On Beauty

"There is no excellent beauty that hath not some strangeness in proportion." Francis Bacon

On: In No Great Hurry: 13 Lessons in Life with Saul Leiter. BBC

“It is very refreshing to see and listen to a photographer who creates beautiful images because they are there to be taken.  He does not justify his photography with yards of critical (read: bullshit) analysis.  He shoots from the hip very gently.  Do yourself a favour and enjoy 60 minutes of a photographer’s life.”Brian Rybolt Phg

Quote from David Hockney in Time Out 19-25.01.12

"There's a dark side to everything, of course, but in the end, looking at the world is a positive act and I think the act of looking is very beautiful and therefore the world is beautiful if you look at it"

" You could argue that there is beauty in violence even. These are the problems of depiction and they're permanent."

River bank project, Windsor

A mysterious world lies under the weeping willows' hanging drapes that line the River Thames. Forming a boundaryline between land and water, they dip their tips into the deep dark pools, a place unknown by humans

I could smell and almost taste the soap, shiney, waxey, slowly melting under the lights. I wanted to know what sound they would make falling over
