Sheep in snow February 2010. I think the bw conversion gives it an old gritty feel and makes it look as cold as it was!
This type of photo reminds me of James Ravilious's photos.
He was a British photographer who died not so long ago. He spent years photographing the people and work of the village he lived in.
Here is a link to a documentary which I saw on the bbc someone has posted it on You Tube.

Thanks for looking.
This image was huge for me and was planned for weeks. i was inspired at the time by Lewis Hine and James Ravilious. Although the two artists have very different styles i had in my own way designed a half documentary image, half exaggerated. I used photoshop to redirect the light towards my naked model who is there to represent depressed males, naked in order to seem vulnerable.

The Midland Hotel is a Streamline Moderne building in Morecambe, Lancashire, England. It was built by the London, Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS), in 1933, to the designs of architect Oliver Hill, with sculpture by Eric Gill, and murals by Eric Ravilious (subsequently destroyed). It is a Grade II* listed building. The hotel has been restored by Urban Splash with architects Union North, Northwest Regional Development Agency and Lancaster City Council. It is operated by The Inn Collection Group, and has 44 art-deco bedrooms.
This was my first time at this great event which has been running for 11 years, however this year's event(2025) will not be run due to pressure to raise the funds needed to match rising costs. The free and not-for-profit annual event, which was co-created by fashion designer Wayne Hemingway, who hails from Morecambe, in conjunction with Deco Publique has reportedly attracted more than 40,000 visitors to the Lancashire seaside resort each year, however the organisers hope this is not the end of the festival forever and that the right levels of resources and funding can be secured in the future. © Peter Steel 2024.

James Ravilious consisted of black and white rural photography and landscape photography. So I took on hie idea and took this and used my photoshop skills.
The dish is a relic from the early 20thC - intended to pick up (hear) approaching aircraft. One of many - though their benefit was limited and soon overtaken by radar.
The dish appears in an Eric Ravilious watercolour.

705 Tirzah Garwood
Connections with Brighton and Hove : Tirzah Garwood was a notable artist and the wife of war artist Eric Ravilious from 1930 until his death in 1942. Born in 1908 to a military family, she was educated at West Hill School in Eastbourne. She swiftly showed promise as an artist and wood engraver. She later studied at the Central School of Art. She gained many commissions including one from the BBC to refashion its coat of arms. Garwood married Eric Ravilious in Kensington in July 1930 and he was already well known by then. They both loved the Sussex countryside which inspired much of their work. They had three children. Garwood suffered from breast cancer and during her recovery wrote an autobiography. Ravilious became a war artist and his plane went missing off Iceland in 1942. His body was never recovered. Garwood spent her later years in Essex, marrying again and resuming her career as an artist. But the cancer returned and she died in 1951. A memorial exhibition was held at the Towner Gallery in Eastbourne in 1952. Two of her paintings are in the Towner Gallery, which also has the largest collection of her husband’s work.
Locally born artist, Eric Ravilious lived at 48 Upper Mall in the 1930s- the blue plaque is round the corner in Weltje Road.
