Big Green Weekend

It's been quite a while since I added anything as I have been a bit busy with setting up a new company, Green Refurb Ltd, with a friend of mine.

I have also been somewhat sidetracked by another project; organising the Big Green Weekend in Hebden Bridge.

As part of the BGW there will be a market in the Marina (HX7 8AD) and I will have a stall selling prints and postcards of my images. So if you're about, come and check it out!

Benvenuti sul mio sito ai lettori di D-La Repubblica delle Donne!

The famous Italian newspaper "La Repubblica" ran a story about my images in its colour supplement "Repubblica delle Donne" this weekend so I'd like to welcome any Italian readers to my website.

A pdf version of the article can be seen here!

Rickshaws agogo!

For my latest image, Rickshaws in Chapel Allerton, I've diverged slightly from my usual habit of making my point with animals and used rickshaws as the symbol of Climate Change, mixed in with a bit of Peak Oilism too.

There is still a small flock of parrots though, for the purists!

Tropical World

Despite its tacky title, conjuring up images of plastic tigers and taped monkey noises, my recent visit to Tropical World at Roundhay Park in Leeds was a very pleasant surprise.

Although relatively small, the arbortoreum has several distict micro-climates ranging from rain forest to swamp to desert and proved a useful place to get some shot for more foilage for my pics.

The image posted here hasn't been used yet but if you spot it, or any of its component parts, in one of my images in the future, please get in touch and, if you are first to do so, I will send you a free a3 print as a prize.

I have already used a couple of the photos however, on my brand new image of the Seven Arts Centre in Chapel Allerton that went on the website today.
