Kurien Koshy Yohannan

My name is Kurien Koshy Yohannan (Koshy for short!!) and my photography
venture goes by the name of Black Stallion Photography.

Photography started off as a hobby for me but now it plays a major role in my life. There is so much beauty around us; nature is full of beauty waiting for us to capture it, if we have the eye and receptiveness for it. I intend to capture this beauty through my camera lens for all to enjoy and behold. Through my photography I would like people to appreciate the world we live in and hope that it may provide a renewed enthusiasm for people to safeguard the beautiful planet that we call home. We tend to take Planet Earth for granted and we tend to abuse it and I for one, through my photography, would like to be a catalyst for people to safeguard what we have been entrusted with – this beautiful planet called Earth.

My favourite photographic subjects are landscapes, nature and wildlife. There is endless beauty contained in these subjects and I love capturing the beauty that is all around. The planet we live in is filled with endless species of plants and animals, each with its own set of unique features and beauty and I am certain that these subjects will keep me busy for some time to come. These may be the most photographed subjects in the world but I intend to offer a different slant, if possible, through my images. Along with varied flora and fauna, the world’s topography is varied and beautiful in its many forms and that is another thing that fascinates me and often times takes my breath away. Another favourite subject is what I term as Skyscapes – patterns in the sky. In our hurried and busy life, I am sure that very few of us take the time to look up at the sky above us to see the beauty that lies literally above our heads. No two sunrises or sunsets are ever the same and one could make a career out of capturing sunrises and sunsets and not many photographs would be the same.

Many roads lead to Black Stallion Country. Feel free to take one and drop by
anytime. We’d love to see you there.

Alex Marsaud

Hi, my name is Alexandre Marsaud and I am a self-taught French photographer and only take inspiration from what surrounds me directly and catches my eye. A very practical and on-the-terrain trial and error method has allowed me to discover and explore my photographic style and to evolve as well. I tend to be drawn to odd/abstract things that would otherwise pass us by. Most people might find these uninteresting or worthless, but I am fascinated by the story they often tell and how people’s reaction to it shows human nature in the rawest of forms. I've also grown very fond of looking at usual things with an unusual eye and through a different angle, as it brings a fresh look onto what we thought we knew. More conventional beauty, whether man-made or natural, also take my fancy, in the form of mostly black and white sepia-toned timeless architectural or portrait shots.

I have been living in Yorkshire for the past 3 years and selling my work at local Arts and Crafts markets and recently showcased a series of black and white architectural photographs entitled “Vantage Point” in a local arts gallery in Keighley. I have also been doing some commissioned work, mainly corporate and sports events, weddings and studio portraiture. I have now moved to Luxembourg and you can see my latest pictures of this beautiful town, together with some of my most representative work, on my website and if you want to get updated on my latest photographs and events, come and visit my Twitter and Facebook pages.

Graham Rhodes & Aakschipper Images

In August 2009, on his 60th birthday, Graham Rhodes opened a small gallery exhibiting a selection of his unique photographs. This gallery is in an unusual location, above the public conveniences, halfway along Scarborough ’s West Pier in a grade two listed building that once housed a company buying and selling fresh fish. Since opening he has sold images to visitors and holiday makers from throughout the UK, South Africa, America, Holland, Australia and Korea.

Graham has been manipulating images all his working life. As a book and record sleeve designer creating images for such clients as Octopus Books, Squeeze, The Cramps & The Police (the band not the force!), then as an audio-visual designer, video director and conference producer. In his time he designed product launches for Monster Munch & new car launches for Volvo and Rover. He has crerated public information films for the Home Office and Yorkshire Water, annual revues for Bass and the Co-operative Bank. In the heritage sector he created the successful York Story, was introduced to HRH Queen for his audio visual work inside London's Science Museum and has both video and audio visual programmes featured in many other museums. After eighteen years in London he returned to Yorkshire to head up the production arm of a York based company. In 2001, now a full time scriptwriter for both corporate videos and computer games he moved to Scarborough where he founded a small pub based theatre company. However in 2008 his purchase of a digital camera galvanised him to take his own photographs. Recognising the computer was a unique opportunity to manipulate image and colour, he took some months out to learn Photoshop techniques, allowing him to realize his own personal artistic interpretation of the scene.

“My aim is to create photographic images that create a sense of timelessness through manipulation of colour and tone thus allowing the viewer to choose their own interpretation of the image and its rightful place in time and location.”
