Up until the last two or three years

when I took a new photo I always printed it up,

in an edition usually, and then moved on.

More recently though I've been stockpiling images,

doing no more than making draft prints

and putting them on my studio

walls for my own personal pleasure without

going any further with them. The photo above

is an example.

One reason for this situation is that

I seem to be photographing more

now than ever before. I'm not sure why but perhaps working

digitally has increased my output. Another

reason is that I now see images in colour as

well as black and white. For a long time

I worked exclusively in the latter.

This photo I made about 18 months ago.

Lately, I've been feeling that it needs printing up, quite

urgently.
