British Hairdresser of the Year Awards 2011 - Photography for Signature Salon

The second shoot for Signature Salon went really well with the results certainly eclipsing anything I had done previously in the studio. It was an 8 hour day, with many days of processing to follow but the feedback from the client made it all worthwhile.

Keele Three Counties Entries

These are my three entries for this years Keele Open Photography competition. Unfortunately, the bottom 2 were substitutes, one for a picture which was over-cropped by the framers, which is my fault really as I should have asked or got it printed with more bleed space, and the other was a silhouette which printed just a fraction too dark. Luckily, I know these things happen and so had 6 pictures printed and framed to give me options.

A great many thanks to all the people who studied my options for Keele and gave me great feedback which helped in choosing these images. I am not overly confident about my chances this year but fingers crossed anyway

Too Cute to Not Share

 

My sisters mental dog, Roxy. 

Now I really buzz off fine art, conceptualism and photography with a deep and meaningful social comment - but I am not blind to 'cute', and for the one second an hour Roxy is sill and calm, she is definitely cute. Anyway. I entered this for the Petsavers Digital Photography 2011 Competition so good luck Roxy, my sister will be very proud if you perform well - and there is a cash prize!

January Camping

Many thanks to Georg Schirmer for hosting another wonderful camping weekend at his mums farm in Oakhanger. I took a couple of hours out to do some night time long exposure photography but the freezing fog dictated what I could and couldn't do, but more fog may well have made for better images.
Anyway, some of the shots came out ok, I need to spend some time going through them but here are a couple to keep Georg at bay.

Please Help - Picking work for a local photo competition.

Hi everyone,

I will be entering the Three Counties Photographic Competition later this month and I want at least 1 of my entries to be chosen by people visiting my blog, maybe even all 3. So please take a look at the shots below and pick out what you think is the best shot or your favourite 3.
