Beach HDRs

Some HDR's (high dynamic range ie. combined images with different exposures to make one good one. I took them this morning on the beach in the snow (although the snow is behind me)

Snow Day!

My English is exam is three weeks today. So, naturaly, I made the best snowman ever! (we don't get much snow in Jersey)

The Temper Trap

I downloaded a new album today, based upon my liking of their song Sweet Disposition and the more than complimentary ratings on Play.com and itunes. I wasn't disappointed. You may recognise Sweet Disposition from a Summer ITV advert and I think either Fader or Fools have has some airtime.

To describe their sound, try: Subdued Trippy Techno Indie, or perhaps alternatively fellow fan Claire's description: Summer on Acid. A title for their follow-up methinks.

Shadow Puppets

Blood

A few posts ago I featured some images from the found Blood Series that I was going to respond to. So today I found myself in a chilly studio avoiding teachers and pouring UV sensitive body paint over my face and bare torso.

Thus, a few darkened rooms, a UV torch and more than a few baffled faces later - here are the final (and edited) photographs. Quite a success I think. More aggressive and notably eerier than the original Blood Series, my photographs address a more psychological disturbance than a biological observation, although after a few er... minor tweaks on Photoshop, the resulting white images portray a very biological form. A muscle-and-blood scan, if that exists.

Anyway I'm happy with them and I also got a few good video clips of fleeting faces and emerging biomorphs in the darkness. Nice.

Rock On

'Rock On', Jekyll

On a cold winter's day when a cold is inevitable...

Nothing beats a good bit of Patti Smith with Jaffa Cakes and Tea.

Weak and Milky please ;-)
