Feel a sense of purity
Ignore technology, modern world, stuff, and focus on whats important in life. Your inner self, purity, creation, beauty, and simple things of life.

I feel, overall, it’s simplicity I enjoy most in images. A few years ago I would probably have said light, what we call great light in fact. However, as much of the works I admire from others doesn’t always have that magical light, which no doubt lifts the spirits, it comes back to the simple composition. This, I find myself constantly seeking that simplicity myself.
A continuation of my images from Japan back in March this year.
These are the well photographed seaweed farms that cover a great many of the shorelines around Japan.
The expanse of the seaweed farms is quite mesmerising as is the simplicity of them for their aquaculture purposes.
For me the title of this image is two fold, in that I see the nets as an "instrument" for their great economic value and this particular composition reminds of a stringed instrument itself. Hence the title, "Keiki" is instrument in Japanese (according to Google any way, I'm happy to be corrected).

This month I've been given the opportunity to go up to the roof of Fort Dunlop as many times as I like as part of their 100th birthday celebrations. I went up expecting some lovely views back across Birmingham, but found instead that most of those views were blocked by pylons, so I had to get creative.
I made it up a little late in the day, but there was some lovely sunset light emanating from the clear sky, and the planes taking off from BHX would occasionally bank, cutting across the circular structure in the middle.
The processing is somewhat inspired by the likes of Neil Burnell, whose clean monochrome images really resonate in me. I had to work out how to get the best out of this, but it's really fun to do something a little different.
The church pictured above is the kind of church one often sees as one drives through rural Maine. I do not know what its denomination is, but I doubt it is Congregationalist which has a somewhat more elaborate architectural style. Now Congregationalism is the most common denomination not only in Maine but in New England: Harvard, Yale, Bowdoin College in Maine, and a number of other institutions of higher learning in New England were founded by Congregationalist ministers. To me the church pictured above represents the simple life of so many people there, where the church is not only a place of worship but also the center of one's social life. The purity of the white, the unpretentious style, and the closeness to nature all suggest to me the values of the people who live in the state whose motto is "Life As It Should Be."
As a musical accompaniment I have chosen the well known Shaker hymn "Simple Gifts" The Shakers settled mainly in New York State, but there were also many communities throughout New England, including Maine.
