On A Road, On A Journey

THE ROAD AND THE JOURNEY AS SYMBOLS - A PHOTO ESSAY

In his latest book of photography Benjamin Hargreaves brings us a celebration of travel with images taken during journeys through the United Kingdom, Europe, India, Australia, the USA, Cuba and elsewhere. The book uses images of roads, tracks and waterways to evoke both a literal journey and a metaphorical sense of life as a journey.

What readers think of On A Road, On A JOurney:

"I'm really enjoying it and it puts me in to a sort of meditative state whilst looking at it. I'm very impressed as I know that was your intention but I am amazed that you have managed to achieve it purely with photographs. They really are very evocative and I am interested that they need no text other than their location to achieve that effect." MA

Welcome

Thank you for visiting the site of Benjamin Hargreaves. This website is dedicated to my photo books.

My first book Cars in the Landscape was published in 2015. It is a celebration of the beauty of cars in the landscape, reclaiming for the motor car a more poetic and symbolic sense of its role, paying attention to what is beautiful rather than just what is efficient.

On A Road, On A Journey, a follow-up to Cars in the Landscape, is a celebration of travel with images taken during journeys through the United Kingdom, Europe, India, Australia, the USA, Cuba and elsewhere.

The images of roads, tracks and waterways evoke a sense of journeys both outer and inner.
