Thank you to The Global Journal for a great 3 page review of Home Work in their January & February 2011 issue #03.

I’m pleased to announce that my work from China was voted the Best Portfolio by the reviewers at Format Photography Festival on Saturday. Sadly I was travelling home on the train when it was announced at the award ceremony by Joel Meyerowitz.
The Format International Photography Festival ‘Right Here, Right Now’ runs until 3rd April with some great exhibitions and seminars related to street photography running between now and then.
