It was really nice for me to photograph an event like this although on the day I shot a wedding at lunchtime, got absolutely drenched, had a wedding meeting, then photographed the Sargeants Ball in [...]

Today was full of Eastern performers. There were a group of, I’m assuming Japanese, performers dressed up as Geisha’s and a quite funny Chinese-Canadian magician. She did a houdini act and made loads of jokes about white people, not a bad thing at all. There was also a guy from Australia who balanced himself with [...]

It’s funny but everyday there seems to be more of one thing and less than others. I’ve walked down the mile one day and there have been loads of musical performers and another day something else.

This year I wanted to really check out the Fringe Festival but sadly I’ve not had much time. I’ve either been doing photography work or I’ve been doing my IT job but with family commitments I just haven’t been into town that much. But I did manage to walk through about 4 or 5 times, [...]

Last year I watched this race from West Bow and it had one of the top British riders ever racing in it but this year I wanted to capture the race from a different angle. The folding bike race was awesome to watch as ever. Last year it was great fun and this year was [...]
