Modelled on the clay army that guarded the first emperor of China, the group contained thirty-five fighters, a royal family, and two horses, occupying a small area outside Debenhams in Exchange Square.<\/p>\n<p>Primarily red coloured, but with blue and white figures interspersed, after sunset their bodies came alight, glowing brightly in the night. While I would have expected a barrier around the figures, it was possible to walk in and amongst them, getting up close to admire the handiwork.<\/p>\n<p>I found the warriors tricky to photograph, as the colours all glowed with different intensities. Also, the red-coloured heads did not allow light to shine through them, there was quite a contrast between bodies and heads. In the end, I focussed on photographing the heads in groupings of three and four, making use of the on-site lighting to capture them in detail.
