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...)

A goddess!
Photoshoot of a Beautiful Professional Ballet Dancer & Swimsuit Bikini Model.
Shot with a Canon 5D Mark II.
She was headed off to join a new ballet company, so we shot these the day before she left.
Very pretty with a pixie haircut.
Tall, thin, fit, and classically beautiful!
It was quite windy that day!
She had sandy blonde hair and pretty green/brown eyes.
Modeling a hoodie!
A classic ballerina beauty!
Modeling a baseball cap/trucker hat.
A perfect sunny day on a most scenic beach!
Shot at the beautiful El Matador State Beach in Malibu, California.
The reasons why I'm so impressed with these headphones is the way they fold up (be careful with those hinges though) and the adjustable headband actually functions. Really nice piece.

I met Anil today when I popped into the city centre. He was sat on a bench on one of the main streets and looked miles away.
It was quite a brief encounter, and Anil was something of a mysterious character.
When I asked him what he does, he replied absolutely nothing, and didn't seem overly keen to chat, which I respected.
I took a few shots, and went to show him one on the camera when he held up the moo card I had given him and told me- "I wont look at it now, I'll look at it later".
I thanked Anil for letting me take his portrait and left it at that.
Hope you do check it out Anil and that you like the shot. Was a pleasure meeting you.

A little chinese girl found the Summer Palace as photogenic as I did.

I made this little guy laugh and now this shot makes me laugh.
Hope it's a cure for your Monday blues, too!

About workin' all summer just to try an' earn a dollar
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
'Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues"
