Dan - a portrait

I'm not normally very impressed with my creative skills, but I took a photograph of Dan yesterday of which I'm really quite proud. It is, of course, down to his chiselled good looks and my sneakiness - long lens, 20 feet away while his consciousness was otherwise engaged - but it cried out for monochrome, and it's really worked well. Click in it for a larger one.



I also took this one on my way home from the station, solely for its slightly mournful attempt to import a bit of 50s LA into backstreet Wolverhampton. Wish I'd had my tripod with me.

    really cool pics, Voley. I think you could be assured a job as a paparazzo if you ever tire of facilitating learning.

    Thanks. The phrase 'facilitating learning' makes me hurl. That's the way it's going though…
