Robert Edwards

“The Corner of My Eye” — Street Photography by Robert “Eddie” Edwards.

These photographs are glimpses — moments half-seen, caught in passing, like a whisper in the wind. I take them while walking my dog along the Thames, where the city shifts and shimmers with every step. People pass, light falls, stories unfold for a heartbeat… then vanish.

Shot in black and white, these images are fragments of London’s South Bank — a place both familiar and ever-changing. I don’t go looking for pictures; they tend to find me. A reflection, a silhouette, a gesture — something small but electric, something seen not head-on but from the corner of my eye.

Jashika Patel

Jashika is a South African-born UK-based nature photographer, a wildlife lover and an explorer of our beautiful planet. Jashika’s love for wildlife and nature came before her love for photography and she has a slight addiction to paws and whiskers! She believes that photographs can inspire a love for our planet, creating a desire and awareness of what is needed to protect it.

While working full-time as an actuarial consultant, Jashika is happiest on the plains of the Maasai Mara or between icebergs in the Arctic. The wildlife photographs displayed here represent a curated selection from her travels across diverse ecosystems and continents. Each photograph tells a story of connection with the natural world – from intimate portraits to candid moments that reveal the personality and behaviour of wild animals in their natural habitats.

Mark Smith

I have lived and worked in London my whole adult life until retiring relatively early in 2018. This is when I took up photography and it became a kind of therapy for me, continually searching for the ultimate shot. Many of my images I think convey a sense of how small we are and often isolated in a towering city of 9 million people. Others are more abstract but still retain a human element. The time has come to print some off and see them in a non-digital frame.

I am an architect and a photographer. My passion for photography started in my teens, inspired by friends. My architectural studies fueled my artistic vision, leading me to explore light, form, and space. My first exhibition solidified my commitment to photography. I focus on landscape and street photography, finding beauty in the ordinary and capturing fleeting moments amidst chaos. My work is influenced by Impressionist painters and renowned photographers, and I approach my craft with technical skill, artistic vision, and perpetual curiosity. I continue to work on new projects, including exhibitions and books, while encouraging aspiring photographers to develop their unique style.
