Patterns Of Light, Casinos And Train Passengers

Anybody who knows me knows that I've got a strange addiction to patterns. Watching this today got me excited to make more videos, and the simplicity of this video made it all the more beautiful. It's a music video for Maledict Car by the Japanese band Jemapur and was directed by Kosai Sekine to form part of the Tokyo.Ten - a showcase DVD and book which looks worth picking up.

In photography I enjoy the task of highlighting things that your average person does not spot. Whether it's the beautiful repetition of balconies on a rundown block of flats who's shades of colour change in the sunlight as you progress away from the light source. Or the underside of a bridge with water reflecting on a perfect mono-grey shade of concrete with the exact perfection of the columns at equal distance from each other.

So there you have it, that's what floats my photography boat! Once I get my new portfolio website together I'll be putting some of my photography up and will link to it from here. Until then check my flickr.

112 Years Of Olympic Medals

So.. after recently viewing David Sparshoot's blog on the ycn, and at the same time receiving a stern word in the ear from my boy Patl I decided that it was quite simply time to pull my finger out and get the blog flowing.

The plan is simple.. one post per day, a snapshot of my daily brain workings and an insight into just what makes me tick. There will no doubt be links to my flickr, where I've decided to dump a load of images that I've come across on the net. The reasons for this are tarnished in misery, I emailed fffound begging to be added as a user and I've been shunned.

So here's the first post of many, a time-based chart of the number of olympic medals won by countries. Click here.
