I had the pleasure tonight of shooting Maggi Hambling as she took a break from the hullabaloo of the East Contemporary Art VIP night to get some fresh air. I rather like the way her accessories are complimented by the festoon lights around the marina.
Adrian Duffy & the Mayo Brothers video shoot
Long day shooting stills for Adrian Duffy & The Mayo Brothers new video today. Got very James Bondish at one point.
Fuji PA-145 back on Toyo View
This has not been a good week for me. Coming down from an exhaustive but rewarding event as part of equals=ephemera to slump into post-admistrative treacle and a home without a dog that seemed to be very much bigger than he was, I needed to find something positive to do and when I finally got […]
Recovered Fuji Instant negatives
This week has been very topsy-turvy with my little office helper not here anymore. One of the ideas that came to light during our ‘ephemera’ event was the recovery of negatives from Fuji instant film. In the past I have chucked these into my waste bag and just scanned the print but today I recovered […]
Lights go out
This has been a roller coaster of of a journey these last 4 months and indeed these last 13 years. Four months of equals exhibiting work in three locations came to an end on Saturday after a hectic last day of our ‘ephemera’ event in Ipswich Town Hall as part of the inaugural Recreate Ipswich […]
Friday 13th September – ephemera
equals=ephemera’s penultimate day resulted in some interesting visitors and results. A day that started with having our dog Sam put down after living with us for 13 years had to have some positive results and a few are shown here. Let’s hope tomorrow will bring lots of people into our studios at Ipswich Town Hall.
After Radio
Well, Lesley Dolphin, BBC Radio Suffolk certainly did us a favour in Gallery 3 at Ipswich Town Hall. Visitors turned up today in what can only be described as singularly inclement conditions because they heard about us on the wireless. Here are a few pictures made today. The Scottish Widows lookalike was made by Keith […]
equals = BBC Radio Suffolk
Today, I had a delightful wireless interview with Lesley Dolphin fromBBC Radio Suffolk. All in all it has been a good start to week 2 of our residency at Ipswich Town Hall. We have had repeat footfall and interest in our work. Couple that with with a gaggle of last year’s new intake about to […]
Busy ephemera Saturday
Saturday, as expected, was the busiest day of our first week in Gallery 3 at Ipswich Town Hall. We started off with a continuation of large format photographic techniques and created a new Rembrandt lighting arrangement in the low key studio using barn doors and snoots with honeycomb grids to control the lighting. The lighting […]
Photography and Eccles cakes
In the run up to the inaugural Recreate Ipswich event that Ipswich Borough Council has not deemed fit to advertise, I and my ‘equals’ colleagues were busy trying to reach out to potential visitors and contributors to our event. One of the ideas I had was to engage with market traders and possibly photograph them […]
