Our Photo of the Month is a new feature where we aim to showcase photographs of outstanding quality and beauty. For October we are presenting an incredible image by Tim Wallace called ‘Northern Tide‘. This is such a dramatic photograph with wonderfully vivid colours. Tim says “Northern Tide is part of a set of images that I’m working on to produce contemporary photography using an old weathered chair, basically in places that you would not expect to find a chair.”

“This shot was taken just next to the pier at Saltburn on the North East coast at the very early hours of 4:50am as the sun was rising. The chair was placed in approx 3 inches of water as the tide started to wash in as I wanted a soft flow of water coming through the chair towards the viewer. It’s one of my favourite shots in the series and I think its quite peaceful overall with a gentle feeling of space.”

You can purchase this photographic art piece on canvas, acrylic or as a poster from the Fotoviva Art Prints online store at www.fotoviva.co.uk. We also have more of Tim’s contemporary, automotive and landscape prints available and you can check out his new photoblog here.

We are very happy to announce the arrival of Tim Wallace to the Fotoviva contributor team. Based in the North East and with over 20 years experience in the field of photography covering fields such as public relations, Media, commercial and business, Tim delivers a unique style of work that is both creative and contemporary. He owns a photographic company called Ambient Life that provides high quality photography to both corporate and domestic clients.

Tim says “I believe that the mark of a good photographer is not simply being technically capable but to have the imagination, and drive to pull off that ‘great’ image that lasts in peoples memories.”

His interest in photography started at the young age of 8, fascinated by the way a print appears when being developed. From that point it’s been a major passion in his life. At the age of 16 he started work in the darkrooms of the Western Morning News (Daily Mail Group) where he learned the art of printing and had a baptism of fire into the world of photojournalism, working with many great photographers from both the National Press and agencies such as The Press Association.

At 19 he joined the DCP Photographic Agency based in the South West and went on to spend all his time behind the camera rather than in the darkroom. Tim’s strong knowledge of lighting conditions and exposure controls allowed him to gain much success and mixed with a more ‘contemporary’ style to his work soon found favor with UK the National Press having work published in The Guardian, Independent, and Times to name but a few.

At the age of 23 he had a change of plan and joined the Royal Navy, serving with 42 Commando Royal Marines in many parts of the world. After 5 years service he followed a more corporate route working with Companies such as Hutchison Telecom, Orange, Freeserve, and NTL (Virgin Media).

Tim currently shoots a large volume of work for Aston Martin that has been viewed in such high regard that a specialised ‘Aston Art’ online print gallery will be launched later this month. We have a large range of his work coming to the store over the next few weeks but you can find a few of them in the Modern Art section already. We are very happy to have Tim sell his art through us and look forward to seeing more of his work in the near future.
