Steel Town at Twilight
by Paul Potts
Sony A7R IV, Sigma DG DN 85mm f/1.4,
45 secs at f/8, ISO 50
‘I have always enjoyed the juxtaposition of the valleys,
sea, and steelworks of my home town of Port Talbot.
They are very striking at night,’ says Paul, whose name
might sound familiar. ‘Ordinarily I spend a good deal of
time travelling, as a singer, following my win in Britain’s
Got Talent in 2007,’ he tells us. ‘I rst bought a Canon
400D to record my travels as I toured around the world.
The more I travelled, the more I shot. This year, after
trips to Seoul and Tokyo, I had a long enforced break at
home, before a Christmas tour in Denmark which had
to be cut short, due to restrictions. But it teaches you
to be more creative with what’s on the doorstep.’
Britain has got talented photographers too and Paul is
surely one. This is a cracking industrial landscape,
perfectlyexecuted.FollowPaulat @paulpottsmusic.
