This image was taken in February 2005. I wanted it to be a dramatic image and decided that the best way to achieve this was to photograph the bridge at dawn. At the time was very influenced by the movie Manhattan. Later that morning, cold and hungry, I found the Almondine Bakery on Water Street and went in for a coffee and croissant.

By now it was 6.30am and I was the first customer of the day. The owner, Hervé Poussot and I chatted for a little while, he liked my work and promised to allow me to hang my work on the cafe walls.

Happy with my days work I went home and got a cold from the weather.

In this card version the image is printed on a matte finish photo paper and mounted on a 5″ x 6.5″ Fabriano card. Card comes with an envelope.

The card makes for a wonderful way to say thank you, or you can keep it for yourself as fridge art or frame it.
