PHOTO: Parisian Patterns

On what was the biggest trek of my life, I wondered around Paris for two days absorbing the culture like a spongy magnet, found lots of geometric patterns and shapes. Here are a few of the images...

Mini-Vid: Chasing La Tour Eiffel

This is a very rough edit of a short video I am working on, needs a lot of tweaking but I though I would post this version before too much time passes while I work on it. Enjoy.

Strange Visitors

I've never been that keen on birdwatching, what with Bill Oddie doing his best to make it seem like the domain of jibbering egotist losers (no offence to the genuine bird lovers).
But today I was privileged enough to witness two birds larking about (guffaw) on the roof outside the studio.
I was shooting some new work and saw them through the window, and with a zoom action speedier than the eyeballs of any superhero I managed to get a couple of decent snaps.
I swear the brown one actually stopped and posed and the plumage on the second bird is so striking that I can see those colours working in a print, we shall see.

Essex: Sunrooms Graffiti

Thanks to Miss Ella Howard I have now got another skill to add to my CV, Balloon Animal Making.

This is a sausage dog with a very long tail.

I AM SO POOR: Part 1

This is how much I don't want to part ways with at least a fiver for a new eyeliner pencil.

Look at it, what used to read 'Black Magic' is now just -agic and every time I place the lid back on I fear it will be ironically swallowed by its own protecting device.
