Slightly more interesting than cardboard. Photographer, scribbler of words and a lapsed filmmaker.

Jacque Tati’s Playtime is a brilliant piece of cinema. I love every frame.

It is messy. Always has been messy and as age takes me and lowers me into the dirt it will continue to be messy until they are playing me my favourite song out of the church.

Then the ghost of me might be quiet.
Then again probably not.
Heckles in the afterlife are a given.

A series of four black and white portrait photographs of two people playing X-Box. The shots are front on. One person is concentrating whilst the other plays along in a silly manner.

A landscape black and white photograph of some buildings in Broughty Ferry just outside Dundee. The sunlight is hitting the old brickwork lighting it up along with some pampas grass poking over a brick wall.

I also make images on film (35mm and medium format 120). Mostly black and white and urban but with a smattering of landscape work. I have a website www.dewhitephotography.com if you are interested to see more....and that ends the plugging section of the "getting to know me I am new here"
Black and white urban landscape photograph of a person waiting in the rain at a crossing. They are stood in front of an impressive art deco building. A white van passes in the background. A black and white landscape photograph of an outcrop of rocks set mid frame. There are white fluffy clouds above them and a hill of grass below them. Black and white urban landscape photograph of a train station platform. It is a sunny day, sunlit creates shadows on the platform through a window midframe of the image. Four passengers are seen sitting on benches - they are spread out one at each end of the two benches it is obvious they don't know each other.

I was lucky enough to photograph a great poetry night in Southampton, England called 451. There I got to see fantastic poets and make images of them as they worked. I was introduced to so many poets I knew nothing about. I was able to see Shane Koyczan and made this image of him.
A black and white portrait of the poet Shane Koyczan - he is stood in front of a microphone with his eyes closed, arm out stretched, he is mid-verse.

Hello - these three images and text are part of a on-going self portrait/poetry project called "Making Sense of Birdsong"

A portrait of a bald man with a grey beard - he is sitting at a table with his glasses and a mug by a window with a kitchen visible in the background. The man is double exposed, almost ghost like in the image so much so you can see the chair. This image is above some text which reads: There is a template for life in your head. It is generational. Handed down. There is history in each line looking to be learnt from. It is all about finding and protecting the next steps in journeys worth taking. Motifs as repetitive as wallpaper patterns. Find patterns that are familiar but can be claimed as your own. Then sing your song. A portrait of a bald man with a grey beard - he is sitting on a bed with his glasses in front of him. The man is double exposed, almost ghost like in the image so much so you can see the bed behind him. This image is above some text which reads: I learnt my patterns. ​ They were started by my parents Then I took hold of the sequences Filled them full of the connections I needed to make them mine So that the world could hear my syncopation My attempts to find my music, my voice. I learnt my patterns. They stuttered Raising ridges of waves Scraping the floor and dispersing Against the clouds on a good day. I learnt my patterns. Dots and dashes Long drum rolls and cymbal splashes For better or worse I can be heard offering the wind advice often ignored. I learnt my patterns. Stretched to everywhere But gathered at the foot of my bed. I learnt my patterns. Because it was my nature Nurtured by the world around me The one I have been making in me for fifty years. I learnt my patterns. A portrait of a bald man with a grey beard - he is sitting on a chair beside a single unmade bed with his glasses placed on the mattress. The man is double exposed, almost ghost like in the image so much so you can see the chair behind him. This image is above some text which reads: One day I lost my song. I can’t quite remember when or where but all I know Is that I woke up one morning and I had Unlearned everything that I knew to be true in my life. Everything that made me who I am. Why I had a sense of being was gone With the loss of my song. Now some would say, that maybe, The song was never there to begin with. Maybe that is true. As I have said, I lost my truth When I lost my song, so it is very difficult To agree to disagree with that observation. Yet, patterns learnt unraveling Like a picked at woolly jumper is not the norm. So, the morning I woke up with no song My learnt behavior undone With my song seemingly sung I reached for new sheet music and listened What else was there to be done.
