The brief:
As you'd expect, I took a load of photos during my recent trip to France, and we'll see a few of them cropping up here during the weeks to come.
I was particularly intrigued by this ruined house, which reminded me of the sort of ruins you see in old war films and games like Call of Duty. Of course, I photographed this scene on a bright, calm day. What would it look like in the heat of battle?

The brief:
We were having lunch in the country last weekend when these magnificent beasts appeared on the other side of the river. I was so taken with them, I just had to photograph them.
Carol, my partner, couldn't understand what I wanted photographs of cows for. Come to think of it, I'm not sure myself. Surely there's some purpose these beautiful animals can be put to?
