This photographic blog, curated by John Beverley, an elderly Englishman living in the north of the country presents a considered and methodical approach to image-making in the digital age. The work is characterised by a preference for simplicity and directness, with photographs taken using modest equipment—principally compact digital cameras and a mobile telephone—without recourse to elaborate post-processing.

The images are presented in chronological order, each accompanied by a brief title and date. There is no commentary or embellishment, allowing the photographs to stand on their own merit. The style is reminiscent of mid-20th-century documentary photography, favouring clarity, composition, and a quiet observational stance.

Beverley’s approach eschews the more theatrical tendencies of contemporary digital photography. Instead, it reflects a sensibility rooted in the traditions of negative film and the contact sheet—a form of visual note-taking that privileges the everyday over the exceptional.

The blog is hosted on Micro.blog and is structured with restraint and clarity. It serves not as a portfolio, but as a visual journal: a record of places visited, objects noticed, and moments preserved. Those with an interest in the quieter virtues of photographic practice may find it of interest.
