Lightly Motivated
I seem to be taking in training material at an accelerated rate. I don’t know if I’m just trying to compensate for a lack of shooting time recently (on which subject more later) or whether I’ve just got too much disposable income at the moment, but with books, CreativeLIVE and Kelby Training and now Bert [...]
Before I go…
I should be asleep. I should, by rights, be exhausted, because it's been a long week of too-ing and fro-ing and I seem to have not stopped for any decent length of time, unless it's when I've been asleep, which hasn't been much. Anyway, back from London, done a couple of days work (but disjointedly [...]
Day the second
Aha, so the Starbucks opposite Richmond station does have wi-fi. It's just the one further down the road that is made entirely out of fail.

I'll expand on these later (if I remember) but I'm now heading off [...]
Still places left on the Bert Stephani London workshop
I think I’ve mentioned it before, but on the 7th and 8th of September I’ll be attending Bert Stephani‘s lighting workshop, as organised by Callum Winton. Callum sent the following out by email today: The not quite so good news is that of the 25 workshop places, we currently have just 11 people that have [...]
Squeeze The LIME
I’ve been getting more and more serious about this photography lark for quite a while now, and one of the sites that I’ve been enjoying most is that of Belgian pro photographer Bert Stephani, particularly his video series Confessions of a Photographer. Today, Bert and his friend Pieter Van Impe have announced their new project [...]
