Welcome to St. Decay

Written By Barnaby

Cornwall as it’s never been seen before, in glorious infrared. My new book Welcome to St. Decay celebrates Cornwall’s mining heritage through a lurid colour palette.

Taken over a six-month period walking and cycling around the Cornish countryside from St. Agnes to St. Austell, the book explores nature’s gradual but inevitable reclamation of the man made, focusing on abandoned engine houses where ivy climbs the chimneys and walls. For me, these engine houses are as grand and beautiful as any cathedral or castle and deserve to be celebrated.

All photos were taken by me with an infrared camera, and the book was designed by myself.
