victorian piano
esther needed some photos of this victorian upright piano for a school project
i enjoyed helping her gather the evidence
alarmed
i’ve just spotted the word armed in alarmed. that’s interesting.
a grey morning
this was the scene at tescos yesterday morning before the doors open. only grey cards (even the green one was grey), grey sky and wet grey carpark. classic british weather.
it got quite nice later on though.
carpet madness
carpet madness 50% off, then an extra 20% of carpets
it sure is a mad carpet world.
training shots
tony kindly leant me his flash so i could attempt something fancy when i did my photoshoot thing last saturday. here’s one of my test shots on a non-human head.
a slippery day
who’d have thunk the ice would have been slippery
i took the day of work yesterday to look after the girls as they had an inset day and jane was working. so we went ice skating in the morning then headed to a transport cafe for a greasy slippery fry up.
not the film
live on stage. not the film!
the watched snog
i went to see the Rodchenko exhibition on friday and was inspired to take this photo. it was only afterwards i noticed the girls with balloons on the top left.
guess the scene
can anyone guess what’s going on here ? you’ve got to guess the two parts to win. as a clue it was taken in central london. the blur is thanks to me experimenting with motion blur in preparation for a different shot. 20 pence in cash for the first correct answer.
please pay
i don’t think that’s her real hand
the polystyrene plant
i know what you are thinking, but it’s not. there’s no such thing as a sugar lump tree. it’s in fact a polystyrene plant. the one is in bloom, hence the poly blobs on the end of the spiky branches.
this sign would work well on my desk at work.
get dressed
this shop in bracknell, england is quite fantastic. all the mannequin’s were bold. except this one, which had covered up with a hat and sun glasses. she was a lot shorter than the other mannequins too …
dummy
whilst out on a photoshoot with jen and leo (oooh, look at me!) i was delighted to find this dummy
Leo had asked me earlier what kinds of things i usually photograph. And there waiting for us was one of my favourite subjects !
