This is a series of projects I started after hearing several speakers talking about people taking a quick photo of a scene and then just moving on to the next big view, without taking the time to enjoy the smaller details, wildlife, colours and abstracts within that bigger picture. If anything I tend to be the opposite way round, enjoying the wildlife and details of nature, and taking fewer big landscapes, but it made me think of a project idea, so in these photos I’ve taken a landscape view, and then shown the details within my bigger scene – Scenes within a scene.

This then evolved into a couple of sub-projects: Within a stone’s throw – photos made within a few steps (a stone’s throw) of my landscape view, and Taking a closer look – focussing in on the macro and natural abstract details that can be found within a scene or object.
