I over estimated the reflective properties of water. The scratched baking tray is still visible. It gives some texture to the image. I kinda like it.

Sorry, I haven't been on Flickr at all since Tuesday, as my friend from university, Natalie (Feelin' Blue) came over to visit me for a few days and we really were busy exploring the Malvern hills and playing with the dogs. I'm back at university for a few days now and not so busy, so I'll catch up with everyone again soon!
This shot of Barney and his new friend Natalie, playing this afternoon in the field behind my house, made me giggle. I taught Barney to leap up in the air when I say "UP!" and raise my hand, over the last Easter holidays and he was happy to do the trick for my friend too :) It's funny, I hadn't realized how high off the ground he gets when he does this, till he did it with my friend today and I took some photos...
Who said that eggs are used for eating only?…
For a change… Can we do an experiment with an egg?
Kids were astonished to see an egg bouncing, during their Science Surfers class.
They did it…
They demonstrated their scientific abilities, by making bubbles out of vinegar and soda for science experiment. This made them surprised and excited, to find out that they could carry out experiments by themselves.
Creativity has no ends. The Cool Architects designed their own buildings, and had it made out of different colors.
We further sorted shapes, learnt phonic "N" vocabulary and pencil control on numbers.
We had such fun.
Learning was awesome, as kids revised phonic ‘P’ by making popcorn craft.
Kids exploited their numeracy skills by matching numbers on popsicles to the numbers on the flash cards and ended up with a game of shape matching.
We landed at 07:00, bouncing on Japanese tarmac, taxiing to a Japanese terminal for a Japanese airbridge connected to the plane controlled by an actual Japanese person. In short, we had arrived in Japan.
We were through immigration, collected the bags and through customs in less than an hour and walking though the exit door, there was a smart gentleman with our name on a board, ready to sweep us to his car and then into the city to our first hotel.
In the end we had an hour's drive to the hotel, along dual carriageways and then onto an elevated road for the final part to the hotel, twisting and turning through the skyscrapers, making ot seem to me that we were travelling through a real life Sim City. What really surprised me is that the traffic didn't seem as crazy as i had expected. But in Bladerunner style, there were huge neon signs and video screens everywhere.
We arrived at the hotel, in the shadow of the Sky Tree, more of that later, and once we had our cases we entered the building, and rode the lift to the top floor where the lobby was. We handed over the voucher for the rooms, were given our keys, and so at nine in the morning, we were in our rooms, with three days in one of the world's biggest cities to fill.
I had noticed that there was a branch of Denny's nearby, so wanting coffee and breakfast, I thought that would be an easy place to have our first meal in Japan.
We took the lift down to the street then ventured out into the hectic world of Tokyo to walk to the end of the block then turned right, crossed the road and went up the stairs, to be confronted by Denny's, but the Japanese version. But they spoke English, and after looking at the pictures in the menu, I chose a Japanese Brunch with a soda, which turned out to be liquid sugar it was so sweet.
We were heavily jetlagged, tired and confused. We walk to the nearby bridge over the river, just looking at people, traffic and trains which filled the cityscape scene, it was all new, foreign and wonderful. I snapped everything that moved. And stuff that didn't.
I could have walked and snapped all day, but it was suggested that we should try to nap. And so with a heavy heart I walked with Jools and Jen back to the hotel, where we all snoozed until late in the afternoon, by which time it had clouded over and a steady rain had begun to fall, bringing the neon-rich night early, and creating a wonderfully photogentic scene right outside my window, I sat at the window and took shots of it as soon as I was up.
A while later we met in the lobby and decided, or rather I decided that we would go for a walk down the street so I could snap the lights, people and traffic in the rain. I was so exited I thought I might explode. The air was full of the smells of exotic cooking, it all smelt wonderful. But what to choose?
A way down the street was a small chain steak restaurant, they had seats, so we thought we would be brave and go in.
We were met by much bowing, and shown to three seats at a counter. We order steaks by type and weight, as well as a bottle of house red. Before being cooked, the chef cut the steaks from a larger piece and presented each one to us for inspection before being cooked.
The steaks were serves on metal skillets, so hot it made the corn the steak was served with pop. It was one of the best steaks I have ever had, wonderfully tender and seasoned. We weren't the centre of attention as I thought, people just came in, rodered and ate, just as we did. I got the chef and servers to pose before we left, doing the whole tourist thing.
The hotel had a rooftop bar andgarden, so after walking back, we go up order beers and sit in the shelter of an overhanging roof, drinking and looking at the Sky Tree all lit up about a mile away, it's top lost in clouds. It was all so alien and wonderful. I have another beer and take yet more shots.
So... Walking the dog with Cook out on Sharpham moor, our attention was drawn by beams of light coming under a bridge and catching stones on the bottom of a fast flowing stream.
Some of the acrobats at Ringling Brothers Circus rode these large inflated tubes which they used to bounce around the ring. I had never seen these tire-like devices before and I'd love to see what it takes to ride one.

The work I create draws from a broad range influences: the motion studies of Eadweard J. Muybridge, traditional hand drawn animation, and early 20th century embroidery. I am drawn to images which make the normally invisible, visible: scientific motion studies of animals, fluid mechanics, and the microscopic and subatomic world.
When animators create movement through their drawings they deliberately distort shapes. They flatten, elongate, and squash their drawings to make them more real, to make you feel the effects of gravity, weight, and impact. How can distortion make things see more real?
In creating my work I aim to provoke certain questions: What does it mean to play today? How can a red rubber ball compete with near total immersion in a virtual, super real world?
