The Farm 2010

A few shots from my latest documentary project that I worked on during October 2010. I tried to focus on items and machinery that have been left and possibly forgotten to make way for modernisation and to maintain a profitable business.

Although people would believe I'm trying to show the downfall of British agriculture and possibly a derelict farm, I'm not!

Having grown up with farm life and living in the middle of the countryside I feel very strongly about this subject. I understand how difficult and frustrating times can get. 

As this was for a university assignment I only had 12 weeks to draw this to a close, but I believe it's no where near complete. I think it needs a slow approach which could possibly span years just to get a good set.

This is just the starting point!

All shot on 35mm with either FP4 or HP5.
