Sometimes the light is so flat, so deadly and so dull that the day's bag looks thoroughly depressing. My office is much more cheerful and so I decided a snap of that was preferable to another grey flat offering.

This is my favourite sort of picture as it incorporates the urban rubbish that I love snapping. I am so pleased that I can now use some of my pix for a new project, launched today by the DVJ (Documentary…

... we'll say goodbye to flesh and blood" How I can remember the lyrics of all the albums I listened to in the seventies, but can't remember what I did yesterday?

What a great night! We had the London re-launch party tonight and there was a great buzz, some great images and a thoroughly good time was had by all. I was rather busy socialising, so my photo bag for the…

Not everyone chooses to move around the capital by tube, bus or taxi. Some prefer more traditional forms of transport.
DelJanuary 28, 2013
Still one of my favourites from the marathon, simply because I do love London. As we found out, some 21 hours later, the capital is alive morning, noon and night. What makes it tick will be gradually revealed over the…

Unusual for me to take a flower pic, but I just haven't had time to wander today. A few days ago, I passed a flower seller who had the most glorious orange lilies. He suggested (quite rightly) buying some that…

Because it's winter and because the sky was so heavy with snow, it got dark very quickly - well not really dark, but a sort of horrible mustard greyish colour. Anyway, it felt a lot later than it was and…

Someone will have cold ears by the time they get home tonight. This is the second hat I've found on railings in two days. I like the way people carefully place lost objects on railings and it's good to know…

...to go with the tatties to go with the Haggis, for tonight we are having a Burns supper. The language barrier between north and south causes some confusion as the vegetable we call "swede" is known as a "turnip" in…

A return visit to the RSA for a de-brief with Michael. This time, I had a wider lens with me and was able to lie under the Benjamin Franklin lamp. It is a remarkable piece of science and as a…

... or 'which was the thing to be proved'. I'm a big fan of sparkles produced by long exposures and I used to be quite good at them. But over the past year, I've been getting some disappointing results. At…

I found myself on the Strand this afternoon - oh how different it looked in the wee small hours of Sunday. Part of our plan was to shoot the Monopoly board, but I failed rather miserably. I shall therefore be…

The trigger finger pressed the button on the coffee machine more often than it pressed the shutter button today.

And they're off ... about 50 togs hit Trafalgar Square at 16.00 before heading down Northumberland Avenue, acrosss Hungerford Bridge and around Southbank. I don't have many images for the first hour. First, I had to nip home to dump…

The tension is building as the 24 hour shoot is about to get underway. 1853 costume was an optional extra, and, disappointingly, not an option that many chose. However, Izzi (niece and youngest participant in the Shoot) entered into the…

Well here I am all dressed up in my Victorian finery and ready to leave for the Shoot. MisterMac has gone to the pictures and so I have to take my own pic. I could have used the tripod and…

We did it! Well done to the other eight who completed the 24 hour marathon! It was exhilerating, exciting and completely exhausting but what terrific fun. I'm definitely on for another one - although not next weekend. The highlights were…
