I took these five photographs through a hospital room window in Torre del Mar whilst visiting Paul, my partner of 20 years and father of my 14 year old son. Paul has been hospitalised for almost a month: he was admitted with jaundice and is now dying of end stage liver disease (hepatic cirhossis, alcoholic). [...]

These photographs form a series of photos which I took whilst walking the dog in the area behind my villa in Puente don Manuel, Alcaucin. The tranquil long walks – and sometimes “climbs” – were through the paths in the olive orchards.
