Barclays bank asked me to get some new ‘approachable’ photos of their CEO of consumer banking, Ashok Vaswani. Take a look, I was lucky to get access to the rooftop. 

My story on China’s Mars Simulation Base was printing in the amazingly cool, “Avaunt Magazine”  over a massive 16 pages. Heres a couple of DPS layouts. Some really nice photography in Avaunt.  

This October I have been making a series of images looking at the booming wine industry in the South of England during the harvest season. ‘English Sparkling’ is now making huge inroads in the Champagne world.  The county of Sussex shares virtually the same climate and soil conditions as much of the Champagne region and some vineyards have beaten Champagne in blind tasting awards. I wanted to make a slightly curious collection of images and move it away from the sunset over vineyard scene as much as possible. The full gallery can be seen here but here is a snippet. 

My long running project looking at China’s relationship with the natural world was published in Tortoise Media last week as a nice long photo essay feature.  Read the full feature here. 

I took a trip down to Brighton seafront on the 70th day of ‘lockdown’, ie the 30th of May. Being the last weekend before further restrictions were to be eased I found a festival-like atmosphere on the seafront.  There has never been a sunnier spring in the UK and an overwhelmingly young demographic of Brighton and Hove residents were out enjoying it. Largely exciting but also a little worrying to see.. Heres an edit.
