Who Said?
Because I created this collage on a computer, and made this picture by simply photographing the screen, it has never had much fidelity. I have used Lightroom to attempt an injection of contrast and clarity, not altogether successfully I'm afraid. So I posted it in ipernity afresh just to use picmonkey on the image, because I have discovered that what one photo processing program cannot do, another one sometimes can. And although it is not perfect - nowhere near - it nonetheless is an improvement.

The collage comprises clipped newspaper articles and advertisements; items found in old magazines (some very old indeed); an old knitting pattern cover; a detail from the cover of a book published by university undergraduates in the early 1970s; an old family photograph (but I don't know who they are/were); a detail from a letterpress printing project by Walter Partridge of the Perdix Press; stuff noticed on the internet; and even an original photograph taken on a day out.

Photographed with a Nikon D700 and a 55mm Micro-Nikkor f/3.5 AI lens direct from the computer screen.

I think the low-fi is essential here, adds to its faded pop art Sixties aesthetic.
Jade Yang. I’m in love.

There's low-fi and there's crap. Perceptions vary.
As regards the pulchritudinous Jade Yang, I volunteer entirely free of charge or obligation the address of the photographer's website where the photograph appears under the 'tear sheets' tab. The photograph was taken on 12 June 2014 and appeared in the following day's 'Independent". Jade Yang was a sales assistant in David Zwirner's London gallery at the time of an exhibition which included Bridget Riley's 'Late Morning Horizontal'.
It is a fabulous photograph of the painting and the dress worn by Jade Yang, presented at an engaging angle.
And so: the photographer was Susannah Ireland. Her website is at www.susannahireland.com/tearsheets
