TITLE: UK Streets

These photos were created over a three year period in Birmingham, London and my home town, Swansea. All the images use the surrounding environment of architecture or nature, to frame a person in context and highlight their small presence.

AUTHOR: Lee Aspland (United Kingdom)

I am a photographer, author, and teacher who specialises in Mindful Photography. My work focuses on using photography as a therapeutic tool to process life experiences, emotions, and personal change. This is a practice of creating images that reflect thoughts, feelings, hopes, or fears. I have written several eBooks and recently published a comprehensive book titled A Mindful Approach to Photography Saved My Life (and It Might Save Yours) (2024).

Outside of this practice I am also drawn to photograph the human condition on the streets. My work tends to reflect the environments we find ourselves, even though we are often oblivious to our surroundings.
