I haven’t been doing much photography lately; The last few weeks have been taken up mostly with geeky computer stuff and website designs… all very good but it keeps you glued to the computer monitor and stops you from going out there in the big blue yonder to do what you love most – Photography!!!

I was going through the backlog of the gerzillion tons of photos that has yet to be processed in my archive, and found this little gem! I love the nightlife (I

know these words are the begining to a disco tune and I am trying very hard not to burst into a song & dance number) and I love Soho. But especially so at night – Soho comes alive with the myriad of colours, people and characters.

Must try and find some time to do more night shoots in Soho before winter sets in. By the way, I was debating on whether to keep this as a black & white shot or in colour. Settled in the end for a black & white version. What do you think?

On a recent photowalk in Dungeness with the cool kids, TheRandyManCan and Madam L (Mr Jam unfortunately can’t come out to play!!), we decided to go ahead with the “photographer’s shootout” idea we thought up several moons ago.

The idea is a very simple one – One location. One theme. A bunch of REALLY cool photographers. SHOOTOUT!!!!

I won’t go into details on the judging etc etc, but the winner gets….wait for it, drum roll please…. The recognition that you’re THE COOLEST KID ON THE BLOCK!!! Oh, and all the pints you can drink at the local pub.

Here’s the set of 9 images submitted by TheRandyManCan, Madam L and myself. Since Mr Jam can’t make it this time, he has the wonderful pleasure of playing Mr Judge. Click on the book to view fullscreen. Enjoy!!!

Spent the day wandering around Newhaven with my good friend (and brilliant photographer) Randy & his partner Jay, his lordship & our two dalmatians – Ben & Jazmyn. We found a wonderful pub called The Hope Inn over at the west pier – Wonderfully welcoming and great food. But most of all, it’s a dog-friendly pub!!!

The day ended in Brighton, with several more beers enjoyed over at The Amsterdam Bar, situated on the seafront opposite Brighton’s famous Palace Pier.
