....I am going on holiday, Yay!

From this Thursday I will be in Ruisseau, Marcon, in the Loire Valley, on I hope, a sun, book, wine, pondering and wandering filled week! I am already getting excited and packing my case, so far-3 chick lit nonsense books from the Library, optimistic suncream and new bright yellow sun dress from Rokit on Brick Lane, that also doubled as my 'Bollywood/Indian' costume for the house party we had at our house last night!

So in a French inspired moment, these are a few things that are totally ace!

Testing, Testing

Fleurs

Howdy! I had a day last week of test shooting, I treated myself to some lovely blooms from the awesome Urban Flower Company in Crouch End. So many lovely flowers to choose from and I was let into a little secret about why they were keeping some thorns on roses-sworn to secrecy tehe!

Anyway the day was super sunny and bright so I had to wait to take a few shots in the outdoors till the light was less harsh. So in the mean time I shot these indoors on a table top.

The flowers are Astrantia, common name Hattie’s pincushion or Masterwort. The foliage is Salal and Euonymous. (Little help from a mother's knowledge).

Yep amazing!

This makes me want to have a lot more greenery in my house! Created by Dutchman Fedor van der Falk. The project is titled String Gardens and the 'balls' are created using three-dimensional crochet filled with plaster, soil, moss, and grass, they look like they would swing about in your house and you could play games with them!

Slicing and folding of beak book with everyones photographs & information included.

The show must go on & it did, even when the heavens opened for our preview evening, none of the photographs came down, even my 7 foot high portraits and people turned out for the exhibition! Liverpool was so much fun over the weekend though, with events and exhibitions happening all over the city for Look2011, the photography festival and fellow photographers from my Lightbox project last year also had their shows! wahey!

A few photographs of the show, black & white ones from David Galpin Photography.

They are up!

My prints that is, I was jumping up and down with excitement when I saw how awesome they looked! Thanks so much to Trevor Olner. Trev is one of the 8, from our Transition group, and he did an amazing job on the printing & has superb attention to detail!

Well Monday started off fine and dandy then torrential rain started and we had to bus our shipping containers into the shelter of the Bootle container depo-much better conditions and a LOT less wind action. You forget you are by the sea in Liverpool!

Here are some images that document our day of pasting and if you head to our group website, http://www.transition2011.co.uk/ and go to the blog section we have a multimedia piece by Ciara Leeming, with voiceover by me!
