Immerse yourself in Claymoor Palmer’s visual odyssey. Explore his photos and travels through the eyes of his camera. Above there are pictures of planes that were taken at a Wales air show in 2013.
These various photos of chandeliers were taken at various times and places. All of these photos were taken in a varying locations, all of British national heritage. The two on the right were both taken in August of2024.
Pets
Companions captured in their element
From sleepy cats to playful dogs and everything in between, these photographs celebrate the individual personalities of our animal companions. Each portrait is a study in trust — the quiet bond between photographer and subject.
Blodwyn
In these photos Blodwyn is a puppy. She is the youngest of her and her brother Django. She is a pure bred Welsh sheepdog and very energetic. She is quite smart, but has her own quirks, one of which is attempting to jump and bite the tall grass as it moves in strong Orkney winds.
Django
Django is the older of the two family dogs. He is a whippet poodle and quite stupid at most times. He enjoys eating grass, barking at rocks and trying to not-so-subtly climb into people’s laps, despite him being too large to comfortably do so.
Aloy
This is my childhood pet from my teenage years, Aloy. I named her myself, naming her after the video game protagonist and main character from Horizon Zero Dawn, I did this as she as a small patch of alloy coloured fur just above her nose. She enjoys sleeping in the sun, and in any box placed down for two seconds, though she also enjoys biting and scratching at people.
Orkney
Photography from the far north of Scotland
The light in Orkney arrives at a slant — cool, searching, reluctant to settle. Here, windswept coastlines give way to moorland that feels older than memory, and the standing stones hold their silence against skies of extraordinary theatre. Claymoor’s photographs seek the quiet drama that defines this place: the interplay of ancient stone, sea, and sky at the edge of the known world.
Wideford Hill Chambered Cairn
The Wideford Hill Chambered Cairn is a 5,000 year old chambered cairn, with three cells opening off the central chamber. It was originally accessed through a tunnel on the West side of the cairn, and is now accessed through an opening at the top of the cairn.
The Ring of Brodgar
The Ring of Brodgar is a Neolithic henge and stone circle in Mainland, Orkney, Scotland. It is the only major henge and stone circle in Britain which is an almost perfect circle.
St. Magnus Cathedral
St Magnus Cathedral is in Kirkwall, the capital city of the Orkney Islands, it is also known as the ‘Light in the North’. It was founded in 1137 by the Viking Earl Rognvald, in honour of his uncle St Magnus who was martyred in Orkney.
Light, land, and stone — Orkney through the lens.
Rome
New light on eternal stones
Rome does not simply exist in time — it accumulates it. Claymoor’s photographs move through the city as a visitor who has learned to be still. These photos were taken during his first year of college, on a trip that took him to the centre of Rome and to quite a few of the main places to go and look at as artists. Each frame is a meditation on what it means for beauty to persist across centuries, wholly indifferent to the shutter.
Trevi Fountain
The Trevi fountain, also known as Fontana di Trevi, is a 18th century fountain in Rome. It is the largest Baroque fountain in the world, and also one of the most famous fountains in the world. It was designed by Nicola Salvi and constructed in 1732–1762
The Colosseum
The Colosseum was dedicated in 80 CE by Titus in a ceremony that included 100 days of games, though it was later completed in 82 CE by Domitian by adding the uttermost story. The amphitheatre seated around 50,000 spectators that would watch gladiators fight.
Forum, fountain, and façade — Rome distilled through the lens.
