Spider Awards

I’ve just discovered that this photo was awarded Nominee status at this years Black and White Spider Awards – that’s the first time I’ve had success with the Spider Awards, although I have managed to get 3 other photographs nominated in their sister awards – The Photography Masters Cup.

Binary People

Digital camera technology allows us to see incredible levels of detail in the images that we make. However the microprocessor is a binary device that only sees two state data – it’s just 0 or 1, true or false, black or white. Binary People is an ongoing personal project that consists of a set of photographic portraits in profile, using only black or white, but still revealing the unique features of the individuals.

Here are some images from this project – you can see more on the main web site.

So what’s this all about then?

Well hopefully this will end up as a lot of interesting, inspiring and occasionally humorous collection of posts, pictures and links. There will be some stuff about what I am up to as well as things that I have seen or been inspired by, and occasionally some things that have actually made me laugh out loud.

I hope you’ll enjoy it.
