Below is a series of experiments using a foam head I normally use to test lighting and focus for portrait shots.

Malaga, Window with Posters

Another image from the Malaga Windows series. The shop has been empty for some time and posters are pasted on the window on a reguar basis. When the posters are striped away more posters and blanking paper attached to the inside of the glass can be seen.

Archeological Dig & Construction Site, Malaga, Jan 2011

Here is a series of shots taken from of huge construction site in Malaga. In the centre of the excavation a wooden sail boat has been discovered. The overall effect is like a massive, ancient carcass in the middle of the city. The archeologists think it dates from the turn of the 18th century but this is still to be confirmed.

Ode to Ralph Eugene Meatyard

Below are results of experiments with long exposures and slow film (50 asa). Most shots were taken with a handheld camera and an exposure of 1s or more. Although I have experimented with long exposures before I decided to continue after having seeen examples of Ralph Eugene Meatyard's "no focus" photos as well as long exposure shots from Alexey Titarenko http://www.alexeytitarenko.com/.

Statue with flash, Parque de Malaga

At the weekend I re-shot a statue in the park close to my house with a combination of daylight (early morning shadow) and flash. The Metz flash was mounted on a stand to camera right. The idea is to make a series of figures lit with flash against dark backgrounds.
