La Cabalgata, The Three Kings Procession

As I mentioned in an Earlier post recently all over Spain, there were processions, celebrating the day the three kings brought baby jesus gifts. On this day is also when gifts are usually exchanged in Spain as oposed to xmas. Fortunately this year I was able to attend the processions in Spain and thus here are a few pics. Im sorry if they seem a bit few but its 4 am! lol more will be posted later on in the day :)

Inspirational Lighting!

So as i was reading through my daily blogs, i read one particular post which has inspired me to try a new lighting technique! :D. When i read the blog i think the writer was doing it out of fun, however it has inspired me to take it on a more serious aproach! I have no idea how the images will turn out, they may be all cool and funky...or they may just look quite normal, i have no idea! Thus i will shortly be experimenting this experiment so look forward to pictures soon! :D. Thats all im going to say for now lest my idea be stolen or borrowed and my initiative of surprise be taken from me!

On a side note, I would also like to mention the creation of another blog, The Vegetarian Student (yes yes i can imagine some of you who know me shall laugh at the mention of this). The I was inspired to create this blog this morning as I toiled away in the kitchen learning new recipes to take back with me to London and university so that i may survive on my own for another few months. And thus as i was taught in the kitchen the extent of my ignorance in such an environment struck me! Ive always enjoyed cooking but never had any idea how, or been able to find simple or easy to manage resources to help me do so. Upon realizing this, I decided i would take my teachings and share them with you all! Lest another poor student find himself in such a position. And yes there ARE plenty of great resources out there on the web, but many of them are for the housewife or the well equiped kitchen, and lots of the simpler ones deal with meat! And for a vegetarian like me its a big no no! So! ladies and gentlemen may I introduce to you The Vegetarian Student!

Loughborough All Over again

Hello Ladies and gentlemen, i would like to present to you the last remaining pictures of my weekend in loughborough, it was only a few so most of them are here, but the rest can as usual be viewed on my flickr. On another note Thursday marks my return to London, and thus uni. Hopefully I will be able to keep up the habit of daily, or almost daily blogposts, even if i cant keep up with the photos (which once again I hopefully shall). I have a couple of projects already on the horizon ready for me to tackle (which means if i hope to keep up to date i need to get my India pics online ASAP). The projects include a cementary photowalk, and one, possibly two studio shoots (if youre interested in modelling leave me a message! london area only please!) in the comming week, and deffinately more as the year progresses as after some brainstorming my partner and myself have come up with some fashion oriented shoots :). Well enough blabbing on my part, here are some pictures to enjoy! :D

A weekend in Loughborough

So a few weeks ago i made a trip to loughborough to visit my cousins and of course i took advantage and took loads of family pics! :D but also took several of the beautifull scenery out there. Theres not really much for me to say about it, and as they say a picture makes a thousand words, specially more so a photograph, so i shall let them do the talking. As usual they are available on my flickr

Happy Three Kings and India!

I would just like to wish you all a Happy Three Kings day! For all of you who dont know apparently this is the day the three kings brought gifts to baby jesus or something like that. Basically its the christmas day in spain, when all the gifts are given out, rather than on the 24/25th. They also do processions of floats from all things disney, three kings, and anything else children might enjoy. Of course i took advantage to photograph them yesterday, pics will be up soon :), but for today i shall leave you with a batch of photos from my trip to India :) Enjoy
