Made from rubbish I found in Brick Lane for the purpose of participating at a Street Art Exhibition in Shoreditch.
Whoever discovered it after l left it in the street was welcome to take it home with them.
Yesterday once the pressure of the BBC was off I wanted to shoot someone else (having sorted my camera settings) and I immediately bumped into this guy.
He was walking through the centre of the city with 3 or 4 other guys (who had plenty of tattoos visible) and I picked this guy out on account of his earrings and general demeanour.
He was more than happy to pose for me, he spot with a Scottish accent (like myself) and I sued him if he was from Glasgow which he was. He lives in Charing Cross which is right in the city centre.
He told me his name was Stevie and he is with a band called Funeral for a Friend who were playing a gig in Nottingham on the 27th.
I used the background to a computer game simulator that was setup in the centre of town to add some colour behind him.
I'm counting this shot as a final shot in my 100 Strangers project rather than the start of a new project because I feel I need to rethink my plans before starting the next series.
Thanks to all who have followed my first ever portrait series, I value each person I have come into contact with through the 100 Strangers group and I look forward to continuing with the group and with my own development of street portraits and pushing myself.
This is shot 100+1 (the final shot) in my 100 Strangers Project. See all my shots so far.

I met Rodney walking in the park. He told me that he had travelled a good deal and liked taking photographs of animals in the wild, but not in zoos. He had been to borneo many times and was very enthusiastic, talking to me about the animals he has photographed there. More recently he had stopped his travelling and returned to to place of his birth in the UK. He was happy to have his photograph taken and we carried on the conversation as we talked.
This picture is #11 in my 100 strangers project. Find out more about the project and see pictures taken by other photographers at the 100 Strangers Flickr Group page

Fed up with snow, Joe jumped in his truck and headed down to the coast. The temperature may still be cold but the sun and blue sky makes up for that!
Posting outtakes from this year's Independence Day shoot. This shot wasn't bad, just kind of boring.
I have worked with Chelsea on many occasions - we did this fun roller skating shoot in her garden and a road near her house.

I have been without a camera for a month due to some essential repairs that Canon needed to make. Before sending the camera off I was aware of two things; firstly that my camera had a technical issue and secondly that I was uninspired to use it at all. Having been forced to take some time out I feel better for taking the break. With my first free time since getting my camera back I decided to head into Newcastle city centre. I saw my 94th stranger Robert walking towards where I was standing and I thought what the hell just ask him. Its been a while since I posted anything never mind a stranger for my project but I'm glad I asked him as I think he has a good strong face. I asked him if he was from Newcastle to which he told me that he was here from London to study. He said he liked the city but struggled at first to understand the accent. I thanked him for being in my project and explained that he was the first person I had photographed for some time. This project has taken me ages and I still have 6 more strangers to shoot but I'm not going to rush it now.

Just inside the front door of my local pharmacy, the Lotto Guy, who previously wore only sunglasses, has been given some seasonal garb. The pharmacy's newest employee, a very friendly and personable Latino man, agreed to be photographed as he adjusted the angle of the Lotto Guy's hat, turned backwards hipster-style, of course. (Unposed.)
I don't know exactly what it is about the Lotto Guy, but I'm rather fascinated by him. I think it's because he appears in a life-size format... (He also appears on TV, but as I have never been a TV viewer, I don't see him there.) Here is my collection of shots featuring the Lotto Guy in his various manifestations.
Also, check out my neighbor Trish Mayo's set, entitled "Adventures of Lotto Man."
There is something about adorning statues (or other "figures," such as this), even devotional ones, such as Buddhist deities, that fascinates me. Perhaps it is the surprise factor--one never knows what to expect. Then there is the incongruity of "dressing" some object that was not created for that purpose--such as Bruxelles' "Manneken Pis," which is actually a fountain, but which has hundreds of costumes that have been created expressly for it, many of which it "wears." (I have been to Bruxelles many times, but have never run into the Manneken Pis, for some reason. Must be my karma...)

For the group six word story.
Sandra Dee was on the northwest corner of Randolph and Michigan. She's been out here about seven months. Right now she stays at Pacific Garden Mission. if she doesn't get there by 7:40, she has to find another place to go. she says the food is not that great but she's just grateful for what she gets (she said that numerous times). She rides the bus or train if she's unable to stay at the shelter. Some people said she could stay with them on Lower Wacker, but they got kicked out by the police. She also stayed in a park and was told to leave at 11. is looking for a job--wants a job so bad. I gave her some temp agency addresses and she started crying. In talking with her, you would never know what she's been through. She had such a wonderful attitude. When she was 9 she saved her father's life. "My mom said, 'go down and get your dad'". So she went down by the elevator to get him, and when she arrived, some guys had guns and were going to kill her dad. Fortunately, these same guys knew her and gave her quarters from time to time. "I started crying, saying 'please don't kill my dad!' and they didn't. That was the last time I saw him. I don't know if he's dead or alive. Despite all this, she really wants to work. She does janitorial work and cleaning. "I've given back before", she said, "And when I get a job I'm going to give back some more. You can't stop a woman like Sandra Dee.
Goodness. All three of my models seem to have had a wardrobe malfunction at exactly the same time, where their bikini bottoms have all fallen down to their ankles. Karen lost her entire suit!
