A monochrome, intentional camera movement image of swirling trees and branches on a slightly yellow background with faded edges. Perhaps it's signifies the agelessness of Woodlands.

I've started going back through my archives and came across this one I had forgotten I'd taken. It's definitely not the kind of thing I shoot now, but I loved the sense of experimentation.

I think this is going into a new folder called "Photos I don't remember taking but actually really like".

#smalltowninertia2 1 to 1 mentoring

You know the drill… hit the ALT for all the info 🙏✌️
#smalltowninertia2 1 to 1 photography mentoring is now available with me. Message for all the info. I specialise in mono photography, long form documentary, interview techniques, audio recording, sequencing & post production of pictures & how to find/develop stories & maybe most importantly how to maintain your mental health & keep your mojo rising when your backs against a wall. 🙏✌️ Dave Stelfox wrote in The Guardian that “Mortram’s rich, black-and-white images possess a timeless quality that invites easy comparison with the classic documentary work of such British photographers as Chris Steele Perkins, Paul Trevor and Chris Killip.”

Pledging for a signed copy of the book with a print plus both add-ons...Travelogue 2 and my new add on, the Behind the Scenes print.
Wonderful.

You might have wondered what I've been up to over the last 2 years as I shared with you some ‘Behind the Scenes’ photographs from some very wet and windy locations in the UK.
Today I launch the Kickstarter campaign for my new book ‘The Edge of Ruin’, where you can preorder a copy

Read the ALT!
smalltowninertia.bsky.social Jim Mortram : SMALL TOWN INERTIA @smalltowninertia.bsky.social · Jul 11
#smalltowninertia On a HDD, in a folder, I’ve kept out of the tens of thousands made over the last 15 years a small collection of some that I appear in. I’ve no interest in sharing them because I’m in them but I do want to share them to show you a little of what long form means.

Read the ALT 🙏
Long form means real relationships. Real friendships. Real emotions. In these few photos, they demonstrate shared pains, shared anxiety & shared moments. Long form means you share self with self with others. When I realised that I had trauma related PTSD, sometime in 2019, after what was a 3 year panic attack, after I finally sought help (& got it!) you know who was there for me?… everyone you see in the photos that I share & that we make together. At first I was too scared to go out incase I had a panic attack that would manifest in extreme phobia of illness culminating in de-personalisation, you cannot breath, feel death is imminent (everything feels like a movie - even typing it gives me the heebie jeebies!, it’s like a really bad acid trip) because as my Doc said “You can only fill a pint of stress in a pint glass… you’ve tried to fit an ocean in there!… of course it spills over!.” …but every time I was made to feel loved “Don’t worry, if you do we will look after you!” & they did, time & time again. Long form is strangers becoming your chosen family, your community. Then Covid… the enforced isolation gave me, forced me to slow down some & gave me time to heal up a bit. We have bonds that feel born on front lines. Born of shared pains, fears & together we have each other’s back & tend to one another’s wound & later swap stories about the scars. We’ve been through a lot, together. I’ll forever protect them all & amplify their testimony. A post like this one, I’ll make every five years or so, so overwhelmingly the focus is, my focus is, to never detract from their truth & my promise to always, all ways amplify it. I guess I just wanted you all to know that we love & care for one another… because before the camera comes intent & care & the people we are. That’s what long form photography is for me. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/iar/small-town-inertia-2

Meditations 8: another image in this ongoing series of quieter and more reflective images on my blog

Meditations 8
An image from late-2023 that’s been sat on my hard drive for the intervening period as I debated whether I wanted to share it or not. But since starting the Meditations series I realised that it fitted the theme very nicely. The scene is a rubbish-strewn back street in Elland. It’s rained recently and theirs an air of damp melancholy about the scene.

We've been having a spring clean here at APP HQ and uncovered a number of 'seconds' of rare out-of-print titles - zines & books - which we've added to our store (most are single copies).

Have a look and see if there are any you'd like to bag - anotherplacepress.bigcartel.com (not all shown below)

Dreaming of cool, misty Novembers on the moors.
Not to worry, looks like this heat will be passing soon 🥵 (yes, I’m a bit of a whimp when it comes to hot weather)
