Reflections on still water, Turf Locks, Exeter Canal, Devon, England.

Photography has been described as painting with light, and that is pretty much how I see it. No more so than when capturing moody skies reflected on still water. This is the Exeter Canal basin by Turf Lock, where yachts moor having just entered the canal from the estuary, or whilst waiting to leave. I took this photograph take one afternoon back in 2008. The water was still, but dark clouds were gathering ominously. I positioned myself on the far bank, as low and near the water's edge as possible to the this shot. Sometimes, if you are lucky and patient, everything aligns just right.

The Image

This is a photograph captured on film. The photograph was captured using a Nikon F4 camera, (one of Nikon's finest pieces of engineering in my opinion) and 20mm Nikon lens. Being a film image, it shows grain in the image rather than sharp pixels. I shot this image on Fuji Velvia 100. Velvia has long been my favourite film for landscape photography due to its rich colours and fine detail.


The print comes signed, with a small signature and date (year photograph taken) in the bottom RH corner.

Print Sizes

The print is available in 3 sizes: 30 x 18.5cm; 45 x 28 cm and 60 x 37cm. This is the edge to edge size of the image (rounded to the nearest half centimeter). Other sizes can me produced, please email me.


Open Edition Fine Art Print

Open edition means that there is no fixed limit to the number of prints I will produce. This should not be confused with high volume, mass produced prints that one can buy on the high street or through large online companies. Here, each print is individually produced, generally using far superior materials and printing process.


The Paper

The prints are produced on Canson Infinity Baryta 310gsm paper or Iford Gallerie Gold Fibre Silk Baryta 310gsm paper (other papers are available). Baryta papers have revolutionised modern digital-age printing by restoring the level of detail, deep blacks, vivid whites and wide colour range previously only available using traditional darkroom photographic paper. I specifically chose this paper because of its exceptional ability to faithfully replicate colour and vividness, its great longevity and its barium sulphate coating. This aids capture of intricate details and definition in the print, has excellent archival qualities and helps in replicating the look of traditional darkroom prints.
