AI image synthesis is inherently wasteful. As we all know but often ignore, anything called AI today consumes enormous energy resources and computing power. Also, it relies on the mass exploitation of human labor on a planetary scale. But there’s more to it … 1/6

Midjourney-generated image, prompt was: a family enjoying a barbecue, upside down --v 6.0

Constantly inspired by the work of German photographer Albert Renger-Patzsch... he's definitely not as well known as he should be. Such an wonderful eye for composition, and amazing to think these industrial studies were made in the 1920s...

Dramatic b&w photographs of massive industrial structures.

A businessman (salaryman) stands on an empty platform waiting for the last train home, in Tokyo Japan. The image is vertical with a cold blue sterile feeling to it. Above him and in the distance are large modern buildings, one sign can be seen briefly - YODOBASHI - one of the worlds largest electronic stores. He holds a briefcase and is lit up by halogen lights overhead. Overhead wires and buildings tower over him, he makes up a tenth of the image in scale. At first glance it may look like an illustration due to the colour treatment.Photography by Liam Wong of Tokyo at night.

A man cycles through Tokyo in the rain. The sky is blue and cut up by silhouettes of telephone poles and wires.

I've built up a large collection of images on my daily walks from my house, all filed in a folder called 'Close to Home'. At some point I may do something with the work, but most importantly I find the process of regularly revisiting & photographing familiar places meditative & creatively rewarding.
