On a cloudy Saturday…

It’s been too long since I just went out and took photos…so I decided to do just that on Saturday and took a bunch of macros around the neighbourhood – we have a makeshift meadow down the road complete with a small stream and, I was surprised to discover, a couple of plastic roses…

The Wild Eyes at Evol

Friday
1 July
2011

Last time I was at Evol, I don’t even think it was called Evol…I was 12 and with my mom (because she’s cool like that) watching Miss Kittin DJing, and really don’t remember much of the venue itself.

From the archives: June/July 2005-2011

June/July 2005 – 2010

I’ve been taking photos for ages and really got interested in photography when I was around 14/15. One of the things I love about the whole digital age is that you can take as many photos as you like without worrying about film and development costs; in my mind this means ‘take photos of everything, all the time’, so that’s what I did for a long time and now I have hardrives full of forgotten pictures…

It seemed like a nice idea to go through them and re-look some of the more interesting ones, so here’s the first lot from the archives, from this time 6 years ago up till now…

2005: shooting with a Canon Powershot A95 – the most wonderful compact I’ve ever used…my dad also bought a second-hand Canon film camera round this time an I took a few shots on it too.
