Photographing the Ephemeral
A family swimming pool, built in 1920’s Havering-atte-Bower, on the East London/Essex hinterland.
It stands no more.
The property bought and renovated did not have the modern attitude to renovating the structure.
Shortly after creating these images the pool disappeared the way ‘development’ removes the past.

‘Vertical Noire’ 06
3 images of ‘Bucket City’ E6 6b, Dove Crag, English Lake District, UK (c 1998).
The 3rd image reveals the steepness of the route as the leader abseils to retrieve the runners. The 2nd (me) failed to get even 15 metres up this 45m pitch! The leader ( Simon Nadin) moved with such smoothness and confidence I thought it must be manageable for someone of my limited abilities. Wrong! So very wrong!
More images in this series can be viewed on my Royal Photographic Society album at http://rps.org/member/gallery/rob-thomas/Vertical-Noire
A series of images from scans of colour transparencies, converted to monochrome through Lightroom and Photoshop.
