This was originally intended as blog designed so that Andy Norton, a postgraduate in Creative Digital Media, could discuss his influences whilst working on a comic for his Creative Portfolio Development module on that master’s degree.
Now, the blog is intended to share articles relevant to his interests, as well as his artwork (past and present), as an experience graphic designer, with a background in illustration and animation.
No we are onto last year, back in January, and some of these shots were re-creating, unconsciously, some of the shots I took several years ago. Having some new items out there, like the garden tables, made it a bit more photogenic for the shots in the garden.
These photographs were taken back in February 2009. It was a good layer of snow on that day, and the snow caused a lot of activity and shock at the time, because it was a hectic time for me as I was trying to find work.
Later, at the end of the year, I took some shots of some of the powdered snow that have landed during that morning. It wasn't that photogenic, but it sure was slippy out there.
I had a discussion with someone about the theme of snow, and it reminded of all the times I have taken photographs purely because it was snowing outside. These picture were taken back on the 6th April 2008.
