Bodmin Moor

Over the past few months i have been photographing on a circular route of Bodmin Moor. This land is constantly changing due to human activity, wildlife movement and natural forces. After looking at the work of Fay Godwin and Bill Brandt, who both photographed the British Landscape, i decided i wanted to capture the natural beauty of this land using black and white medium format film. This takes my images out of the reality; dispensing with the colour ranges of the real experience concentrates on the tones and shapes withing the image. These images are examples of abstract forms being created by weather conditions, such damage can be done to the landscape and yet over time it can be changed into something beautiful. In the next post will be broader images of the different forms surrounding the moors, they also show how weather has changed the hard rugged rocks into smooth sculptures standing strong and proud over the ever changing land.
