Remembering driving into L.A in August 2005 at night coming from Las Vegas listening to this heat track. Kevin Howbrook was driving and I was with Stella Kim, Ross Barnes, Gareth Martin-Royle on an epic journey across the states!

Walked up ‘Gallt y Felin Wynt‘ and planted a tree whilst the deer watched.

Magical end to 2010

Sunday, January 9th, 2011

The photos below were taken towards the end of 2010 in a wintery Leeds and snow covered mystical Wales where I spent Christmas. They were taken on my new old camera which is a gorgeous Kodak Retinette. I found the camera in a bric and brac shop in my home town of Abergele. I am still learning how to use it and the below photos are from my first film in this camera. even though the photos are blurry and over exposed this has created a kind of mystical/magical reminiscent feel to the photos which I love.

Sunday, May 2nd, 2010

new york city trip booked

Not long ago I booked a trip to New York and I can’t wait! It will be the second time I visit the city and I’ll be going with some people I really don’t see enough of. Two of which are fashion designers – Ross Barnes and Caroline Carrig, can’t wait to spend time with these guys and have an amazing time in the big apple. We are going to be visiting and staying with Stella Kim an interactive designer at Razorfish. It’s going to be brilliant! I will definitely take a multitude of photographic equipment with me.

Got a flickr account

flickr

I have set up a flickr account, why not ey! For a while I have thought the flickr interface was clunky and not at all user friendly. However now I have been playing with it for a few days I have to say it has grown on me, I especially like the slide show feature. Anyway check out my pics here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/59088979@N00/

Most of the photos were taken using an old lomo camera, hence the slightly crap but kinda cool look to a lot of them.

New Parsonage – House of Art and Design

house of art and design

Just found these old picture’s from my final year of university, at the time I was living with some good friends in London and it was brilliant! Especially because we were a mixture of graphic designers, artists and fashion designers and the house we were living in (New Parsonage) was massive and a brilliant sociable space. These photo’s were used on my old website to promote the little artist collective we had going on in the house. Below are a couple of pics of some of the New Parsonage housemates.

Some of the guys have websites of their own now:

Ross Barnes – Fashion designer

Gareth Martin Royle – Graphic designer

Stella Kim -  Interaction designer

Caroline Carrig – Fashion/Textile designer

Kevin Brian Howbrook – Artist/designer

Wales – I Loves it.
