Product Description

Product Description

Mark Simmons has been capturing images of Bristol since the early 1980s. His early work featured street scenes and characters from the St Paul's and St Werburgh's areas where he then lived. As Mark developed his hobby into a career, his passion for creating powerful images of ordinary people has been and inspirational theme in his work. 'There's nothing very complicated to my photography. I just generally like people,'; says Mark. 'That's not to say it's easy getting a good picture of someone - it's very difficult - but it's about finding a way to connect with people; being sensitive to their particular character and story.'

Great pictures 31 Jan 2009
This is not a book that is about the City of Bristol it is a collection of black and white photographs not all of which were taken in Bristol. Mark Simmons has used the power of black and white imagery to capture moments in time all of which are well worth enjoying. If you are a photographer then there is much to learn about 'in your face' pictures of people. If you just like people well there are a few good laughs as well as more serious images. Should be enjoyed with a black, dark, real coffee.
