THIS ENGLAND – TOM STODDART
May 7th, 2008 adminÂ
Well it looks like I’m in good company. One of my early influences and fellow British photographer, Tom Stoddart, is working on a series calledThis England which, in his own words, is “a photographic journey, to create images which show the full diversity of life here – the energy, the humour and the variety of faces and places that combine to make England what it is today. The images will be a mix of documentary-style photographs and simple portraits. They will be used in different ways: including a high quality book, a travelling exhibition, in magazines and on the worldwide web. ‘This England’ will be enlightening and informative for those who see the pictures – and I hope it will also give pleasure to the people who are kind enough to allow me to photograph them.”
I wish Tom well and look forward to passing him on the road this summer.
