How sad am I? #2

You Turned My Head Around - mosaic

I created a Flickr group to collect all the pictures of Britta singing You Turned My Head Around just because I wanted to look at a slideshow of them.

How sad am I? The answer is “very”.

All the pictures are in the group pool - Photo credits: 1. Dean and Britta at the El Rey on 2-19-08, 2. Dean & Britta @ Luna Lounge, 3. dean & britta in pittsburgh, 4. 9Jan07_britta5, 5.

I’ll write up a proper review tomorrow - I’m too knackered now - it was rather wonderful…

This is one of the photos I took with an Easter egg box for Worldwide Pinhole Day last Sunday - all were a little underexposed and needed plenty of time in some very old developer to get any sort of image out of them. Adam was grumpy at this point and refused to keep still so he was never going to be anything but a blur anyway!

There are a couple more of my photos on Flickr and a Flickr group showing other peoples better efforts.

Mark Benney is posting a stack of pictures that is like taking a walk through my past. There’s been pictures of Lush, Yo La Tengo, Magnapop and Drugstore and Buffalo Tom and Sonic Youth and Levitation…oh and Luna!

And they keep coming…

Snowy blanket

We woke up this morning to find the world covered in a beautiful snowy blanket. It’ll all be gone by now but on my cycle in to work I couldn’t help but smile and feel good about things (well at least until we got to the noisy and slushy and cold A4).

Pinhole photography

Hoover building detail

I’ve been having on and off fun lately making pinhole cameras out of bits of rubbish. They’re not quite in the league of the photographers that make me gasp - but there is something very satisfying in making a photograph using a cardboard box.

After Saturday’s piano lessons Adam and I wandered off to the nearby Hoover Factory - an Art Deco glory in west London and tried to take some pinhole pictures - this one is all we got from the day because long exposures, gale-force winds and cardboard boxes don’t make pinholery easy.

Today I rebuilt my coffee tin camera because it might cope better in the wind…
