f1.8 play

2008-09-20T03:34:00.003+01:00

finaly after nearly 2 weeks got abit of time off work.
i managed to shoot a 36 roll of HP5+ off when i was walking the dog.
the lighting was low, so i thought id just mess around at f1.8.

I developed it in Rodinal using a 1hour stand. just experimenting, im still not likeing the huge grain thats apearing on the HP5+, i have some XTOL which i think im gona start messing around with.

at low res 500pix the rodinal and the low f stop really make the images seam old. film speeds were alot slower and fine grain film wasn't really around.

I devided to produce a lill series, which was inspired by one of my favorite films
"me you and everyone we know"

Me & You | You & Me

The changes of summer

2008-09-13T00:08:00.006+01:00

Its been months since I bothered to post but I have still been shooting in between work, on some days off.

This summer has been ... shall we say difficult, some big changes happened in my life. Mainly the passing away of my grandma which has been so tragic to me and my whole family. My grandma was an amazing woman, I miss her so much but she will always be with me in my heart.

R.I.P Grandma

I dont have many photographs of her, but this one of my favourites, taken last summer with my Polaroid One camera on 600 film.

My summer began with my exhibion, which was the closing of my student life. Attaining a 2:1 degree in Multimedia Design whic I am so pleased about considering how messed up my head was around the end of the summester. I started to use work as a way of escaping reality and what was going on around me towards the last few weeks of the summester.

Here are some shots taken at my exhibition at the uni's new media arts building.

shock horror, street, on digital - in colour, was bored.

I lived in leeds on my own for 3 weeks after the exhibition, it gave me a real insight how life was going to be, and I loved it. My room was like a mini studio, but I had little motivation to shoot as I had just finished uni and the passing of my grandma, I just wanted to relax.

I bounced at the opportunity to shoot again, when I was invited to a time attack race day my my best mate. The day was amazing, even if the weather wasn't, getting to witness, roger clark smash a record with his 800HP scooby was an amazing sight, and here are some shots to prove the days worth. I really loved the panning practice too.

At the event we were also able to see the new nissan GTR35 which was worth the trip alone. very, very sexy car!

Evo with FM2 on HP5+ in TMax (fucked up on the spool=scrached to hell!)

where ever I am, I like to shoot street. This is a family life in the pits.

being a total noob i left my FM2 in bradford, lucky i have a reliable friend who was able to ship it back to me the following week... bound2

Before i moved i made a frame of most of the stuff i owned all packed up in boxed, doesn't look like too much but its all i own.afew books and some screens by the looks of things.

After this I was working alot more so I never shot much, afew rolls of HP5+. Half way into the summer I has a shit time, just realising some aspects of life were never going to work out. I went out on a night with my friend and shot photos while he played guitar to me. I felt better. Here are some of the shots I made.

Here is afew shots off a roll i developed last month. afew street here :)
taken with the FM2 on the 50mm - HP5+ 400 in TMax

I got a tree frog!!!!
not a real one tho :(
but my perants got me it in london, hes awsome!

Was asked to shoot afew frames of my mates audio A3, i never got many good shots, wasn't feeling it that night but these 2 i enjoyed, which i took my LC-A out with me that night. I loved how the sunset lighting made these silver rims, come out bronze!

I ran out of my beloved TMax, as I got some Rodinal, and as of yet i have been unhappy with the results but its been fun experimenting. again had problems getting the HP5+ onto the spool (only with film bought at local picturesk- so im abit weary now). The results are really experimental, but i have learnt alot from my mistakes.
These were developed on 1-50 concetration Rodinal @ 11mins i think. agitating every min for 5.

Recently I went to scarbough to shoot with afew of my cameras, im still waiting back on the results of some. Had an amazing time, met an awsome person, its so good to be able to shoot with someone :)

I also got to play with a 10-20mm for the first time, so kool i want i want.Here are afew shots from that evening.afew street shot in colour-digital :0

OK so i loved scarbough so much i went back, shot some more street on my FM2 this time, and afew digital heres some more from that night.

Its a shame I never have time to blog because there is so much to say, each shot has a little story i could say about it. This place was awsome, it reminded me of being somewhere eastern.

which lead to this concept shot being taken... very surreal! - not my style but i loves it.

this shot reminded me of my previous photos titled "seaside painter" where a man was painting the whitby sandsend. this is the same sorta thing but in scarbough, id love to make a series and travel around the UK to seaside places and shoot ppl looking out!

Another and final shot was of this squirel that came right up to us, and i managed to get this capture. Was alittle pissed off with the Rodinal grain and blowed out highlights, but the development was a 1hour stand test - i know next time ... less adutation !

i say this every time but i will try to keep this updated, i got a batch of polaroid 600 film and put that into the SX-70 i got for my uni project...

(runs off to shoot the polaroid - as scanner is crap)
ill end with a polaroid - seeing as i started with one.

This is the frame we made, and i really loves it! maybe the crops abit :S but i like the colours.

So i hope to shoot some more polaroid before we loose this amazing film forever :"(

おやすみなさい　- oyasuminasai (goodnight)

street shots in scarbough

2008-06-13T00:43:00.002+01:00

I have just finished up with my uni work was a crazy last two weeks. I got a chance to do photography, but it felt forced almost. So this last week I managed to go through about 3 rolls of HP5+ just as I went on with life with my camera at my side. Im started to get alittle more used to TMax Dev, im currently adgetating for 5 seconds every minutate for 6:30 mins, and for 30 seconds at the beginning,so i have 5 cycles in a dev.

I have some new dev in mind to begain experimenting but lack of money is anoying, esp as my house mate is moving out i will need to buy afew things before i can start dev myself again.

Here are some shots from the last week then.

this is the my backdoor :)

Hudderfield Uni Building is very sexy!

time to waste - in a student area [to true]

As soon as i saw the darkness at the train station underpass, i set up the camera knowing i would be lucky to capture anything of detail... so i went for atmospheric shot

this is my fav shot off the whole 3 rolls

BAD KITTIEEE 1+2

(The cheek to not only stand on my macbook but to eat all my icecream too pfffff!)

Chris Weeks would hate me for saying this!
but...
i like the 'bokeh' effect in this shot

pwity shot of the field infront of my house, had a little vignetting so i pulled this abit, im naughty but it looked nicer :P

wow its been a while! MEGA UPDATE

2008-05-25T14:08:00.002+01:00

I aint posted for ages, not that I have been to busy, well not since last week anyway, just lives abit low these days. I can never be motivated to do a great deal unless my ass is on the line. Like now.

I have a week pritty much to finish off my work for my final year. There is a lot to be getting on with, but I feel I can get it done in time. Lists help me out. I have been reading about memory again, as my research for my work came to a close i stopped but now im trying to learn, just as something which can help me in life. within the next week I hope to apply some memory techniques which will aid my prentation on the 2nd june, my last day at uni (accept for the exhibition)

As my work involved street, I have lots to show on the blog, must be a good 100 shots to share... so here goes.

At easter i woke up at 6am (after going to bed at 3am LOL) and I walked about 2 miles to the beach to shoot these shots, it was a new experiance for me, and im rubbish at landscapes but these are afew that came out ok-ish. I need to practice alot more, a 10mm lens wouldn't go a miss either ^_^

did a car shoot with a mate on the way back from home

did a memory photoshoot for my final year back at the beginning just before christmas time and one of the rolls I shot was HP5+ and i forgot about it so when I developed the unkown roll i was pleased to remember this shoot.

I shot around between christmas and easter and I saw the lighting in this underground car park in huddersfield, I managed to get 2 shots fired before some guy came over and told me to leave, not being a dick, i left :)

I liked this shot of my mum and sister in lidel, they looks quite similar with their hair and coats, I told my mum the shot was an arty contrast between the old and the new, this resulted in a smack HAHA.

I remember taking this when I was waiting for someone at leeds station, I waitied ages to get this roll developed, was quite pleased with this show shutter effect.

OK here is a recently new roll of HP5+ 400 some of these shots have been used in my project at university.

most people wont get this, if you do tho haha ;)

bumped into ash in whitby with my mate, she asked for photo taken so i did :)

On the way back from whitby from my birthday we stopped of at sutton-bank (i think), just went for a wander around and I had the FM2 with me. it was foggy so you get this white graduation down the landscape, but what u gona do.

theres abit of street in me even in the countryside :P

when we went for a walk around whitby I manged to get afew intresting frames, mainly this frame of a man shooting his kid. its a shame i mest up this roll when developing :(

got afew digital photographs now, taken from a recent trip the lake district.
this frame was a 30sec exposure at about f5.6, reminds me of a painting the way the water has been capture.was silly dark tho.

this has been photoshoped slightly due to the huge differances in lighting, as the front was lit with a phone light, the wb contrasted to much. we waited for cars to pass and flood the side of the car with there headlights, the backlighting was from a nearby house and as i said the front was light with a phonelight, impervisation or what! i wish i had some lighting sometimes tho :(

this frame was taken not much longer after in leeds on a late night shoot. see if you can work this one out

ok some more street for you

this is my last roll i shot, abit too dark, i think this was a developing issue and not a exposure issue, nevermind.

totaly cliché shot, you cant really see but the guy in the middle of the frame was a middle aged business man perving on all the ladies.

shadows look abit too dark on flickr, seamed fine on the mac mehh. this guy looked at me just before i took this, i was abit slow, or he looked away really fast, he had other things on his mind, the police had just been shouted over and he then turned to look at the man who he was trying to get arrested.

so the policed arrived,
and i snapped the shutter again, but they never noticed
shame about the dark shadows, looks really underexposed >.<

quite afew of these are from the hip, and im less than an amature so go easy, dont judge to harshly - street photography is alot harder than it looks, and i have deep respect for those who shoot street.

love to take photos, of people taking photos, the bald guy was framing the woman and the man, she had some sorta champaine glass, not sure what the celebration was. (gay chemicals on the bottom right haha)

i know this would be underexposed to shit before i pressed the shutter, no time to setip so i shot it anyway, out of focus and bad exposure with bad composition but theres still something i like alittle about this frame

i sware the mafia are watching me,paranoid as fuck. theres another old shot i took in whitby of ricky, and theres a mafia in the background just like this fella. awww busted btw, he was looking right at me when I released the shutter, what a noobie!

Donnington Meet and more Fish Eye

2007-12-11T00:50:00.000Z

I actualy really like this shot of the ek9, enjoy the reflection of the sky shot on my FM2 with some crappy jessops 200.

I think i captured this portrature photo well, I got his happy personality and if you look around the frame it is full of starlets which he loves.

hehe you cant take me anywhere withought tryin street shots!

These were taken with the D70 in the drive back, bnw has been my desktop since then, just changed it today.

I found this hidden away with some shots from last summer, kinda liked the colours funny how you attitued to an images changes over time.

Found this too taken in scarbough, hate the fucking slope, taken with huge and loud d70 not street styling tall.

This was taken with the LC-A on a way to the HIFH gig, i liked it

more fish eye!

You know why I LOVE black and white, its because u'll never know im ginger, shit i just told you ah well fuck it.

Last shot was taken by my good friend John check out his work here
http://www.flickr.com/photos/e3ekiel/

do you want to be a fish ?

2007-11-04T14:47:00.000Z

wow since my last post i have got afew more cameras, one is the fish eye 2 lomo and also for my disertation (excuse to get one) i invested in the first lomo camera the LC-A.

I fuckin love the LC-A with a passion its an amazing little camera, so compact and just nice to handle. Its also a street beast, its only injury being its loudish shutter.

also been developing with colour c-41,shot my first frame on med format and learnt to scan.
also have a nikon £500 coolscan waitin to arrive.

i also let my friends shoot the fish eye
rickys lovely plane shot

ricky shooting me at the café

ok heres the LC-A <3

a project children did explaining there family and where they are from @ a leeds gallery

my bed sucks even more than ever now

jon at eastern resturant

raged sister in the morning haha

took afew frame of buildings with the lc-a, skys are soo kool!

huddersfield uni's new building

amazing lighting in leeds station here, the whole awsomeness of the LC-A is that its in my pocket pritty much all the time,
even when im nekid
like robocop
...
mofo

platform 16a

ok heres my street that i took with the lc-a, some were developed in c-41 but i converted to black and white, cos bnw just rawks and everyone knows it.

the market was fun to shoot but the lightins kinda harsh for the cute f2.8 mintar lens

chinesse marketo

ok some real street now

ok and these are my favorites of the rolls

although is it blured and it WASN'T meant to be i really enjoy the sames and atmosphere it gives.it helps me remember that day more seeing the image blured. its strange how photos do that, and all these digital whores golden goals. pin sharp images.

fuck that shit,

who needs pin sharp

remember atmopsheres

remember emotions

remember shapes and colours

the empty seat which i wish was filled, at the eastern resturant

solitued

this is my favorite street shot to date.

fuck pin sharp

hopefully sort out some bnw developing and soon have my scanner whooop
peace,
cheers to all who read

santa pod 2007

2007-10-09T19:40:00.000+01:00

aint posted any photos for ages but iv been working fulltime and since uni started iv been busy.

this weekend tho was a great time to take some shot.I lent pro's (house mates) 70-200mm nikkor lens for the trip and i did a little photo shoot the night before

woke up at 5:45. which is usually the time if be going to bed. it was easy to sleep tho since i only had 3 hours the nite before and a huge drinkin session made me feel tired.

took me 2 hours and a large coffee to wake the fuk up tho

ok so we got there and parked at the starlet stand. first frame a shot was this eg6 with a tidy b18 engine plant. love hondas, knew it was going to be a fun day.

G35 skyline

nice yharis ya god dam pra-eest, probs as slow as a prest too, but looks count for alot

GC8 god i love this car.pink and graphit, might have to steal that colour combo for uni

such a nooby sticker but ill get one for the ef9, just fort buzz

buddy club DC5, fucking awsome car. owner must have +5inchs

GTTurbo stand shot from the drift stand.

EG6 i think that had a b18engine when i went past it was open. owner was jap ^_^ looked tidy.loved the spoon stickers on the side pannels

ok this made the show for me seeing a ef8 which was so tidy made me happy.if my car is ever this nice and tidy ill be a happy bunny. crx with b18 and spoon mods.fukin lovly machine

here are some side shots.

with pro's lens i was able to take some amazing shots of the jet car.which i am truly happy with. with that accelleration and my pan, i managed to get a nice sharp image at 1/800th with the background nicly burled.

:) :) ef9 on the strip = slow ass mother fukers even with the intgra engines :(
problem was gettin the power down and the revs dropping too low for them to get pace. once they hit 3rd they were off, but most of the cars were able get the power down and then ef cant catch. i noticed this with the ek's and ep's as well. not so much ep3 tho they seamed to launch nice enough, and the supercharded ep3's in the pro fwd class were FAST. i actualy saw a eg6 which pushed 11 seconds tho, that fuker was evil, dunno how it did it,could have been a awd conversion?
i think most of them never had the cam upgrades and they wont reving high enough to launch.it gave me a change to think of some tuning ideas for ef9. one was supercharge to give it a torque at lower revs to keep its launch decent. although i civic in a stright line is pointless anyway, most are tuned for curves and handling, light as fuk. i noticed that the starlets and the colt's sucked ass on the strip too, but i think this comes down to the fact that most people tune them for handling, and the driver enjoy driving them on the roads. although its nice to see ur time.

bla bla bla enough of my ideas back to photos

ok i saved the drift shots till last. this is what i enjoyed the most this year as well as checking out all the nice cars.iv fallen in love with s14 shape now after seeing it drift. the arena was about 4x bigger than last year too so there was more speed which made it alot more entertaining.

i loved this s13, i think after seeing the silvias drift iv fallen in love with them

nice to see a chaser markII but shame the driver sucked!think me and ricky should have had a go instead ;)

this was a nice pan shot, sharp car, blurred bg

i thought the skylines were pritty crap at dori too. s1x ftw's

can u tell which was my fav car? bit the s14 nope nope nope

ok i edited this shot in photoshop cos it was the best id taken at the dori arena,very impressive drift and the smoke looks amazing - bet the driver was havin so much fun.

last shot is atmosphere
cant end the post withought a black and white. so here goes...

just gota fm2 and a fisheye2 and im bidding on a LC-A so hopefuly more photos very soon if i can sort out the developing and scanning.

peace out everyone who reads
love you all

i haven't updated my blog in a while, because i have nothing interesting to say or share.

accept 2 or 3 weeks ago when a very young girl came to the restaurant.

Her mother was so indecisive, and her father knew exactly what he wanted. It was attraction of opposites for sure.

whilst they were eating she got up and walked over to the restaurant window and started to speak, smooth quite french words. with her hand gently resting upon the glass.

it was amazing.

you would never see that in england.

you'd get some brat bashing the glass and making lots of noise, without a care in the world about what was outside.

the view is amazing from the window at dusk.

and to see this little girl with so much appreciation for it was special.

i will always remember that

forever

ok heres like a months worth of photos. considering i get 1 day off a week from work and i have other things to do besides take photos on that day off i think its not to bad

heres afew from jacks house party

enough of that now here the rest of the bollax i shot

i never actually realized id taken this frame, i took it from around my neck, never looked through the viewfinder i just set it up and shot. I pretty much got the exposure how i wonted it. i found this the other day. that man was feeding my dog bread. it was strange.

heres afew frames of street photography some new, some are old that i found the other night.

ok i will try keep this more updated i say that everytime but bahh

i want to go to santa pod jap fest this month so much get a update thats actually not a month away. expect some wicked car shots. probs wont happen tho with worth atm.
also going to flamingo land soon maybe ... anyways theres a zoo there so i can take my 1st animal shots that aint my fukin cat or dog, should be interesting anyways.
less than a month and ill have my flat in leeds cant wait to start sortin that out.

ok peace x

2007-03-26T22:03:00.000+01:00

just fixed the fukin PC sall good now tho, nice and speedy.although it crazyed on me when i was in the lightroom ffs.
anyway cba to write much. i made myself a mini assignment sort thing.
can only shoot 70mm and a focal length of 0.32cm and also ISO 400. which left the f.stop and SS at my disposal for exposures.
anyways heres what i came up with tonight in about an hour while i was walking the dog.

i like this, lill rock all isolated surrounded by the norm. dull gray boring rocks.

love the cobweb in this

and here are my last 2 fav shots
i can totaly imagine this as a font page of flicker.

this was my only BnW conversion, i wanted to play with colours, alot of colours i shot were natural so i never really felt the need to convert to BnW. i like natural yellows and browns :D anyways its kinda contrasty but i was focusing more on pattern than the perfect exposure, but whatever my style is like this anyway

watched city of god last night, wicked film
hehe my sister was so baked last night, was funny dont think i seen her like that before, she'll have a killer hangover today.
oh yeh i got a pay rise and a promise of a nice phat bonus in september. i gota look after the restaurant where i work. train the staff sort the bar ordering, keep it clean, and just do a nice job of running it. gona be a fun season.

ohh shite just had to edit this i found 3 more which i never posted on flickr. ne way here they are.

this one shit reminded me of summut out of lord of the rings, like deep reds on the black background

BUBBLES WHOOOP - dont ask, and its not what u think...

peace and love

anyway i herd that it was canceled due to alot of people disagreeing, thank god.

i aint been drunk for ages now it crazy, well accept on saturday and the week before that.im too skinnnt :(
soon the season will pick up at work and i should be earning more money to get away from shitby. the plan is to slowly move stuff into the flat in june.
like every 2 weeks get my ass over there with some of my things.

should be kool week on sat ricks blastin over in the GT so can chill with my bro in whitby for a change.we gota photo shoot planned.
well depending on the sunset really.

oldie mate jon is over this weekend some someone else who can do some photos with too.should be fun.might be in scarbough to in monday which is the day hes over.
so that might go to pot.

off to york soon too see the sis and her sexy ass mates its been been planned for ages!!! but never ever get weekends off.
also wont to go to sheffield sometime too well see tho.

photo time!
i found this the other day its funni.

did alittle photoshoot like maybe around 20th?? i forget now anyway did some kool fashion modeling shots. just messing around but got some ideas.
soon i will do a propper shoot with a nice backdrop and set up some propper lighting. cant wait to get the studio set up in the basement in leeds.

speaking of fashion i made this!!!!! pritty nooby but yer i get bored on my days off LOL.

some crazy nice strong sun was hittin my bed where my cat was chillin so had to have a play with the camera.this is what i came up with.

hehe it snowed one nice so i grabbed the tripod and ran out in it.was well good!1st one is dedicated to cheese girl last one is dedicated to stace cos she'd have gotten jellous ;)

i sorted out my deviant gal, still need to sort my HUGE friends list tho its need putting into differant groups but its too big i cant be arsed when i look at it.
this is an edit i decided to do from a shot i took 2 octobers ago! i went for a vinage feel. just a mess around really.

been having to take the dog out in the dark so i took a tripod out with me, and i made some nice night shots, i think ill be doing this with jon on sun nite.so he can have a go,
these are the resutls.

was in brad on monday and crused to huddersfield for a photoshoot in the underground car park.totaly pleased with the results on this one.i edited them abit in photoshop but the RAW files still look good.
these are 2 i took. also i was playing around with an old photo of scarlet and i edited to make it look like it was taken in the late 70's which i think has a nice feel to it.i dunno its not the best
looking photo but to me it has a certain character which i love, even if it is digital it does block out that feeling.
Project EP82 blog can be found on my links on this blog. please spend time to check it out. there is some wonderful photography from car shows over there.

ok thats it for now but in the next 2 weeks i should have alot more shots its just if i have the time to type it all out and get it uploaded
peace n shit for now
love you all

bristol ... Zoo ....Zoo

2007-01-19T20:49:00.000Z

finished work got a call,
"i got the d80"
thats it im off to leeds.
some dude who i might be living with next year, pro has a studio light.
so we were gona do some portrature.
fukin waited in scarborough for 2 hours for a fukin train.
sunday sucks for travel.
got to check out area where i probs be movin to in sept was kool.
never really got chance to take that many photos really.
but then again i guess i was expecting to do another shoot.

just happened that the light was really strong on this side of his face. i had my f stop too high.

emo jon LOL

never caught this dudes name, was a chilla tho,pilled up or summut?
shadows are too blue in this shot but its ok.

i did this edit, cos the original was way too warm, its kool photoshop can edit it easyily but its bad practice for film.
this was styalized to my taste, lots of colour balance changeds.was commented that it was simitar to HL2, with the textures and close up crop style.

i think this was my fav fame of the day, i think its just got decent lighting, some nice textures,medioca crop and some emotion to it.
i warmed it up with alittle gray duo tone,just to give it a more warm felling - i think it sorta makes u closer to the person in the frame.

but mate rang, and seeing as tho jon was sleepy and had uni the next day.
thought i might spend some time with rick while i was around the area.
eneded up on a stupid mission driving down to bristol
set off at 8pm got there for just after 12pm
then was away buy 1:30 and back home for 5:30ish
total mish that one
was dark and was in a car traveling 80mph+ with a slow f3.5lens so i went for some abstract shots. long shutters-bluring that sorta stuff.

motoway lights.just was lookin at light relationships - some timing was needed for this, not all blind luck :P . had to wait for the turcks to line up and go past

this was abit mad, held the d70 tight onto the car and set the shutter open for 4 secs.gets this warpin effect

random shapes with an LED light

rain on the windshield helpped to fragment the colours or a trucks break lights and some side indicator as we drove past. gave this electric zipping effect.

whilst the shutter was open i adjusted the focus so that the light fuzzed, then when it sharped it overlapped and gave this hard edge to a soft glow, wuite a pleasing effect

same effect as before but alot closer to the light and alot more movement of the camera when in sharp focus, even for a brief time of sharp focus.

was gona go see a band in nottingham but cant now as 1/2 term and needed for work.
hopeful my sis got some tickets to see frank turner
for 11th
missed enter shikari, they were playin tonight in boro
gig tomorrow night - although might not go yet.
flat in leeds almost sorted (cheers jon)
bond needs paying
and summer rent is only £100 which is awsome considering im in whitby over the some.
then i can leave this shite whole and have so much more freedom and fun!

another drunken weekend

2006-11-22T22:18:00.000Z

about a month ago went to fallin foss with my sis, had to climb down a wet cliff to get down here to the bottom, yer i slipped, yeh i shat myself.worth it tho when i got to the bottom

love this seasons colour and those mold greens, again taken last month

i got way to drunk this weekend, friday was silly, went to gig with dave,cas and jaz but was meant to meet jack and perv.apperantly i got too drunk to meet jack, got a pizza and eneded up walkin home through the fields, probs at like 2am.had work at 10am so i was feelin it bad.wicked sick headache.then i went out with my sister and jack cos i never got to see them on fri night.was crap so we went for a drive and a smoke.

last month i never would have thought id be sat in a car with my sister getting stoned.its crazy how times change, but yer was good fun, so thats gona happen again + she got to catch up with jack which i think she liked.

went to newcastle on the sunday, was kool.got fukin wasted again like i did on friday,although only temp memory loss this time haha.managed to go into the centre and get some shots.i was so shocked by how many good looking people are around up there.it really does take the piss! man we all gota move up there!

i ate to much junk food up there and spent stupid money which i dont really have!

i love the shapes in this piece of art, outside the cinema in newcastle

one of my fav photographers chris weeks took a wicked shot of a rack of sunglasses, this is my style, shoes. thats how we roll chris

esculator near pizza hut, glass can create some lovely effects to shoot. there were xmas lights to the right of the frame which are being captured in the glass,nothin i could really do about that hidous pizza hut sign tho

walked past this building and it had just been cleaned, well infact they were just finishing it, i had to stop to shoot it, the lighing was so nice.i love the colours, and the tones so i did a conversion in photoshop for this one, ISO was 1600 i think, wish i could have shot it smaller but sometimes it just isn't practical to carry a tri/mono-pod around with u everywhere u go.

i just love the look on jacks face,i dont think he was really tired,maybe pissed off with me vibing him out,id just dragged him around the town and went shopping.maybe i was abit too much of a woman.wkd t-shirt he had on too

haha this one is for sian,skin print, on etnies, can u get any more sexual. well yeh you could.ithink they should make sleep when your dead, with skin print.
how-fuking-nice. humm i should be a shoe designer no?

sometimes i wish i had a fuking MP.but i just have to settle for my digtal.we cant all be photowhores on a £100pw job, im afraid.this is what my D70 saw, along with some photoshoping around the couple and some of the light.man i love this place,the waitress was pritty hot,food was fucking amazing-cant beat mexican! and just the atmosphere was chillin.

subways are always fun to shoot.much like an abandoned mantion or factory.its the street,but it aint street photography.this shot wasn't shot, by thinking and then acting, in the sence of "street photography".i just love subway lighting, and textures.

ok this shot was a street, dont care what anyone else thinks, fuk em. so what it was digital, he never saw me, i as a photography was not "IN" the picture.sorry maybe its not street if its not film.ill make a new genera called wonabe street, into which all digital can go. this was taken at 8pm @1600 iso probs 1/5th.
in london theres alot of streets like this, around the soho area, little side streets from which business spurt.and what place to have a café with seating area. where i can sit beside the rats, and decaying rubish left out on the back street.this man never seamed to care tho,as long as he can sit, relax.maybe have a smoke and a drink- he was happy.

no not sleeping,it was only about 8:30pm on the way back home, strange how a mobile phone could make someone look like this, i just liked it tho.now that i have told u that he wasn't thinking, look at the frame again... bet it dosn't seam as good, or as "street" as before, the fact that i know this person is irelevent.

thats my ramblings for now.
peace out x

2006-10-27T16:16:00.000+01:00

fuk me! i so didn't expect to see what was there.after tailing some n00b boy racer in a shitty saxo or whatever, we got into this industrial car park and there was litreally 100's people stood around some nice cars. subs banging people talking, walkign around taking pics,showing of their cars.

the atmostphere was so good,engines reving, BOV's, subs banging, lots of flashing lights and differant types of people. was please to see ONE colt, even tho it was abit shedy.and i saw a cyborg ZR in black, fuk i wonted it so bad.

chillin and taking all the shots for fun and project-ep82 blogg.rick chilled with his bro si and some other starlet owners sharing performance info.some nice looking starlets there.
it was time to head off home to sleep for afew hours before getting up and meeting gee in hudders. i wanted to skate but driving back went abit pair and we got back later than planned.

ended up getting not a wink of sleep so I was fukt on the drive over to pod. was litrally impossiable to keep my eyes open so i ended up getting about an hours kip.
we ended up in pod at around 9:30 i think. was fukin imence.

everywhere u looked u saw a JDM car which was awsome. every so often ud see some shitty ford, or french car and think WTF are these doing here at a JAP SHOW you know?
so many skylines, evo's and imprezas. was daft.

i dont know where to start? to tell you what it was like or what we did.
i only took my D70 around with which i regreat now, cos i have no videos accept 1 on my phone.no 35mm :( gutted. next time tho ill carry all 4 cameras around with me.
foooood, thats the first thing needed, so once that was sorted we took a wonder around to see where everything was, got back to the front of the strip just in time to watch round 1.

fuk me norris designs evo was rippin it out on the strip, was impressive to see in for real, after seeing it in the vids and hearing abour it. intercooler was so big!. i got a nice shot of it too.
dori dori was pritty fun to watch. gets boring tho seeing the guys doing same old shit. but when then show was on man that was awsome. we were stood in such a gag place tho.

i aint really a big fan of a lung full or tyer smoke tho, even the hardened weed smoker would have found it anoying. we saw the dori dori right at the end of the day tho.
we watched alot of the stip and saw all the show cars, and the pro draggers.
they also had the jet car run twice, 1st time we watched it from the start and it was crazy, video can be seen at the end section here http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=6499654469727910140

ricks mate scot dropped the camera 1/2 through the run, errr so what like after 3 seconds!?!!! was so funny i never even knew until i was sent the video. all u see is the sky, must have shat it.
was loud as fuk tho, never seen anything like it. ran the strip in 6.2 seconds!

was at the end of the strip and i herd it coming so i fired up the old D70 and pan shot. check the shot on the LCD, FOOK me i managed to get it.
f/3.2 2500/sec 18mm ISO400 - car was doing 258MPH and i managed to get it opening its chute at the end of the 1/4 mile. do the math of the distance in a 18mm frame and how fast it was going. yeh im one lucky fuker me thinks.
was so good.

shit there was pole dancers too. nothing special tho. loads of geeks or fat men standing around in a tent looking at one dumb blonde. not my sorta thing tbh, although i repect the girls for the style and effort they put in.

man there was a phat evo with stupid amounts of subs and amps, fukin rippin out some pendulum, crazy bass, felt awsome stood next to it.i need to go to valve tho ffs. nothin will beat that experience. love the ralli // art shift sticker in that evo tho,something to consider in colt.
ok enough chatting shit now. the photos will say the rest man
fukin awsome weekend, ened up gettin in about 12 on sunday night.

embarssing night

2006-09-23T17:11:00.000+01:00

ok so i went for a curry with the dudes from work
hummm the meal was,,,, OK? ... i guess, after waiting for 1 hour for the main course.

fuck it lets get wasted.so i did.... alittle too much tho.last thing i remember was kaining 1/3rd bottle of wine.i was ok as well before that just felt drunk, nothing wasted.then i had total blackout.

apparently i was lowriding to low, and my pants fell down, and i was too wasted to even pick them up, so i got escorted outside and had them pulled up for me, infront of a pig car.
FUCK so embarssing

my mate dave asked me to go watch forfathers practice, so we took our slrs, need to sort through, alot of shite shots.

this was so funny tho

jordan Nikon Eye

rosie flashing us for fun

just mates these 2 yeh? looks hot tho, i raged when jordan missed this, but they did it again for us.

just been messing around with shadow and hightlight in PS, this was white washed top but i managed to get alot of tone, maybe too much. still need to practice

my cat

was talking to my friend hannah, i was feeling really shit about trying to find jobs, and she help me sending me links and trying to motivate me and, it has worked alittle, although iv had no look with finding a job i want.i going to continue to look tomorrow afternoon, see what comes up.

was meant to sort out going up to newcastle with jack next week, shit and i got work in 10mins.sound be fun tho, lots or girlies up there, meant to be awsome nights out. cant get as drunk as last time tho!

bye buy sis!

2006-09-17T23:44:00.000+01:00

went out last night with my sister and her mates for afew drinks, i ended up getting wasted cos i never really ate much, just some chicken nuggets, i was ok when i was out, when i got in i had some more beers.

ended up sleeping at 3am, mum woke me up at 7:50 got to get ready to set off to york.
my sister was moving out to uni, oww i was so tired it was crazy. also my segment of my lip ring fell out in my sleep and healed over, gutted, but i manged to push it it from the bottom and it bled o yes.

owww i wont see my sister much anymore (not that i saw her that much anyway, about an hour a week) but still its good to know shes just around you know. she seams to have settled already, her flat mates are geeks, so i think she hooked up with some girls from the flat next door, and there chillas she said to sall good.

she aint like me who came home crying cos i couldn't hack it. mind you ashenhurst sucked balls!
she aint got the internet, if that was me id be fukt, cant live without it.

oh yeh i aint updated this blog for abit, we went out last thurs to get pissed and we ended up having a kiss and i thought that it was going well and we were going to try and give it another go, cos last sunday she said if i kiss her and let her get close to me she will try. then week after shes its now ovs aint going to work, we need to move on. what a change from the other week, one min kissing having fun, next its that! i dont get girls

unless she started fuking chris that week and then started seeing him and her who opions just changed, she said she aitn got feelings for me anymore and its not her fault she cant control it, but ovs if u can turn it off like a light switch in a week then you can.

i got linz to meet me today, i wanted to talk, but she wont in the mood to talk so we just chilled for an hour before work. she text me saying"thers sumting i need2tel u n u wnt lyk it! linz x" i recon it was that shes seeing chris, the guy she cheated on me with.

but i asked her and should couldn't bring herself to do it, she went bright red and sed no it dunt matter, ill tell u later.

meeting her tomorrow after work to i guess find out what she said, im gona be fukin gutted. that tool is moving to spain in 2 months so if she is seeing her it wont last long so there would be no point.

pisses me off tho knowing i got cheated on then she fuks off with him, makes me feel like a mug, like she never cared at all anyway, and was just taking me for a ride. i dunno how she gets her kicks off that shit.

sometimes i wish she would tell me all the truth, then id wish i could go back and tell her to fuk off at the house party, when i think about it, i only txt her that night cos my sister made me, if maria had been late or not bothered going, shit like that would never happen.

was sick of work and i decided i couldn't be assed to go to the pub this week on my day off. so i fukin missioned over to brad to see rick again was a mad ass mission really spair of the moment, but was totaly worth it, out chillin till 5:30 like good time when was at uni. got afew frames 1/2 decent

really enjoyed the train journy back thought the yorkshire countryside.sometime i think i miss when i used to come home from uni for the weekend. at that time about 7-8ish the sun was setting and some scences looked amazing.

yeh this is my new deviant its had a fair few views, well for me, probs cos of the content tho

crusing to robin hoods bay, well fukin turned out to be scarbough but was good fun all the same

rick filling up his new girlfriend, with 96 ron cum! haha he wishes. like this shot not technicaly great but i captured a moment between master and machine

sun flair in a field just outside york

shadow from hills behind me, so only got the top of the field and some trees then huge fairly clear sky, messing around in photoshop really this frame

love the lighting the trackor lines

totaly abstract baby, this is something to to with train tracks, looking up, with the lights coming from inside the train, reflecting off the glass and being captured.

AF nikon D70 set on apature mode with flash on, gota love linz cheezy photo, think it looks kool to. croped and adjust by me tho, her composition was badddd lol, worse than mine

talking of linz i kissed her on sunday, she was pissed off at me because she said she has tried to get close to me but cant, but it was because i kept shutting her out, waiting for her to kiss me to say she wonted me back. she said that it was too late now, the "break" is over and that we have properly broken up now. she gave me the band back.

1 hour later we were kissing on my bedroom floor. but she was still being cold towards me, always me kissing her not her kissing me. got pissed off and decided to go do something to take my mind of it.

met her last night went for a drink and ended up kissing her again, this time tho she relaxed. fuk knows what this means? but sok im just gona chill, see where it goes

she said shes gona take me out for a curry and pay for it, ill feel tight letting her pay, but will be a good night, when it ever happends... hum when do i have a night off from work... errr never accept thursday, oohh whos working thursday.. linz nice one! sucks man

ok peace x

speaking of linz, i dunno how shits going, this last weeks been abit strange i stayed over on sunday night, we got on really well, play fighting, flirtin n shit.
i dunno she seams comfortable around me now, and she got outa bed and started crying, she said she was "thinkin" and it made her upset. fuk knows?? she said she forgot how much she loved takin merlin for walks and was acting strange earlyer saying she was thinking about things.

2006-08-17T12:45:00.000+01:00

I have just decided to start a blog

maybe to kill time

maybe to document the most pointless things in my life

maybe cos its what everyone seams to be doing these days

fuk it tho , its kool

like a diary-that people can read?

so its not really like a diary then is it!

i can post lots of pointless photos on my blog and not feel its filling my dA space or making my gal look shit

whatever

gona buy some tri-x or some ilford rolls off ebay and take my WOCA-NF1 into town do some street photography,

totaly inspired by Mr Weeks recent submittion on dA

you can tell hes worked hard on it

so many fucking people must be inspired by it

you can download it here

http://www.deviantart.com/download/38038974/

mind you it is write for the members and subscribers of dA

im writing this blog as if i wont read it again (probs true) and that someone else will (doubt it)

gona blog afew recent frames just gota get my flickr account sorted again but should be kool

gona scan afew poloroids of my fav poloroids too

shit need to by a new pack

there so expensive tho seeing as im a student

photography is a expensive hobbie

mind you what isn't

ok maybe trainspotting or someshit like that

peace till later x
