Coastal hazards..

Characters at the Edinburgh FringeCharacters at the Edinburgh FringeDiving down a back alley I came across two people in character, taking a break. It wasn't until much later I noticed that there is a seagull on the man's head......

It's funny what you find when you are trawling (no coastal pun intended) through some of your older shots. Just walking past the end of an alley in Edinburgh I shot this unusual couple having a conversation - anywhere other than Edinburgh ( where all things are possible / likely) would have been too surreal for words. It was only a couple of years after I took this, and a couple of days ago, that I noticed he has a seagull on his head. How weird is that then? Still, I suppose Edinburgh is on the coast. You think he would have noticed. 


Damp, and in Bolton

Not exactly Bolton, but it felt like this. 9.00am and in Queens Park, Bolton, standing under Niagara falls, or something similar, on the wettest day of the year, camera perched on a tripod in a plastic cover, brolly stuck point-down in a patch of grass, wondering where the light has gone. Not the best day for a landscape assignment. The problem with waterproof trousers is that the water all runs downwards into yer boots. 

Shooting on film. I'll post some shots up when I digitise it. Must dry the camera out.

What?

Yeah, OK - so it's not Bolton in the picture.

Rumbled.
