New Assignment :S






































This weeks new assignement was to make images from nothing! Basically we went to two tree island and had to in our own way document the space. I decided to do a combination of images of things that grew along the path and the path itself, with a little bit of scenery of the water and the boats that are left there. Below are a few of the images taken from the day x

Can you find James?

Fail!

Well today was a fail of epic proportion! Not only did I fork out for Geoff, James and I to travel all the way into London but I didn't get to do any of the things that I had planned or arranged because my timing went right out the window. In answer to yesterdays blog yes it is all in the prep but there is no use prepping when the world conspires against you................ :(
Anyone that knows me will understand that I usually have more front that tesco, though today I woke up with the feeling that I shouldn't head into the city by myself so took both Geoff and the little man along because I was having a weird day. Went straight to the BBC headquarters at Portland place and promptly ignored two actors from the movie "This is England" because I did not have a clue who they were, and it wasn't until the autograph hunters came along that I realised I had missed an opportunity. I then got a text from my man on the inside at the hotel were a certain famous (40 year old virgin) was staying  to say that his schedule had changed and I was on the wrong side of London to get there basically not good news. Then headed of to Notting hill and high street Kensington and that was a waste of time, though being scared away by the heavily armed police is always a nice way to end your day :D How was I to know that we had wandered into the one road in the place that housed all the worlds embassy leaders that were working in London, suppose the flags would have been a give away or maybe even the brass plaques nailed to the walls lol!!! Meant to be headed back up tonight for the premiere at Leicester square but from what we have seen/heard I will be lucky to get with a mile of anyone worth taking a picture of, my cameras zoom is good but its not that good!
Fame and fortune were not made today so I suppose I will go back to college tomorrow and continue with my course as it is, though I kind of love it so its kind of win win they get my dulcet tones and Witty repertoire and I get to leave my children to their father for three days a week ah bliss!

Oh I do like to live beside the seaside :D

Its all in the prep right?

I am seriously freaking out about tomorrow! My tutor has set me the task of taking on the persona of a member of the paparazzi which if it only involved speaking to people would be fine or even being a little bit rogue with how I take my pictures. Alas she wants to have me beaten up I think as I need to show work that is relevant to a paparazzi response......what is that? Ten different people giving me the finger? Telling me to do one? Ah the joys of a degree and having a tutor that hates me!!!! I do not lie there is vengeance in the woman's eye every time she glances in my direction lol!!!!! Anyway the plan is to get my bot up to London and see who I can grab without hopefully any injury to me, being arrested or even worse the breaking of cameras.........now that would make me sad very sad indeed. Either that or I may get mad and turn into the hulk and need to turn a camera on myself!! Pretty sure that whatever happens there will be no sleep had tonight!!!!
Decided it was time to start blogging as well as blabbing, incase people dont want to listen to all my antics and stories they now have the opportunity to read about them, or even to go back and relive the earlier described crazy that is my life lol!!!!!!

Anyway the plan is that I hope to be more successful in prior blog attempts, ie set up and never return to this time I hope to update on a near daily basis, with the trivial the exciting and for those that know me the down right strange. There will be times when I will bore even myself but I hope that you will continue to support and follow me in this new chapter!
