I have had this vision for a while. And I knew Sean Graham (Pro Dancer/Choreographer) would be the perfect model for it.
The concept is Strength. The combined strength of a strong horse and a dancer surrendering to each other.
I really hope you guys like it! I will share with you that this is the toughest shoot I have completed so far. The model was two hours late, and he discovered after about 10-15 minutes that he is in fact allergic to horses. When I say he looked like Will Smith in Hitch (after 25 min. and we had close down the shoot) I am really not kidding!
Sweet, sweet surrender
Live, live without care
Like a fish in the water
Like a bird in the air
i love that song by john denver. taklks about living life without stress - a cafefree life!
have a great weekend my friends!

It truly is a magnificent sculpture which, if you get the chance, to see it for yourself. The vision and workmanship is outstanding. It's incredible from any angle. The up-lighting is delightful, although I only managed to see this effect for a few moments.

My YouTube Video: Knife Angel. Derby Cathedral. Oct 2019

Rachel Webb, whose son Tom was 22 years old when he was stabbed and killed in St Peter's Street, Derby, by a 16 year old boy in January 2016, has been instrumental in bringing the Angel to Derby. She supported a knife surrender held across Derbyshire and knives from this were donated towards the creation of this sculpture.
The knife Angel has been created as a National monument against violence and aggression at the British Ironworks Centre in Oswestry and is a memorial to those whose lives have been affected by knife crime. It is a 27ft high sculpture, which Alfie Bradley has designed and created single-handedly using over 100,000 knives surrendered and collected in nationwide amnesties in 2015/2016. The angel began it's tour around the UK in 2018 when it was housed outside of Liverpool Cathedral for December and January in order to raise awareness of the impact of knife crime on society, the victims and their families and friends.
It is currently on a city tour of the UK.
Knife crime is rising across the country. The Knife Angel's presence in derby is very much a symbol of the hard work of partners and communities across Derbyshire to halt this rise.
Derbyshire Police are spearheading a multi agency campaign called Project Zao, which aims to prevent causalities and stop venerable youngsters from seeing violence as the answer. It targets those who carry knives and delivers a hard hitting educational package to thousands of young people across the county.
All 43 national police forces, the Home Office, anti-violence groups across the UK and hundreds of families who have been affected by knife crime are all strongly supporting the Knife Angel. Relatives of those killed by knife crime were invited to engrave the blades with names and messages for their loved ones as part of the sculpture.
The Knife Angel is a symbol of defiance and change, shining a spotlight on Britain's knife crime problem and its impact on communities, families and individuals.
The Angel; is helping to raise awareness of violent crime and helping young people understand the reasons not to carry knives.
Please show your support and join us in standing up to knife crime!
The ball always wins.
This was taken this morning at the Bear Lake West golf course. Me and E went out early so that we could get back early enough to get to Raspberry Days.
Summers at Bear Lake...
We must in tears
Unwind a love knit up in many years.
In this last kiss I here surrender thee
Back to thyself, so thou again art free;
Thou in another, sad as that, resend
The truest heart that lover e'er did lend.

In the late Third Age of Middle Earth, the forces of Rohan and the Dunlendings of Dunland clashed near the White Mountains of Rohan. Led by Helm Hammerhand, the Rohirrim fought numerous skirmishes with the wicked men under Wulf. A siege of Helm’s Deep by the Dunlendings left Hammerhand’s sons and followers dead, only to be saved by his nephew, Frealaf Hildeson, who’s army slayed Wulf, forcing Dunland to surrender.

Apologies for the lack of posts, finally got snow here and wanted to shoot this for a while. This is also my first post as a member of @lotrlug ! Horse design by @amazebricks .
Taken with Bronica ETRS SLR, 75mm, Shanghai GP3 100 film, hand processed and scanned using Canon 9000f
a winter view of beeston castle Cheshire perched on an isolated crag overlooking the Cheshire plain ,it was built on the orders of ranulf earl of chester in the 1220's
it was garrisoned by parliament in the civil war , and captured in 1643
the legend is that royalist captain Thomas Sandford and eight musketeers scaled the crag at night and forced the startled garrison to surrender
looking at it , this seems a little unlikely and perhaps treachery played a part
the governor , retired cheese dealer thomas steele was allowed to march his troops out and return to nanwich
sadly his superiors there took a dim view of his actions and had him shot behind nantwich church !
Our old garden seat surrendering to nature. I was playing around with ETTR and histograms to get the widest dynamic range possible. Man, there is a lot to learn about getting the shot you want.
THANK YOU ALL MY KIND FLICKR FRIENDS.
YOUR FAVS, COMMENTS AND INVITATIONS ARE VERY MOTIVATING AND APPRECIATED.
Comparison.
A word we are all too familiar with, as artists and emotional, conceptual beings. We analyse. What can I do to be a better person? They, he, she is better than me. What's 'better'? and from who's perspective is one person a successor of life over another being. Over the past few months I've been profusely comparing, to the point I sit and wonder why I am so against my own life. I am against my own life because I'm comparing. It's a vicious yet contagious circle. Through the winter months and towards the end of 2015 I'd almost given up on my dreams. As many will have felt those awful feelings before, it's less of failure and more of a serial questioning. What do I need to do next to get to where I want to be. I want to be where my peers are, and how have they got there?
One day I was sat completing outstanding work for clients and I realised. Every time I'd get myself a drink or make myself food. I was walking in the same direction. That was up towards a room (my office) that I'd been sat in for days on end. Days when sometimes I wouldn't see daylight. No wonder I was comparing, I wanted a life that I wasn't even trying to live. I'm sure I've had these feelings before, back when my life was heading in the 'wrong' direction. There is no wrong direction though. There is only a direction in which we, as personal beings, can enable changes. And that's when I knew I had to.
I decided to surrender. Not my dreams but all my fears and comparisons. I don't trust myself when I'm in that state of mind, and therefore I give up on it.

many of the animals at the shelter are there because of owner surrender...sometimes they grow tired of the animal, sometimes it is due to circumstances such as losing a job or relocating and can't afford good care of the animal or can't find a place that allows pets...and then there are times when a loving owner has become ill...too ill and can't care for the animal...as is the case here.... a healthcare worker brings the pup in surrender for the owner.
This pup was quickly re-homed.
