About Anna's Cornwall View
|
Welcome to my website, which showcases a selection of my images of coastal locations in Cornwall, in the southwest of the UK. I was originally inspired to take up digital photography in 2006, in order to create a record of the Cornish landscape where I walk. My photography has greatly evolved since then. My primary goal has become the attempt to convey my personal constructions of the essence and mood of a place or moment and I particularly value spontaneity. I enjoy photographing the extremely picturesque views that Cornwall is renowned for but I've grown to prefer very simple scenes and those that might be considered mundane. |

Structural framework
1. Geography
I've organised my work in terms of three levels of geographical location. At the coarsest level, I've divided the whole Cornwall coastline into nine major parts, which roughly correspond to the areas presented on nine Ordinance Survey Explorer maps. They follow the coastline in an anti-clockwise manner, beginning on the north coast and ending on the south coast by their boundaries with the neighbouring county of Devon. As yet, none of these parts is complete and there are large swathes of coastline that I've not covered. My website is a long term project and I continually add new galleries and update existing ones on an on-going basis.
Since I've covered a large number of locations in some parts, I've further divided them into smaller, more manageable, sections which contain a number of individual galleries. These galleries are the finest level and cover a small area, such as a single beach. Each gallery is linked to the ones in adjacent locations, meaning you can view the entire coastline I've covered by clicking on 'Next>>' or '<< Previous'.
For simplicity, I've also included a page where the locations featured are listed alphabetically.

2. Image media
In addition to digital photography, I enjoy all kinds of film photography (medium format, 35mm, toy camera and instant) and iphoneography. In my recent website reorganisation I removed them but I'm gradually adding them back.
I hope you enjoy viewing my images, thanks for visiting.
