CLOUDS Harp Quartet
It was a wintery day in February with just the right amount of clouds to take the harshness out of the daylight to get some photos with beautiful soft lighting as a result.

The Whitworth is not only one of my favourite galleries in Manchester, it also has some brilliant nooks and crannies perfect for photography. The huge windows in both the old building and the newly added wing shed an abundant amount of natural light which -on a typical Mancunian cloudy day- provides a flattering light that makes the subject glow from within.

Sheona White is internationally renowned as ‘The Voice of the Tenor Horn’ and has performed and toured as a soloist throughout Europe, Asia, Australasia and the USA. We met a couple of years ago and she got in touch to see if I was free to take photos for her upcoming album.
