Photographs of the Week: London Snapshots

During last weeks European heatwave this particular idiot had the misfortune of spending the UK’s hottest day ever in business attire traipsing between Gatwick to central London for work. Its fair to say that suits and 37º heat do not go together! It was so hot on the tube that after work I preferred to […]

DC Exhibition

So the day is finally here and I’m currently at the O2 in London as I’m staying overnight before my flight to Estonia tomorrow. I’ve just been to the very cool DC Exhibition which is pretty much heaven for a movie and comic book geek like myself. There are hundreds of original comic book pages, […]

A few days in London

The drawback of living in the Channel Islands is that you’ve got to head to the UK to be able to get anywhere else, and most of the time that means Gatwick Airport. If you want to see a show, a concert or an exhibition then London is the most accessible place to go. I’ve […]

2017 – Highs and Lows

What a gig. Half concert, half multimedia, laser, video, lightshow…. thing. 100% brilliant Northern Lights in Tromso – 21/9 Less than 20 hours later and I’m sitting outside in freezing temperatures with my camera on a tripod and waiting for nightfall and a possible glimpse of the Northern Lights deep in the Arctic Circle. Eventually […]

360º Video – Crossing the Thames by Cable Car

https://gallery.giroptic.com/play/SgjIe7JCzOYf6?full This is a new thing that I’ve been trying recently, 360º Video. I’ve been shooting lots of it, but this is the first time that I’ve tried embedding it into my website. On a desktop you should be able to click and drag the picture to move the image on any direction. On smartphones it […]

Tottenham v Juventus

It’s been a while since I was last able to see Spurs play live so I jumped at the chance to see them taking on a club like Juventus at Wembley. Unfortunately the match wasn’t very well attended due to a boycott by a lot of fans due to ticket prices set by the 3rd […]

Top Gear and Peter Kay – London, November 2010

November 6th 2010 After the concert and finishing our food, we headed back to the hotel. Whilst the sensible thing to do would be to go to bed in preparation for what we all knew was to be an early start the next morning; we in fact did the opposite. A prior trip to the […]

Imogen Heap Concert – London, November 2010

November 5th, 2010 Sometime in February 2010, Imogen Heap announced that she would be putting on a performance at the Royal Albert Hall on November 5th. As it happens, I had already booked to see Imogen in concert later in February when I went over for my birthday. However, the chance of another weekend in […]

Yo(tel)

So a couple of weeks ago I was in London watching Fulham in the League. Now I’m in London again watching Fulham in the Europa League. Only this time I’m in a hotel in Gatwick Airport waiting to catch a flight to Marrakech. This is the 2nd time I’ve stayed at the Yotel; the first […]
