Bessa R2

2012-01-20T03:14:00.001-12:00

Got a new camera! The Voigtlander Bessa R2 manual rangefinder with 28mm f/1.9 lens. Love it. Shooting quite a bit of film recently, on the Mamiya 645 too. It's a lot of fun when the turnaround time isn't a factor. I'll post some examples once I've done some developing.

I've recently moved to a new flat on Lower Marsh, overlooking Waterloo Station. Should have put this shot up earlier really! Good display albeit a little short in my mind.

Pilllaro

2011-08-31T08:19:00.004-12:00

I´m currently resting up for a couple of days in Pillaro after trekking in the Llaganatis.

Llanganatis

2011-08-31T07:55:00.007-12:00

After eight long days trekking in the Llangantis National Park in Ecuador I have arrived in the nearby town of Pillaro. It was an incredible journey, taking in valleys, vistas, and cloud forest along the way. With no paths to follow, we had to make our way along mainly deer tracks, some areas being totally inaccessible. The first couple of days good weather didn´t hold up, and soon we were faced with freezing fog and swirling mist.

Here are a few shots I´ve managed to upload for now. I have also included here a picture of the Flechas, very sharp arrow like plants sticking up like knives from the ground.

Next on the agenda is the Sangay volcano.

Arrival in Quito

2011-08-23T14:58:00.002-12:00

After 16 hours flying we finally arrived in Quito yesterday in thick fiog. Tomorrow morning we will be setting off my Pillaro where the expedition to the Llanganatis will commence. The bags are packed!

Waterproofing all the gear is of paramount importance on this trip. It rained for a few hours today in Quito and it rained hard. I can´t say for sure what to expect in the mountains but it´s sure to be the toughest physical challenge I have faced so far.

Here are few shots from Quito today. I´ll keep updating when I can.

Ecuador

2011-08-17T05:58:00.006-12:00

Next week I'll travel to Ecuador and the Llanganates National Park as part of the Search for Gold 2011 Expedition team led by Ken Hames and Jacki Hill Murphy. www.searchforgold2011.com. Below is an image of the region we're heading to and my recent blog post on the website.

So this is it. The Search for Gold 2011 Expedition is about to begin. I’m on a train gliding through rural Oxfordshire on my way back to London Town, gazing out the window and reflecting on what kind of adventure lies ahead. Just a few days left to go before I board the flight to Ecuador and join up with the rest of the team.

I’ve just picked up my share of expedition food from Mr Tinker for the trip: 24 hour survival rations, comprising of tightly packed freeze dried food. Right now I am resisting the temptation to break out the chocolate pudding. Powdered muesli… mmm tasty! I keep reminding myself at least it’s endorsed by Ranulph Fiennes. I bought a George Foreman grill once. I trusted that guy…surely Sir Ranulph wouldn’t let me down?

I’m buzzing with excitement, anticipation, and a mild amount trepidation to be fair. I know that Jacki Hill Murphy and Ken Hames have poured a lot into this trip, literally years of planning and preparation. We have amassed a wealth of information about the Llanganates, the legend of buried Inca gold, and the various treasure seekers that have tried and failed to locate it. And yet despite all this, nobody really knows exactly what to expect. And that’s part of the fun! That’s what these trips are all about. At present I’ve only met half our team but we might well call ourselves an eclectic bunch of thrill seekers, from various backgrounds, of various ages, each of us bringing something to the table.

My role on the trip is that of the official photographer. A trek of this magnitude and difficulty presents me with a conundrum over what kit to take out. We face treacherous conditions: high altitude boggy terrain, razor sharp vegetation, and freezing rain accounting for an annual precipitation of up to twice that of the Lake District. I’ve decided to take my Nikon D3s, with three lenses: two primes 20mm F/2.8 and 50mm F/1.4 and a telephoto zoom Sigma 70-300mm F/4-5.6 APO Macro. These I will carry in a Lowepro Inverse 200AW beltpack (with all weather cover!) on me at all times. It’s not ideal but the best compromise I could find. I’m interested to see how my D3s handles the weather although I will be taking some extra waterproofing in case it gets hairy.

I hope to document the trip and the team effort while working on my own photo stories along the way. I’ve heard a lot about the biodiversity, and I’m looking forward to doing some Macro photography, training my long lens on the various fauna, flora, and fungi we encounter along the way. Luckily we have two Belgian wildlife experts on board. I’m relying on them to advise us on the how cuddly these creatures are.

Part two of our expedition involves climbing the Sangay, one of the most active volcanoes in South America. That’s about all I know about it at the moment, but it does look pretty damn impressive on Google Earth. I’ll be blogging more about this as we go along.

More to come!

Big Chill Festival 2011

2011-08-14T23:38:00.005-12:00

I got sent to cover the Big Chill Festival last weekend for Blues and Soul magazine. Some of the artists I shot in no particular order... The Bullits with Lucy Liu, Norman Jay, Katy B, Gay Fish, Jessie J, Janelle Monae, Gay Fish, Jessie J, Femi Kuti, Dionne Bromfield (she was brilliant btw), Craig Charles Funk Show and Aloe Blacc (whom I also highly recommend). Blues and Soul has been going since the 60s and is now back in print after a four year absence.

Love working for these guys. I recently found out they also have a great picture archive of bands and artists shot over the years, which you can check out on their web page www.bsimagearchive.com. The collection they have is unique...and there are some cool shots there...including Bob Marley enjoying a kick about.

Search for Gold Expedition 2011

2011-03-02T07:43:00.003-12:00

On the 23rd August this year I'll be heading to Ecuador as part of the Search for Gold Expedition team. This is the first British led expedition to explore the historical and geographical aspects of the hidden Inca Gold. It will be led by Major Ken Hames, former SAS officer and TV personality and Jacki Hill-Murphy. We will look into the unexplored region of the Llanganates National Park in Ecuador, following the Inca Gold Trail.

This is a shot of Ken on our training weekend in Snowdonia last weekend. The team will hopefully be around 14 strong, each person taking on a different role. There is a strong possibility the journey will be filmed by the National Geographic Channel, so wait and see!

Mamiya 645 AFD II

2011-01-13T05:04:00.003-12:00

Recently bought my first medium format Camera Mamiya 645 AFDII. I'm pretty chuffed with it. Also got a scanner. Here are a couple of shots from my first roll. Love the quality, just need to play around with it for a while. And home development is always fun. It really forces you to take your time and appreciate the image more. They'll be loads more to come no doubt.

Recent headshot shoot

2011-01-11T05:54:00.006-12:00

Not been updating as much as I'd have liked to recently... should be plenty of new stuff coming up soon though. It promises to be an interesting year ahead. I'm setting off to Vietnam in February traveling up the country and in September I'll be off to Ecuador on an expedition: 'The Search for Gold 2011'. More info on that to come.

On top of that I'll be working hard on my stuntman project in the coming months. I'll keep posting as much as possible till then!

Some promo photos for Velvet Duke, a burlesque/comedy night hosted by my good pal Jon Campling. I went for a 6 second exposure on these shots, with the camera tripod-mounted, and colour gels on flashguns to compliment the night sky. Hoping to do some more soon, now that I have a better idea what to expect. You have to enjoy these kinda shoots. Despite the tricky conditions its a good challenge.

Middle Eastern Cooking Pilot

2010-01-11T04:31:00.009-12:00

These production stills were taken on the set of Middle Eastern Flavours - a new cooking programme hosted by Mireille Masri. The recipes are from...yep you guessed it...the Middle East and I might add the food looked fantastic.

This was also the first time I got to try out my new Jacobsen sound blimp with my Nikon D700 and it worked great. I was really pleased, especially because the shutter on the camera isn't the most discrete. There was hardly a sound to be heard even in a small kitchen with half a dozen crew members jostling for space.

I've said it before but I'll say it again I am constantly amazed by the low light capabilities of the D700. So much detail at 3200 and even 6400 ISO. Even when the noise does begin to creep in it has a nice 'filmic' quality to it, no horrible smudging.

Info: D700 with 70-200mm f/2.8 VR lens at 200mm, shutter speed 1/8s aperture f/2.8 ISO 1600.

As well as the usual award photos I took this picture of a nominee watching a promo film , using only the light available from a cinema screen. Very steady hands required! The Vibration reduction on the lens obviously helped. I love pushing my camera gear to the limit and seeing what can be acheived. Close up the lack of noise in this image is remarkable.
