About this Blog

This blog is part of the ‘zemni images’ family of blogs for Visual Communications courses with Open College of the Arts, UK. The blog was originally designed for a leisure course on landscape photography.

Photography is a key part of my wider Visual Communications practice. At the moment this blog is intended mainly as a repository for my own reference, bringing together material and ideas from other photography courses from older websites. Many of the pages and posts are therefore currently only in note form.

Please bear with me. I hope by end of 2019 the site will be re-designed and updated as a reference resource on different aspects of photography that will be useful also for other people.

3: Landscape as Political Text : Grassy Corner

Spring is a time when many people start to use the river again – seeing the ducks and feeding the swans. Walking after winter. On March 22nd 2015 I photographed all the litter left by this sudden burst of activity – like flowers suddenly in bloom.

I like the idea of a snail also using the space as its own place – it was still there a month later. Hybernating? But the image is not really sharp enough. I need to increase the focus depth.

I have better images of mist through the trees further up the river. But this shows some of the charm of the place.

Grassy Corner is a favourite place for watching the Cambridge University Bumps – a college rowing race that has taken place since 1827. This race was probably the first event to make this rural and otherwise unremarkable spot ‘a place’. Nowadays there are many local rowers and town boat clubs that also row past the bench.
