Nothing special. Spring is finally here after a long, hard winter (I’m proper nesh these days) and I’ve just received a tonne of film this morning to shoot with. ‘Street photography’ is bloody hard, especially when you lose momentum, but I’m ready to dig myself back in. It’s almost a year now since I’ve given this work anywhere near enough attention. Time to channel my inner street urchin – if she still exists!
thank you for looking
Seeing as wordpress have made it so much easier to post photographs, here is a selection from the last few weeks or so. Nothing great…if you can’t devote hour upon hour to street photography then you can’t expect much back. Cheers!
robin van persie was almost in this photo. too love struck to click.

I jumped off a bus in the middle of nowhere to take this photograph a few years ago. I remember that it was in-between a hairdressers called ‘To Dye For’ and a Bridal shop called ‘Because I love you’. I rushed the photo because I had no idea where I was and I was sure a man with one eye and an exotic pet would emerge and chase me down the street. With all I’ve seen since then, the prospect of this doesn’t trouble me anymore. I’m going to see if I can re-take it this week. Though I hope they’re not giving hamsters away anymore.
The Art Of Tea, Didsbury. Great place for a pot of Earl Grey and well worth a trawl through the rambling book shop at the back.
I’ve spent the last 2 weeks scanning/editing/printing/submitting/stressing. Can’t wait to get back out with my camera!
