Camden
Taken in Camden at about 9.30ish. Best time to get the locals before the tourists arrive en mass. This picture is a bit of a creative experiment. Light and shade, people visible, people in silhouette, reflection. Taken from a window from a famous pub/music venue (see bar stool). It’s an odd one because your eye…

Three Ways
Been going through a bit of a creative wilderness the last few weeks or what writers call “writers block”…….hence the lack of updates. It’s been so bad I have been out in London for hours with the camera and come back with NOTHING….. not one picture…ZERO. Before I took this picture I looked at a…

Top Cuvee
Top Cuvee? Was going to call this EYES but that’s too obvious so Top Cuvee it is. It’s a restaurant apparently, but it’s more about the whole picture. I saw this when I was in North London a couple of weeks ago (see Islington photo) in the Islington/Highbury/Finsbury Park sort of area. It looks like…

Islington
Took this picture of and advert at a bus stop as it just sums up the crazy times we are in. An advert that says “hey look at me and my designer coat (and designer hairdo)….you too could be just like me?” With stacks of words hitting the headlines having crisis at the end of…
