During the UK wide COVID-19 lockdown I was finding it frustrating that I couldn't really venture out and shoot the sort of things I normally do. So with plenty of time on my hands indoors, I decided to set myself a little challenge, to document my family in as simple a way as possible.
Basically all I used was one main camera - my Sony A7iii and one lens - my Sigma ART 35mm f/1.4. I would shoot only in camera JPEG and use the in camera black and white profile.
In post process, all I did was some simple crop and rotation corrections. Im sure I have one leg bigger than the other - always seem to be wonky!
I really like the set of images and I might make a little book out of them. I think it captures our moods quite well. Happy one moment, and bored and sad the next.
Kinda glad we can venture out a bit more these days; even if we aren't completely out of the woods yet. The freedom feels amazing....!

The lockdown experience, summer 2020: steamed glasses, face coverings, the chance to be out and about (in the pouring rain). The connection to Grant Wood’s American Gothic painting came later.

A lockdown walk on a cloudy Autumn afternoon.
Looking down from School Hill. The Midland Railway line runs across in the background and beyond that is Hollinwell Golf Course (Notts Golf Club).

I had a little rant to my friend tonight about everything. I am glad it's the weekend, but I'm feeling very Groundhog Day about everything.

The lockdown months have been a chance to reconnect with nature. With no planes and not much traffic, everything has been more silent, clean and peaceful. Tonight I witnessed one of the most beautiful sunsets in my life. This picture does not do it justice.
Grantham, Dysart Road at the railway bridge - normally packed with traffic at mid-day.
Unable to travel far I have been documenting my current home town during the 2020 Coronavirus lockdown. The centre of town is near deserted - there are a few people around if you look carefully but most are staying away.
