As well as being a photographic story teller, I'm a writer. So each print comes with the following story, printed on A5 Fuji Matt paper with colourfast inks. 


The Holloway
   
Walking down
An ancient pathway
For people’s feet
For sheep’s feet
For cattle’s feet
Ground down Into the ground
Hedges tall
On either side.
The Holloway.
 
In the words of the brilliant natural history writer Robert Macfarlane:
“Holloway - an ancient sunken path, harrowed down into landscape by centuries of rainfall, wheel-run, hoof-hit & foot-fret. Where trees reach & clasp over a holloway, it feels more ghostly green time-slip tunnel than an open path.”
    
Macfarlane is so right about the time-slip nature of such paths. Part of the fact they’re so old, and so enclosed, quieter than the fields around. They’re like a magical, sinuous grotto, stretching both ways into the past.
