KYH: Visual Pushups

I’ve spent my last couple of lunch breaks watching the brilliant new class over at Kelby Training, “A day with Jay Maisel.” Jay is an American photographer based in New York. In the industry he’s well known for his photo walk workshops, as well as for his straight-talking, true-New-Yorker style. During the class, Scott Kelby [...]

Could you lie your head on the horse, please?

First and foremost: A pox on Starbucks that don't have wifi. It's just not on, people. A man needs his connection to the interwubs. I'm writing this in a Starbucks in Richmond, which, as you might have gathered, doesn't have any wifi. You'll be getting this via the wonderful medium of a tethered N95 (because [...]

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 [...]

Cold steel and glass

Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 298 Buildings around Canada square in London. I took this shot because I liked the feeling of confusion that all the more-or-less identical grids of steel and glass gave; like being lost in a forest of giant, soulless, man-made trees.

Very quickly

Very quick post because I’m supposed to be going out to photograph most of London (this may be an exaggeration; we’ll see) before too long. Of course, it would have helped if I’d actually done some organising of said photo walk; that may cause problems. It’s been a good, if very tiring week. We – [...]

Blue Kingdom

Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 294 1 Kingdom Street, Paddington Central, London. I had a few minutes to shoot before the start of caffeine. That’s probably why I left my camera in portrait mode (and the wrong ISO, incidentally) rather than in the vivid saturation mode I [...]

Leaving on a jet plane

A cliché of a title, I know, but it’s late and I’m past being able to think about it. Yes, dear readers, I’m off on my travels again. Tomorrow I’m off to London (rather stupidly I’ve got to fly from Manchester to Gatwick because there’s no train journey that would get me to London from [...]

Strings of pearls

Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 176 Taken, as you might be able to tell, next to the London Eye at night. A lucky shot, really; I didn’t have the lens for this to work the way I would have liked, but it’s not bad.
