Hello again, you glorious and lovely people! :)

I've nearly finished story boarding a series of portraits, though I'm currently searching for a suitable model with the right look first. I'm thinking of taking a trip back to the modelling agency (it's been a few years!) but I'm holding off for now as I tidy up some other business I've got going on.

I recently did a shoot with executives from a company that - as usual - I can't publish anywhere, but I can only say that it was a lovely shoot with some genuinely nice people. The shots in particular were very pleasing in a corporate way, and I'd encourage people to try it (it's not a bad way to keep sharp, and a repeat customer's always worth finding).



Two friends of mine recently had their photography gear stolen the day before they were due to shoot a friend's wedding - that's got to be close to a living nightmare!

Please drop over and leave a few words of sympathy if you've been there or can imagine the pain; when it's a person's passion it has to hurt to lose it.

I was delighted to see last night that I've been given a Daily Deviation for One of my bubble photographs and thought that it might be useful to write a proper tutorial for bubble photography like I did for smoke photography.

I'll put the tutorial together in the next few days and upload it - in the meantime there's a lot of detail already in the comments for Dawn Over A Distant Planet:

Thanks to ombre-blanche for the DD nomination; I hope everyone who has an interest in the photo enjoys the coming tutorial!

Hello you sexy, sexy people!

I've used some of my landscape photos as a backdrop for a short and peaceful piano piece on YouTube; check it out!

:music: Into The Sun

Why it's you! What a lovely surprise. :)

I've been able to do a lot more with my different hobbies since getting my new computer, resulting in a surge of new material.

In addition to the Hair Shaving video that I mentioned in my last journal, I've uploaded two pieces: a very short (why, it's only a bit over 1 minute! What a bargain!) original piano piece, and a relaxing jazz piece, featuring jazz flute. No, seriously. :)

Getting equipment to record music really has proven to be a great choice. I'm having so much fun right now! :D



Painfully silent unfinished DevMeet video!




I hope you're doing well, and that something awesome happens for you soon.

Thanks, take care.

Why hello there! How very lovely to see you. :)

A friend of mine recently shaved his renowned long hair to raise money for charity, following personal tragedy and a recent diagnosis in the family.

Check out the first video I've put together properly:

Awesome YouTube video here

There's still time to give if you feel like it: Chris' charity page




I also found the old video that never got finished for a Brighton DevMeet in July 2010 - check it out and see if you recognise any names!

I've been writing and playing lots of music recently, and even invested in some recording equipment. It's looking like a musical summer!

Thanks, take care.
