A crippling ice storm can have its aesthetic side . . . if you just let it be. View large for best texture effect. It may surprise you, surging out of its thumbnail.

We're getting ready for winter in the Dales. I took this on one of the frosty mornings that makes you glad to be alive a couple of years ago. After looking at it I thought that it was perfect for monochrome

We're delighted to end our year of gigs with the particularly fine Filthy Six. Fresh from a live session for the BBC last week, they promise to bring the house down (or even the Church...) with their rip roaring dancefloor blend of jazz funk and boogaloo. Boogie until 2am and end the year in filthy style!

The Filthy Six are the most exciting, authentic soul jazz outfit in the UK today and have established themselves as one of the finest live acts around. Their hip-shakingly powerful mixture of jazz, funk and boogaloo is in the finest traditions of 60's Blue Note artists such as Lou Donaldson, Cannonball Adderley, Grant Green and Jimmy McGriff. Equally at home playing the sweat-drenched dancehalls of club land or the more traditional jazz room setting, their music appeals to both dance floor groovers and chin-scratching jazz heads alike.

"THESE GUYS HAVE GOT ALL THE LICKS. SOUL JAZZ HOW WE LIKE IT, ROUGH, RUGGED AND PLAYED BY GUYS TOTALLY ON TOP OF THEIR GAME. A VERY EXCITING ADDITION TO THE UK SCENE" - The Craig Charles Funk And Soul Show, BBC 6 Music

"THEIR HEADY MIX OF SOUL JAZZ FLAVOURS AND BAD ASS BOOGALOO...WRAPPED UP WITH A VIBRANT ENERGY AND SENSE OF HUMOUR...KEEPS THE CROWD HOOKED FROM THE MOMENT THEY WALK ON STAGE...A SURE FIRE BET EVERY TIME" - Dom Servini (Wah Wah 45s / Shook) - London Jazz Festival

“*****” – 3 Weeks Magazine, Edinburgh Fringe Festival

“A MUTHA OF A SOUL FOOD PLATE… KILLER HORNS AND COOKED JUST RIGHT ORGAN… LOVE ‘EM AND YOU’LL NEVER LEAVE ‘EM!” - Hammond Beat

Was hoping to get this on film, but the last 15 minutes of the day saw cloud cover the sun - so just missed out.
