More Magnum

Interesting link to share from Magnum... photographer David Hurn and poet John Fuller

Mistakes, like the ill-chosen furniture
Of the settled life, surround me now.
I am their willing prisoner.
They are my destiny, my vow:
The cigarette case, the divorce
The too-long lunch-time and the lunch-time horse.

But though it can't be guaranteed,
There is a crest to every slope,
Forgiveness in another's need
Of you, a need that gives you hope.
I'd take the bus to anywhere
To bring my grandson his old teddy-bear

collaborate on work where the poet interprets the photograph in a project called "Writing the Picture".

Music Lover





So I did force my dad to do a few test shots with new studio kit.

Snow Day 1 - very preliminary!







Once the snow began to thaw a little, I like the way it looked against the remaining Autumn colours.

Corporate Portraits






So... I have been standing people in front of various bushes and fauna of late for images for a corporate/public sector annual report! Very fun work though as I love doing these kinds of portraits and enjoy getting to spend a little time with different people who all have their own unique stories and personalities. Really lovely work if you can get it.
