The Terminator

Hare Krishna

Our studio was made extra serene last week when a monk came to join us for the day. The smell of  jasmine filled the air and sounds of Buddhist chanting made for a very relaxing shoot.

Here we see our subject perfecting the art of yogic flying.

Tony Dell at 90

Here’s Mr Tony Dell, Art buyer and head of visual inspiration at DLKW/LOWE.

Tony asked me if I would be kind enough to make a portrait of him for a special birthday that was coming up. I of course said yes and immediately invited him over to my studio. And here he is… on his 90th birthday ! Still working as hard as ever and a continual inspiration to us all.

You can learn more about what make this great man tick at his blog www.dellirious.co.uk

Go Tony !!

Q; Why is it so common to find people of all nationalities being photographed doing the victory V ?

Answers welcome

Kenroku-en 1

Stalking people is hard. I sometimes shoot with a strange looking camera called an Alpa www.alpa.ch which makes images of an amazing quality. It’s a slow camera to work with which is great as it slows the process of picture making right down and gives one time to think. You have to measure the light independently, measure the point of focus independently…… it takes some getting used to. Whilst in Kanzanawa, Japan I spent a day in the gardens of Kenroku-en. I soon found myself following people around….. waiting for the right moment…. for a happy accident. I find that pretending to photograph something whilst observing people on the periphery and waiting for that special something can produce a picture where its subjects are totally unaware of being placed within a carefully constructed image. It’ll probably get me into some bother one day though.
