The photograph is of a man stood in a forest of tall pine trees. He has silver short hair, pale skin and is dressed all in black; jeans, jumper, boots and a long sleeved jacket.
He is positioned in the bottom left section of the image and appears to be leaning backwards with an unnatural posture with his arms outstretched.
His back seem to be exploding into shards of small black fragments as black crows emerge and fly away into the forest scene as though the man was dissolving and becoming part of nature and the landscape.

His facial expression is calm and without pain nor confusion that one might expect at this unusual scenario.
His arms slightly outstretched suggest that he is content with this odd transformation, perhaps embracing the experience as though it was inevitable.

The trees around the man are bare, as though this image was captured in winter perhaps.
The tall and thick trunks of the trees add a subtle warm orange and brown tone to the otherwise stark landscape. The forest floor is a light reddish-brown colour from the dead pine needles left by the trees.

This portrait image is cropped as a square like shape, much like a music CD or record cover. The photo is of a woman sat on a rocky ledge of a cliff. She is looking outward into the distance and not at the camera. She is wearing a white floaty victorian styled dress. A cloudless blue sky contrasts with the flowing red hair of the model. The image has a slightly green hue to it, much like the vintage record covers that are colour degraded by age.

This self portrait image is titled, ‘A Safe Place.’
This is a photo of a large nest that takes up the entire image. Layers of branches ranging from thick blocks down to small twigs are arranged in a circular pattern. A girl is laying down in the middle in a foetal position with her face unseen. She is wearing a cream coloured floaty dress and appears to be at peace or asleep. The light is focused on this area of the figure on the floor, drawing attention to the vastness of the surround nest.

A man stands with his eyes closed and his chest bare in a darkened forest of tall fur trees. As the viewer, we’re looking in through shattered glass with shards broken and reflecting a distorted version of the image. The man has long auburn hair and pale Winter skin. A tattoo adorns each arm; hands held together in prayer and the other of Owain Glyndwr on horseback.

This square image is in black and white. The bottom third is of a dark grassy mountain top, with a moody grey sky behind. To the far right of the photo is the silhouette of a figure dressed in black. Large crows seem to be emanating and bursting out of the left side of the figure. Shattered fragments of her litter the air as if she disintegrates into pieces. The flock of crows are in flight and are moving away from her through the sky.

The landscape format image is in tones of dark blue and green of a rocky landscape with two trees protruding from the stoney environment. The photo is littered with pale coloured hands, reaching form the cracks in the rocks and from around the trees. Each hand is clutching at the landscape, as is trying to holding on with great force. One hand to the far right reaches up and grabs at thin air.

This is a square image, of a grassy mountain top with a moody grey cloudy sky behind. The image however has been rotated 90 degrees so that the landscape is on it's side. A ginger woman is sitting on a chair in the landscape, her face covered by long hair swept up in the wind. Around her lay other wooden brown chairs, fallen down and laying on their sides.

A moody portrait of a woman with long ginger hair stood in a forest. Four creepy looking greeny-blue hands grab and cover her face and body as if holding her in place. However, the woman’s eyes are visible and she is looking directly into the camera.

This is a landscape image of a seascape. A shallow wave laps against a rectangular mirror that is standing up in the water. The sea is a dark shade of blue mixed with white bubbles of foam. In the mirror, you can see a human figure dressed in black with long auburn hair. Their head is turned away from the mirror so we cannot see who they are but it appears as though they are walking out into the depths of the sea.

This is a black and white portrait photograph of a man’s face. The image has been taken close to the model’s face. He appears to be neutral in mood and is looking directly outward in a friendly manner. The image is distorted with layers of the photo cut up in small sections and placed slightly off to create a disjointed effect. The left side of the image is shadowy and shows the curves and facial features of the model.

This is a monochromatic portrait image of the band, Dead End Disco. The image is black and white with a slight dirty orange and brown tone. The two band members are stood apart and looking away from each other in a field of tall grass which is surrounded by dark trees in the distant background. Between them floats a black figure with a sheep’s skull for a face. The photograph has textured lines across it, as though it was an photo of a TV screen.

This is a black and white landscape image of a dark woodland area. Tall trees emerge from a sloped hillside. To the middle left section of the photograph stands a tall and wide tree. From the side of the tree a pale arm reaches around, clutching at the tree trunk. The body that this arm would be attached to is unseen and obscured from view by the tree.

This is a black and white square shaped image. There is a grassy landscape pictures, taking up the bottom third of the image. Crouched, as if in pain stands a girl with her face in her hands. The back of her body is exploding into ribbons of black fabric, as if she was disintegrating. These pointed ribbons of material float in the air and seem to be carried away by a gust of wind.

This self portrait image is titled, ‘Caged.’
The photograph is of a woodland area with a of mass of cardboard boxes stacked on top of each other on the ground forming a long wall. The boxes are bathed in golden sunlight and stand out against the dark forrest behind. A girl in a peachy cream coloured floaty dress is sat in one of the boxes with her hands over her head as if in distress or trying to comfort herself.

This square image depicts a pathway scene with bare tress in Winter on the left and right side with a tarmac grey path running from the centre out into the horizon. Stood in the centre of the photo is an ornate gold frame with a pair of legs wearing black jeans and boots protruding form it. The top half of the figure is invisible, as though he frame was some kind of portal with only the bottom half of the individual visible.

This portrait image seems magical and unearthly for the scene depicted within it. A lake can be seen, rising into the background with winter’s bare trees on either side. A woman in a silver dress is levitating above with her back arched as if in ecstasy. The water beneath her reflects her mirrored image and show no clue as to how she is floating in midair. The image is toned in faded blue and orange tones.

A snowy landscape scene in a field with a gloomy and stormy sky behind sets an atmospheric scene. Numerous red floating cooked figured stand in the image, appearing to be facing different directions and without cause. A single white cloaked figure levitates in the centre of the image, separate form the others and looks directly towards the camera. Crows fly in the distance behind this scene.

This is a landscape wide shot of a girl with auburn hair floating in the centre of the image in a forest scene. She is wearing a long red dress that flows downwards to the ground and then loops around the image twice in a circular pattern. Her arms are placed criss-cross style over her chest and her hair also appears to be floating. The forest scheme around her is in tones of green and dark brown for the floor. Beams of light fall through the canopy of trees and light the red fabric and girl.
