The East Anglians will be featured as a major solo exhibition at the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts, Norwich, UK, 29 September - 13 December, 2009. The show will then tour to other venues.

My Friend Eric, a film made to accompany The East Anglians, will be shown during the exhibition.

Justin has also started working on a new project, And The Waters Will Come..., which explores the foreshore landscape of the Norfolk coastline, a place threatened by rising sea levels and coastal erosion.

The website Caught By The River features photographs from The Place That Roger Built along with a short text introduction. You can see the work here.

Photographs from the The Place That Roger Built featured in the Guardian Weekend magazine to illustrate extracts from Roger Deakin's new book, Notes From Walnut Tree Farm.

Photographs from The East Anglians project feature in the Summer 2008 Granta magazine, issue 102: The New Nature Writing. My photographs accompany an essay by the landscape writer Robert Macfarlane. Robert spent time with me in the field "ghost-hunting in the Fens" visiting the old-time agrarian farmers and walking the landscape of their world.

Other contributors to the issue include essays by Jonathan Raban, Matthew Power, Richard Mabey, Benjamin Kunkel; a photo essay by Donovan Wylie, and a graphic story by David Heatley. And much more.

Granta 102 should be in good book shops by 15 July in the UK, and around the 15 August in the USA and Canada. You can read Robert Macfarlane's essay here. And see a slide show of my photographs here.
