Old House
Al's Place, Cooks Hill
Newcastle, Australia
‘Al would have a mug of tea and a cigarette every morning as he stood in the gateway. If you enlarge the image, you will see an old teabag tag hanging off one of the plants.
Al kept to himself and didn't seem to leave his old house too often - taking heed of the direction he had painted the Keep Out sign.
The brightly painted borders are reminiscent of a style found in Portugal
When I asked if I could photograph him, he politely declined but was happy enough for me to make this picture of Al's place.’

‘I make photographs to hang on walls and be appreciated for lifetimes. The soft texture of these bright white papers is integral to how I want you to see and ‘feel’ my work.’
Foley Fine Art Prints are supplied with a signed Certificate of Authenticity. They are expertly crafted to ensure archival quality on Ilford Prestige Galerie Smooth Cotton Rag or Hahnemühle Photo Rag heavyweight paper. The paper size allows for a 20mm white border, but as I treat each scene individually, different pictures may have bespoke crop or form factors.
