This portfolio comprises urban photographs  made  to appear timeless; so that it’s possible to imagine that materially the same image could have been made many years ago. Paris is a favourite location for this type of photograph, since much of the old core of the city remains. Sadly few of these photographs are from the UK, and whilst I have vivid memories from my Newcastle childhood that I’d dearly like to photograph, virtually none of them survived that childhood and I’m left to stare enviously at the work of those few with the foresight to walk those streets. Conversely cities like New York seem to have preserved their heritage somewhat better.
