Random thinkings
In bullet-point form, because I’m not capable of anything else right now. Banshee is being an arse on Karmic on my desktop machine. Can’t figure out why. It freezes up when playing big files (podcasts are particularly affected by this), plays too fast sometimes (so it sounds like I’m fast-forwarding through songs) and other times [...]Archive

Shooting Michelle at La Mola
I mentioned a few posts back that I did a shoot with my friend Michelle whilst we were both at the Canonical Allhands conference at the La Mola. We didn't have much time - maybe forty minutes for something that I'd usually expect to take a couple of hours over - and the rushing about (not to mention the heat, the humidity and my overwhelming nervousness) meant that I made some rookie mistakes that I shouldn't have. Then again, that was the whole point of the shoot.
Anyway, three weeks after returning from Spain, and I've managed to pare the shoot down to the best sixteen frames that I shot. There were others, but not as good as these, nor as representative of what we did. Michelle was an awesome subject, especially when you consider that she's never posed for anyone before and was being ordered about by a big, hairy, sweaty Englishman with camera around his neck.
Flickr slideshow below the fold. Hope you enjoy it; I enjoyed making it.

From the ORG – A community photocall
A request comes from Becky Hogge of the Open Rights Group (link): Happy-snappers unite! We need as many people as possible to take photos of stuff that embodies the database state, and the UK’s world-famous surveillance society (wake up! You’ve just walked into it). On 11 October, No2ID and the Open Rights Group will make [...]Archive

Portfolionation
It’s funny, isn’t it: I first set up this blog to be a place where I talked about my writing. These days it’s more of a place where I talk about my photography. What a twisted web we weave. Two people in the last week have asked me whether I have a photographic portfolio. The [...]Archive

More uploady goodness
Finally getting caught up on my three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008 project; I’ve now passed the half way mark with my postings. Today, I’ve uploaded a mass of photos, mostly from my time on the Broads a couple of weeks back. You can see them all here or in the Flickr set.Archive

Back
Back home from holiday, having spent a week bobbing about in a boat on the Broads. I’m glad to have a normal bed, which doesn’t sway from side to side when people drive past, and a toilet that doesn’t seem to want to spit its contents back at me all the time. On the other [...]Archive
