Join Sarah as she revisits a couple of rural shows, three years after she published her ‘Showfield’ project on northern agricultural shows.
The aftermath of the pandemic, an outbreak of avian flu, and the soaring cost of fuel had affected the size of the shows, but Sarah still found those characters and moments that were such a big part of her first project.
We still have a couple of copies of the book that accompanied the project, so if you would like one, please follow the link below. First come first served!!

Technical:
As always, Sarah used a Leica M Monochrom with her 28mm Summicron-M ASPH lens for the new photographs.
All of her images were edited in Adobe Lightroom by Jeff using his SilverChrome profiles.

Very evocation images.
I love your photos—there are always things to notice; it’s like an I-Spy book
Fabulous :-))) Stopped the video in numerous spots.. there are many pictures within pictures to spot. Superb captures and observations. Cracking series of videos from you both.
Reminds me of the pictorial I did on a small town auction in Paxton, FL, for a small weekly newspaper back in 2007. Left the newspaper the next year as the economy tanked and the paper's revenues did the same. But it was a fun gig for the decade that is lasted.
Some shots a absolutely amazing, stunning, lovely…….❤️
Beautiful ,really stunning images. Fantastic eye for the scenes.
Great series of images, really captures the atmosphere of these shows. Well done!
Super captures! is that Martin Parr?
As ever the life of Mr and Mrs average out enjoying life so well captured by you. I also liked the sheep shearing set with the timely capture of sheep looking annoyed at been shed of their wool.
Fantastic captures. Great storytelling.
Another great capture of images Sarah, love the sheep man's reaction!
I wish I could shadow Sarah just to become a better human
Impressive. Your easy manner with people is obviously an essential ingredient contributing to a successful result – and I very much like the punchy quality of the images.
I look forward to seeing every single one of your videos. They are really inspiring. Thank you.
Marvellous. Such a wealth of character.
Great photographs as always.
You guys should come up to Edinburgh for the Royal Highland Show June next year, or the festivals in August.
