Walk 'n Snap

Took these while walking to the tube on the way to work this freezing cold morning. Would have taken more, but I was running late. . .and having my hands out of my pockets to take pictures was causing them to freeze and hurt :(

Hope all you readers are doing well and surviving the cold. . .and if you celebrated Thanksgiving, I hope you had a happy one!

Christmas Shopping

I was off from work today, so Dave and I decided to head down to Oxford Street to start some holiday shopping.

It was INSANE. Crowds and crowds of people pushing eachother, carrying bags and bags of shopping. . .singers, charities asking for money, a random rock climbing wall set up in the middle of the street. . .people handing out balloons. . .craziness. . .

We didn't stay too long, due to the craziness, but I did get to snap a few nice window displays before we headed to dinner.

I always love the avante-garde classicism of ZARA's window displays. . .

Bershka

Good luck to all of you with your holiday shopping. Hopefully you don't get injured and/or learn to crowd surf~

Beauty Behind Buildings

I was walking past a building unbeknownst to me and this caught my peripheral line of vision and made me stop in my tracks, turn, grab my camera and snap.

The angles that these three buildings made were beautiful. Hidden away in the alley's shadows was a bold, jagged, assymetrical silhouette, waiting to be discovered.

Do Not Disturb

As much as I love taking pictures of cats, I'm actually a total dog person lol. I'm allergic to cats, and can't touch them without having to wash my hands right after. I don't like their claws. . .they are too sharp. But. . .they are still freakin cute to look at! :3

I've been really into making series images lately. I think that the repetition and movement in the images add a lot of energy and character to the whole picture.

What do you guys think?

The Fog

Finsbury Park, 19/11/2010, 7:25 am

Winters cold, grey mist and dampness surrounds me. Drinking in the icy air with every breath. I can not see across the field. What was once there is now lost, submerged in the fog.

Plush Hats

Has anyone else noticed this huge winter trend!?
Plush hats! There's all kinds of 'em out there. . .tigers, bears, koalas, frogs. . .I even saw a Mickey Mouse one in camden. . .which I thought about purchasing :3 . . .it was too cute!

Rania and I tried on a few in River Island the other night. Not quite sure where we'd wear them to though~ :P

lllANSWER MElll

A few months ago I was sitting in Dulles Airport in D.C. and was playing with my new Nikon I had just received as a present from my parents. I began photographing things at my gate, these telephones being some of my favourite subjects. I loved their textures and colours. The thought of using payphones is so retro to me. . .especially today, in an age of "smartphones" and "androids". With this image, I wanted to bring payphones back from the past and thrust them into the future. Robotic, aggressive and edgy. . .demanding that you answer. . .these are the New telephones.

Gaga knows this. . .

Fly Away

I took these images while walking around the park in Southfields.

I love photographing animals, especially birds. You only have a few seconds to get the image before they fly away.

Call To The Past

Phew! Thank God they put the emergency number on there, or else I'd NEVER remember it!



Want to get your hands on a beautiful, vintage telephone? Head on over to Covent Garden Market!

Eyes Wide Shut

So I stumbled upon this fun discovery the other night. . .

Who better to have sculpted into porcelain(I think it's porcelain) than YOU? :)

It's called The Life-Like Project:Life Sculptures by Herrera Gianino

The sculptors name is Jose Luis Herrera Gianino, and he kindly allowed me to photograph him while he worked.

If you're interested in having your face preserved, check out his shop in the Covent Garden Market or visit www.lifelikeproject.com

CREEPY COOL!

Exploring

On my last day off, I decided to go exploring with my camera. I wanted to dedicate the whole day to taking photos. And even if I only took one photo that I loved, it would make the whole day worth it.

Here's a few of them. . .

This one was my favourite of the day. The man was so peaceful there, hardly moving at all, fitting in perfectly with his environment. The bars bothered me at first, but I liked the feeling of separation and being apart from the outer reality of the city. . .and the sense of us being outside his peaceful world.

I've realised a pattern with these images. Architecture, Person, Architecture, Person. . .hmmmm what does it mean??? o.O

Hope you enjoy them~

2NE1 UPDATE

Make-up can really do WONDERS!

But to be fair, I'm sure they found the worst pictures possible of the girls to put together.
I'd probably look worse than they do after waking up in the morning!
We are all human. . .but. . .it is fun to see the drastic change make-up and clothes can make! :3



2NE1 have recently released a new music video for their track 'It Hurts'.
And although the fairytale/scarytale fashion trend is a few seasons past, I can't help but love the set design and styling for the video.

Check it out! :D

If you haven't listened to their new album, do it now.






All I have left to say is, that I still love the girls, their music and their style.

GO 2NE1!

Clear My Mind

So today there was a tube strike.

You can already guess what kind of mood that put me in.

I get to work at 4:10pm after being on the bus for over an hour.

First thing I hear is that the work I did the night before was "lousy".

This didn't help my mood.

Why am I working in a Mexican fast food restaurant?? This isn't what I want. This was nowhere in my dreams or ever part of my answer whenever people would ask; "What's your dream job?"

I needed to get out. I needed to leave and clear my mind. . .get back to myself.

I left work by 7.

I wandered the streets aimlessly, trying to reach some sort of calm.

Is Christmas here already? It is in Covent Garden.

After taking some photos, I felt somewhat at ease. I needed that.

Burritos BE GONE!!
