missed it!
Ventured out in the fog last night..I say last night it was only 7:30 but pitch black and foggy so felt like the middle of the night…anyway off I set to see what I could or couldn’t see and had an adventurous time stumbling around on the green trying so hard to get a shot…

sinister on the beach
Back on the streets yesterday for a quick fix of shooting total strangers and this is the shot that made me utter ‘yes’ under my breath. Not sure if this guy was with any of the kids but he walked along the beach and stopped just behind the donkeys. He didn’t speak to anyone just…

Holding on
High energy Colombian circus company ‘Circolombia’ amazed everyone this last February here in Blackpool and I was lucky enough to have a ringside seat. Aerialists Oscar Rojas and Soledad Gomez had the audience holding its breath as they coiled around a single rope and each other in a sexy carefully choreographed tangle of muscle and…

Dress Code
With the right advertising and in the right setting an everyday ordinary object such as a coat hanger can become an extraordinary piece of art. Found while out on the streets of London…how could I resist? In response to The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge: “(Extra)ordinary.”

The rusty seaside bench & the writing on the wall
I love chairs and seats especially old abandoned stacks of chairs, old metal seats rusted by the rain, garden benches, picnic chairs, deckchairs, benches, stools …anything I can sit on and or photograph. This rusting bench on Blackpool North Shore prom caught my eye and when I saw the shadow on the wall I heard…

Commissioned for one thing seeing something else
I wonder how many other photographers get commissioned to shoot something, get all prepared and set up, then while waiting the light suddenly changes and you get that one shot that makes the whole day worthwhile. This happened to me last week…while shooting a female hockey team for a calendar the junior team were training,…

The benefits of not sleeping
The benefits of having a bad night and not sleeping very well is that you get to go out in what feels like the middle of the night but is really 5:30 on a lovely Sunday morning..it was quite chilly and crisp this morning so in anticipation of the supermoon eclipse due tonight I dragged…

cut out and pasted
Manchester is always a pleasure to visit and this ‘retro televisions & filing cabinets’ cut out and paste urban art certainly caught my eye in the northern quarter last weekend. Love the little ornaments too!

she’s in love…the writing on the wall
more street from the Northern Quarter in Manchester…the city is fabulous for street photography, there’s an image everywhere and the writing on the wall in this image made me stop and look twice…a little bit sinister I think, have tried to find the author but had no luck.

beautiful disaster
I just had to get a shot of these fabulous legs while I was out ‘on the streets’ in Manchester..how could I resist, I did manage to make out the words ‘beautiful disaster’ tattooed just below her bottom and loved the guy sitting on the steps with the expression of not really knowing where to…
