In advertising they say the pen is mightier than the sword. I'll take on anyone armed with a pen. And watch them run!

Tom Evans, CD, Sapient Nitro:
Keep it simple
Dr Cecilia d'Felice's psychological interpretation:
This relaxed composition suggests a man who is at ease with himself and the world. In this monochrome there is a sense of nostalgia, redolent of times less frantic and a chance to sit, talk and think.

Suzanne Dean, CD, Random House:
Rodchenko wrote: "One has to take several different shots of a subject, from different points of view and in different situations, as if one examined it in the round rather than looked through the same key-hole again and again."
 
I took inspiration from my love of Rodchenko’s innovative, graphic photographs.  I wanted a portrait that was both simple and complex at the same time. That incorporated his use of contrast and experimental perspective.
