About the Book
The town of Hawes is surrounded by hills and nestles along side the banks of the shadowy River Ure.
Many footpaths and areas of open access allow one to explore and see a rich assortment of subject matter.
I have been visiting this town over the last 10 years. I take my Hasselblad Xpan which is unique in its ‘letterbox’ panoramic format. People are taken aback when I cannot show them images on the back of my camera. It is surprising, and a little sad, how quickly analogue photography is falling into memory.
For me there is an exhilaration seeing the images revealed for the first time as the fixer drips off the wet black and white negatives. Yet the colour film stock I use has its own intrigue creating unexpected casts. I do not eliminate these unbalances in postproduction, preferring to leave them to serendipity
