The Night

Who Owns the Night is a current project.

 

I am blogging the process at shipleynights.blogspot.com

 

I am also looking for models who live in and around Shipley.

 

Are you happy to talk about your experiences and feelings about using the spaces around Shipley after the sun sets?

 

Are you willing to be photographed in locations of your choosing?

In our own words

I'm a tour guide in Saltaire and I wear Victorian clothes at the tours. Tours take place in daylight and also on dark evenings. People in the group interact differently when it's dark and it's fun. They are less inhibited and there is a calm and stillness. Unless there is a thunderstorm.

I travel on buses and trains. I walk a lot as well. Shipley and Saltaire feel OK at night and Leeds is OK too. Bradford doesn't feel right.
