A superbly captured moment by Tatyana on DeviantArt. There is also a rather nice gallery to accompany this shot.

Urban Camouflage - Photography

Urban Camouflage deals with the question how to camouflage oneself and one’s identity in the urban space. Our costumes are inspired by the «ghillie suits», the military camouflage suit. It was an adventure to wear the suit in the stores because of the conflicts with the employees, the reaction of the customers and also to see the pretty well camouflage effect in a real situation.

Sometimes...

if you don't blow your own trumpet then nobody else is going to do it for you.

I thought it was time that I unleashed you on some of my own work. Unfortunately, there has not been very much of it in the past while as I have been quite unwell. However, now I am getting back on my feet again I would like to showcase two of my latest shots.




Wheel from the side.


For Blog 2

From the rear.

This magnificent structure is The Falkirk Wheel. I have always had a bit of an interest in these things as the Forth and Clyde Canal runs almost directly behind my home, but this superb piece of engineering is not only highly effient, both in terms of time and energy, but is s strangely elegant addition to the landscape.

If you would like to see any more of my work you can find it here.
