Light Sensitive presents the stunning crafted photography of Kathy Harcom, whose work focuses on both the natural world and human artifice. Kathy brings to her varied subjects an individual perspective that combines technical skill and creative vision.A darkroom-based 'traditional' monochrome worker, Kathy makes extensive use of three particular photographic techniques to work her magic on her chosen subjects: infrared photography, lith printing and hand-colouring. In Light Sensitive she shares her techniques in straightforward essays, providing sufficient insight to give even novices the opportunity to emulate her craft skills.What Kathy's techniques achieve is a distinctive rendition of the qualities of light that breathe life into her images. The extended sensitivity of infrared film brings to the print qualities that are not normally visible to the human eye, complemented by the contrasting gentle highlights and stark blacks of the lith printing process and the surreal application of hand-colouring. These are images that are memorable - sometimes even haunting - but always stimulating.

Light Sensitive: The Photography of Kathy Harcom

Harcom, Kathy

This is a book combining photography and poetry to describe a journey a self-discovery to reaching self-understanding and personal fulfillment. The book shows how this process can be applied to managing a successful change process in large organizations. A sumptuous, up-market presentation aimed both at the art market and senior executives and human resources leaders in large organizations. The book will be used as the basis for personal counseling and corporate development seminars. The author is a blend of artist and scientist. He is an infrared photographer seeking to express nature's beauty and essence and also a PhD biochemist who has studied the molecular basis of life. Through the application of MA studies in psychosynthesis and his practice as a psychotherapist, the author continues to explore the nature of who we are and how the self we aspire to become is the essential source of our passion, potential and healing in our lives and relationships.

Reunited some 40 years after leaving Queen Elizabeth’s Grammar School in Ashbourne, Derbyshire, schoolboy friends David Tong and Peter Karry discovered that, alongside building successful professional careers, they had each developed artistic talents – David in poetry and Peter in photography. They decided to use these skills to collaborate on this book, celebrating the theme of friendship – a decision made the more poignant by the death in a recent swimming accident of Keith Jeffery, a mutual friend from their schooldays. Peter’s splendid photographs beautifully complement David’s emotive verse to produce an artistic tour de force that will resonate with all those who value the joy of true friendship.
