The images in this book are such a departure from her usual black and white landscapes that no one wanted to publish it, which is why it was done privately, however I love the images. This is the only one I could find on-line which links to an interview with Fay for BBC's Woman's Hour, here.
It is these images, many of which which may be described as abstract which have attracted me and inspired me in making her my choice as my chosen subject and I hope to make last assignment in the style of these colour photographs.

Good luck with your final assingment, I'm sure your photos will be very interesting!
I have also chosen Fay to do my essay on. I have enjoyed her Land trilogy and will probably focus my attentions on the final of those books, The Edge of the Land, so I will be doing the black and white stuff. I liked some of her Bradford images, e.g. Car Wash, but Glassworks didn't really do it for me, however I think its great that you are looking at that later work as she seemed annoyed to be type cast as black and white only.
