ups and downs


     Oh i don't know where to start really this afternoon has been emotionally challenging for me i entered a comp and got my hopes up that i could possibly win but no someone else did and didn't even get a minor prize . Yes i know this shouldn't bother me its just a comp but to me it wasn't just any comp it was to get closer to my hero the man in the photo . I know so many people who have meet him and spent time with him and after being a huge fan of his for over 20yrs and having some of my biggest life challenges that have happened at the same time as some of his i feel a bond and connection to him silly i know , even some have said this is bordering on obsessive but i don't see it that way .  Music has played a major part in my life and along with my art it always will ,
        My partner doesn't understand my love of music and the fact that i have hidden my llove of foo's for so long cause of the things he says about music but resently i have said bugger i'am who i'am and am not hiding it any more and its causing tention . Am still feeling lost in do i belong here or back in the uk but then i remember i haven't been there in 20yrs and most of what i know is gone in my home town so i feel even more lost ....

My Hero


                                                  My Hero 


        This is a true story of Mother’s Sacrifice during the Japan Earthquake.
After the Earthquake had subsided, when the rescuers reached the ruins of a young woman’s house, they saw her dead body through the cracks. But her pose was somehow strange that she knelt on her knees like a person was worshiping; her body was leaning forward, and her two hands were supporting by an object. The collapsed house had crashed her back and her head.

With so many difficulties, the leader of the rescuer team put his hand through a narrow gap on the wall to reach the woman’s body. He was hoping that this woman could be still alive. However, the cold and stiff body told him that she had passed away for sure.
He and the rest of the team left this house and were going to search the next collapsed building. For some reasons, the team leader was driven by a compelling force to go back to the ruin house of the dead woman. Again, he knelt down and used his had through the narrow cracks to search the little space under the dead body. Suddenly, he screamed with excitement,” A child! There is a child! “
The whole team worked together; carefully they removed the piles of ruined objects around the dead woman. There was a 3 months old little boy wrapped in a flowery blanket under his mother’s dead body. Obviously, the woman had made an ultimate sacrifice for saving her son. When her house was falling, she used her body to make a cover to protect her son. The little boy was still sleeping peacefully when the team leader picked him up.
The medical doctor came quickly to exam the little boy. After he opened the blanket, he saw a cell phone inside the blanket. There was a text message on the screen. It said,” If you can survive, you must remember that I love you.” This cell phone was passing around from one hand to another. Every body that read the message wept. ” If you can survive, you must remember that I love you.” Such is the mother’s love for her child!!

            All people dream but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous people, for they may act their dream with open eyes to make it possible.

Before you judge my life or my character ... Walk in my shoes, walk the path I have traveled, live my sorrow, my doubts, my fear, my pain, my joy, my laughter!!! Remember Judge not lest ye be judged. Everyone has their own story; and then you can judge me!

more ideas coming in mind

So after reading the review of the foo fighters performance at T in the park i started to remember the simular things to there work and my own .
  There not ones  who are  reliant on programming software and synth wizardry but more  happy to rely on analogue equipment and layers and layers of blazing guitar riffery, which with my self am not one of those photographers who are reliant on photoshop or over the top editing but very simple editing tools which came with my laptop some images haven't even been touched am proud to say all due to knowing my capablities and in camera settings , hence why i do believe a shoot with them very fitting . 

Big Project

so i have launched myself into a new BIG project its a big and adventurous i need every single person to help pull this off . I want to do a James Minchin III style shoot of the foo fighters . I have set up a plan on a site called Big Plan and have uploaded a few of my Metallica images i was lucky enough to take so heres some links to my facebook like page and big plan page .
