Here's a challenge

C3 photography group met up today.

The challenge is to take 20 photos in 2 hours in Manchester center. Andy took part too with our compact camera.

I was very interesting as we went round Manchester together but ended up with quite different photographs.

A different Kind of View


My brother-in-law got married today, I took along my camera kit and ended up being in photographer mode all day. So I won't be doing that again.

They are very happy with my photos though, which is quite a relief.

A List Star

Spent Saturday afternoon helping out my friend Ian as an assistant photographer. Sir Ian McKellen was unveiling a blue plaque for Stockport Garrick. He arrived with Anthony Cotton(Corri) and was treated to a tour of the threatre. After inveiing the plaque, followed by the Mayoress unveiling a plaque to commemorate Sir Ian unveiling a plaque. It was back to The Garrick for a history of the threatre, follwed by a unformal Q&A with Sir Ian. He also stayed to have a chat after too.
He's very down to earth and very talented.

A tiring but throughoutly enjoyable day.

A big thanks to Ian for asking me to help.
