Amy again

Another of my photos from Glastonbury 2007.

Do listen here.

Amy Winehouse

2011-07-25T21:48:00.001+01:00

She was a favourite singer of mine. Such sad news of her death. I took this photograph of the video screen alongside the stage at Glastonbury in 2007. (Is it really four years ago!)

Squinty McGinty again

2011-02-21T17:41:00.001Z

Steve who I mentioned yesterday is very annoying. As well as being an amazing actor, he is also a good musician, photographer and artist! He is currently on a famous British soap - Coronation Street as the character Edie Windass. He has drawn portraits of many of the main characters of the soap. Limited edition prints of the portraits have been produced and can be seen and even purchased here. If you know any fans of Corrie - do pass it on!
A portrait I took of Steve a few years ago.

Squinty McGinty

2011-02-20T18:33:00.002Z

Squinty McGinty is just one of the amazing characters created by Steve Huison. Steve is a friend of mine and I occasionally do some photography and web design for him. Here is a photo of him as Squinty McGinty hosting a wonderful cabaret in aid of the Soteria Project which we also support. (Most of the photos there are also mine.)

Sorry I haven't had time to post recently

In the meantime do look at more of my photos here.

A hamlet nestled gently among the trees and mountains in the Ardeche, France.

2011-01-11T21:00:00.000Z

celebration

2011-01-04T19:11:00.000Z

As soon as I heard the bells of Big Ben on the TV at the New Year the sound of fireworks followed. This picture though was taken near home on "bonfire night" in November. Not quite as good as the firework celebrations in capital cities around the world.

2011-01-03T18:34:00.001Z

Taken on Christmas Day.

Happy New Year

2011-01-01T18:23:00.002Z

Happy New Year everyone. Here is a festive self portrait taken on Christmas Day. Sorry I've posted irregularly recently. Perhaps I feel a New Year's resolution coming on ...

while I'm away ...

Sorry I've not posted much recently. I will try to soon. In the meantime you can see a preview here.

frog

2010-07-21T17:16:00.000+01:00

Frog? Well that is how the English sometimes describe the French (we are the 'roast beef' to them!) The photo is down a street in Nice.

more of the Nice scaffolders

2010-07-20T17:11:00.000+01:00

Scaffolding in Nice.

scaffolding - in Nice

2010-07-19T19:06:00.002+01:00

It seems this is how scaffolders work in Nice. They were putting up some seating for a theatre event at the arts festival. Sorry about the blob in the middle. I've damaged the sensor on my old compact, probably through taking a sunset photo - but it is now replaced.

mural

2010-07-18T17:34:00.000+01:00

This mural was just across the road from the bus.

rootmaster

2010-07-17T17:28:00.000+01:00

The last time I was in London I took a photo of this routemaster bus now converted into a cafe!

concert

2010-07-16T17:54:00.000+01:00

But it had all been worthwhile a it was a great concert. This was one of the singers - Danay. Though there was lots of salsa and jazz too.

floor

2010-07-15T17:52:00.000+01:00

The floor as I was standing waiting. (You can guess I was getting really bored by now!)

hall

2010-07-14T18:48:00.002+01:00

My daughter booked me tickets for a concert at the Barbican last week as a birthday treat. (Thaks Ellie it was great.) This was taken as I stood waiting for the women to return from the loo!

after the bedpush

2010-07-12T17:23:00.000+01:00

Steve Huison - otherwise known as Eddie Windass in the popular UK soap Coronation Street and as Lomper in award winning film The Full Monty - after the bedpush to raise funds for the Soteria Network.

bedpush

2010-07-11T19:12:00.002+01:00

The start of a bedpush in support of the Soteria Network. If you haven't sposored or contributed yet then you can do so here. (Or just click on the link to Amazon there whenever you buy from them.)

There are some of my photos on the the Soteria website front page and more of the bedpush here.

more blossom

2010-06-08T17:11:00.000+01:00

I've forgotten its name!!! But it is one of my favoutite shrubs in the garden. The red stalks look good in the winter too.

2010-06-04T17:03:00.000+01:00

I should have photographed it earlier. It was already past its best.

2010-05-27T17:16:00.000+01:00

The apple blossom has gone already - a beautiful confetti on the lawn. It's hard to believe I took these photos only last week.

departure - 2

2010-05-18T17:19:00.001+01:00

This photograph is also from the TV when Gordon Brown went to see the Queen to resign. The sunset looked so like the retro picure they had put on the front of their election manifesto.

departure

2010-05-17T20:12:00.002+01:00

After Gordon Brown had been to see the Queen to resign as Prime Minister of the UK he went to the Labour Party offices to thank workers. I took this photo from the TV. My daughter Ellie is hidden right at the back just behind Sarah Brown and a couple of other young women. I am sure I can see a tear in her eye.
