These photographs are made quickly with compact cameras, with no tripods and no filters. Partly this reflects the likelihood that overtly serious photography would not be allowed. But it results also from a certain amount of curiosity on my part about whether, after a decade or more of mostly very deliberate photography, anything has become ingrained to the point that I no longer need to consciously think so hard about what I’m doing. I don’t take these photographs with the intention that they are closely scrutinised as individual images. When I include them in a presentation I change the image maybe once every five seconds to try and create a flavour of the collection in total through a series of first impressions. I don’t agonise over making them and I don’t expect anyone else to agonise over viewing them.
