Sorry I’ve been away for so long, its been rather hectic at adam hq! Starting my new life in new house has been a rollercoaster with its low being today.

I had a break-in :-( Some nasty chaps sole my camera bag full of my trusty 2 lenses and memory cards…its so odd, I feel intruded, yet odly liberated that the digital camera has now left me, no longer can I produce sharp nice images! Yay i HAVE to go to film now! I have no choice, and my insurance doesnt kick in until tomorrow! So I cant afford new digital gear

So I finally have the kick up the bottom required, as soon as I get my window boarded up, im off for some film! I may need a scanner too!

So with a mixture of upset and freedom I present my last ever digital shots, RIP Canon20d and lovely scratched lenses, this truly is a new start

I certainly feel I am lost in focus, finally, the art side of the brain won me over in the bath last night (must be the new conditioner) I really think I shall sell up my digital items, some time a few years ago I drifted away from my art of the time into ‘photography’ and I began producing dark odd spooky images…all the time drifting more and more away from what was my art of the time.

…I think its time to return fully, the art side has won. Time to return to emotion, feeling, stories, goosebumps, shivers and ‘real’…people wont like them as much as my standard put somebody in a spooky place take a photo and photoshop diddle it, but I have to make my soul happy, so I return to images like:

everything in this magic link

Ill be so poor with the film costs! :-(

Its an idea I’ve wanted to do for some time, the image here isn’t quite right yet, i need another go. It is so gratifying sometimes though when an image requires a lot of hard work. I can stick an image online that I’ve quickly fired of with a girl posing against a brick wall or something and the thousands come in and adore.

Then I can post something, something that has taken three lads spending 2 hours carrying a heavy armchair to the sea, something involving pain, extreme coldness and wetness, and nobody could give a doo dah. Well never mind, here we are…not quite there yet, im just rating it 64%

Hope you enjoy!

I really don’t like my work, as I’ve rambled before, I just cant get near what I see, or what I want to create, either money, severe weather conditions or the law tends to get in the way.

..but Im getting closer and closer, this one is hitting a 75% happy in my brain, which is one of the nearest I’ve got! Hope you enjoy it :-)

It was making me rather unhappy.

So I’ve jumped right in at the deep end, I’ve absolutely filled my schedule with art…which is working out good and bad…more on the bad for another post (its still brewing, it involves ‘proper; lighting and a sharp lens :-( )

So I present something new, I do hope you enjoy :-)

Safe dreams voyagers

So I present the same image from both sides of my brain

The science side of the brain thinks he should buy a nice new sharp lens for some upcoming proper work, the other side drifts, drifts to the sea lapping the shore, a warm wind rustling palms, the stars gently shimmering above…….

Sometimes the magic just isnt there, you feel the inner fire, the inner desire to create something, you see it in your head….but when you get down to it and start to actually make it you know instantly its not right. Above was just one of those many times ( and believe me there are MANY)

Maybe its part of my ever ending quest for perfection, im never quite sure what I want to create, I just have a whipser of a fog about it. And sometimes its sooo fustrating when things dont work out, or something/somebody/weather gets in the way. (Most of the things I do require INTENSE discomfort for the people in the photos so its hard finding willing people!…I may have to do it myself :-( )

But we must continue and continue….. for if we never give up, we never loose!

 I seem to be stuck in a strange place. A part of my brain desires to produce beautiful crisp photos full of vivid colour and crispness, well lit and perfection on tour. But I have another side, maybe the romantic side thats full of emotion, memories, a love of old photos and their hopes and dreams, the idea of capturing a feeling, a mood, atmosphere and emotion.

So here we are, I think this falls half way between the two, but verging over to romance. I do you enjoy :-) Have a supertastic tingly day�
