In another piece of great news my friend David Axelbank pointed out yesterday that I had won in the UK category of this year’s Magenta Foundation’s Flash Forward 2010, which I’d managed to miss in my inbox! This is great news and I’m honoured to join a long list of friends from both previous [...]

Portfolio Catalogue
I’m really pleased to announce that my work has been included in the latest issue of Portfolio Catalogue. This is amazing news for me. Back in about 1999 or 2000 my then tutor Dick Brownridge held up Portfolio as where to look for what is happening in contemporary photography so to have my [...]
Telegraph
I know it’s been quiet here for a while now but over the past few months I’ve had some great success with the Thames Town work starting off with Lucy Davies of the Telegraph running the work as a feature in the Sunday Telegraph magazine, Seven on 28th February. It was an interesting edit [...]

Came across this test for your colour vision on the X-rite site today -seen it before but thought I would post my results. Could do better but not horrible I suppose.

Fresh Faced and Wild Eyed 09
Well I have had an interesting week of it with trips back and forth to the Photographer’s Gallery in London. “The reason?”, I hear you ask… Well I have been part of a group exhibition showcasing who they deemed the most interesting graduates from the past 12 months on British photographic courses (I know, my [...]

I feel a bit like at school having to explain why my homework is late butseeing as i am currently dogless I have little excuse, [...]
New Site online!
Just a quick not really to make sure people are aware that I have given my website a complete overhaul. More changes are yet to come but for now have a look over on http://davewyatt.com and let me know what you think.
See, I said it was cold yesterday!
I woke up this morning and it was heavy snow coming down outside. Everything was really dull out light wise so didn’t make it outside to shoot but managed a few images when the sun came out briefly around half ten. First time I have shot digital since June as well. Resorted to it cos [...]
Beth Dow, Keith Taylor and old processes
I noticed today there have been a couple of Beth Dow’s images up on Flak. For those that don’t know Dow won the book prize on offer from Blurb this year with a series entitled In the Garden that presents a series of visages of man’s encroachment upon nature. You can see the series on [...]
More Exercise Spaces
Thought these would be better in a separate post to keep things uncluttered. Anyway, here are some more of the spaces cleared for exercise, this time in Xinghai Park.
Binhai Xi Lu 25th October 2008
Bit late updating this but thought I would add a little about a shoot I did last weekend. I finally manged to make some images along the coastal road Binhai Xi Lu, or West Binhai Road if you prefer. The one part of the actual road I wanted with the painted tarmac and blue lamppost [...]
Zoo 17th October 2008
Just some more images from the zoo, same shoot as from the images in the previous post but these are destined to live with the work I have been doing over the past few months in relation to the animals who live there.
Viewpoints
As mentioned in a previous post, I’ve started a new project focusing on the positions and structures used for viewing captive animals in an attempt to yet further try to understand our perverted relationship with the natural world. Not much else to write about this yet, but here are a few images all made in [...]
Golden Pebble Beach 26th August 2008
Despite the fact that we should have finished shooting by now the weather looked right this morning with that light white cloud that keeps things looking interesting and yet holds back the shadows well. With this in mind I went on the mission I have been putting off and went exploring Golden Pebble Beach (Jinshitan) [...]
Manchester Photography
Manchester Photography is a blog I have been reading lately that I think I came across looking for more information on Steffi Klenz. It is run by a photographer called Mark Page and is a witty, typically northern look at contemporary photography in Britain and his work reminds me of that of photographers such as [...]
And the cloud arrives!!! 29th July 2008
So I wake up today and thank god it’s grey and cloudy at last! By the time I get my shit together it has just started spitting with rain of course but oh well, it’s far enough to Thames town from where I am staying on West Yan’an Road that there is a chance I [...]
Tiger Beach, Dalian Friday 17th July
Weather was a bit too hazy today but went out with Nick again and convinced him to come down to Tiger Beach to check it out. Didn’t pay to go into the main area because it was afternoon by then and the place isn’t exactly cheap –will save the main area for a day with [...]
