lost and found

do you often wonder whatever happened to all those lost cats as seen on signs stuck on posts ? well, this one has been updated to let us know that it’s been found, which is great feedback.

however, this cat is still missing which is a shame.

although, now seeing these two signs (which were on the same street) side by side, i note that the one at the top is in a plastic bag and drawing pinned to a tree, whilst the one at the bottom was laminated and cable-tied to a post and offers a 100 pounds reward. but which one has been more successful ? anyway, i hope the other cat turns up too.

strobist seminar

i went on an off flash photography course yesterday by the chap who runs strobist. fantastic but exhausting stuff.

it was one of those courses that’s inspirational, but reveals how much i’ve got to learn and practice ! i tried a few things we’d learnt yesterday afternoon and got thoroughly depressed (and kezia got bored). so i stood in front of my flash instead and kezia took my photo

julian cope

i went to see julian cope last friday evening. bit weird. musically excellent as ever, but some of his rants seemed a little more aggressive than usual and the audience reaction was polarised leading to tension. still, a great night out, but a dreadful sneaky picture !
