Easter egg roll
I've had quite enough of puns today, thank you very much. Easter on Primrose Hill, nothing too eggxotic, but still, quite an eggstraordinary eggsperience! There was the Eggscalibur in the fancy eggdress competition, eggxhilarating games like eggxtreme egg rolling and three-l-egged run - oh you're in the way, better make an eggscape! All rather eggcellent,
Operation Vendetta
George Orwell's 1984 leads to V for Vendetta leads to a bunch of Guy Fawkes-masked activists marching on the Houses of Parliament from Trafalgar Square this 5th of November. Lots of discontent, it seems, about the government's failure to serve its people, the dismal state of the economy and the environment. Also something about
A game of ping pong
At Central Saint Martins. There was another lady prowling about the campus with a DSLR; this being an arts college I suppose people'd be used to seeing weird photographers lurking around

I wasn't expecting to get away with much when I took my camera out of my bag, but the outcome has proven me wrong. Bolder, closer, and hopefully better? And I was hardly shooting deliberately,
Fog along the Thames
Ah, fog. It was either a river shoot, or the deer. I couldn't pull myself out of bed in time for the commute to Richmond Park, so Waterloo it was. I also didn't feel like lugging my full kit around so I brought along just the X100. Typical touristy haunts around the London Eye
Anti-Islamic film protest
"You cannot pass through here." One of the stewards stepped to the side and blocked my way, "You have to go round the other side." "But I'm not passing through," I told him. "I'm here to cover the event." A moment later, I was receiving a briefing from their media person, and then let loose
