Before the shoot

A seated portrait made a few minutes before the main session, with the set still half arranged around the subject.

Walking in, late morning

A single frame from the first week of October, made on the way into the venue before the programme began.

A different register. These are the days when the photographer is a guest with a very small camera and a promise to be brief.

A walkabout is the opposite of a set piece. The line moves at the speed of the slowest conversation and the light is whatever the street gives you.

Two frames from the games weekend. The sport is a story for someone else; I was there for the quiet intervals between events.
