Patterns in the Stone
There's a problem with photographing the really iconic places of the world: how to convey the essence and atmosphere of a place through the barrier of the familiar postcard images to which we're all pretty much innured. This is one such – the mediaeval island fortress abbey of Mont St Michel in Normandy. This is a truly magical place, where the patterns of nature and those of man contrast, reflect and complement each other as the light changes through the day and through the seasons. And this is what I've tried to capture in this gallery: the patterns, light, detail and the contrasts that make the atmosphere and presence of the place.
These images are just a small selection of those available: all are available as high-quality, hand-mounted giclée prints, framed as required, in colour or monochrome at any of a number of sizes and combinations. As the online store isn't ready yet, please for more details.
