future Advanced studies. Indeed the more I have thought about this, the more I have become convinced that I want to focus […]
Trip to Puglia
November 6, 2011
Just completed a trip to Puglia region in the south of Italy. The trip was organised by Light and Land with Charlie Waite and Peter Hendrie as the workshop leaders. I had a great time. My aim was to complete some landscape work and to capture a series of portraits of local people. I think […]
