This is an initial image for a small series of photographs recording and detailing dead bird life? on our roads.
My objective with my photographs is to try to bring to the fore and recognise the strange beauty in the death of these creatures. To help do that I will use the 'negative' effect, a kind of reversal in a way, and which in fact can reflect on the 'inside out' nature of what we sometimes see in roadkill, I feel. Also, it will represent a form of photographic fossilisation...
My aim is to solely photograph dead birds because they, I think; can offer up a more beautiful interpretation.
As usual, it will still be a slightly morbid challenge in finding the right subject that can fulfill this project...but I hope to do it justice.
Titles are subject to change...
