This is a restaurant scene, which I photographed in Nottingham with my X-T2 camera and 35mm prime lens (50mm full frame equivalent).
I was aiming for a Jack Vettriano look for my image.

It's taking over
There's no escape
Over your shoulder
Don't look away
Get your mind right here
For something
You ain't ever seen
You better get moving
Ready or not
'S'about to go down here it comes now
You better get moving
Ready or not
'S'about to go down here it comes now
Get ready
Oh-whoa-oh
Oh-whoa-oh-oh
Get ready
Oh-whoa-oh
Oh-whoa-oh-oh
The time is right now
No standing still
Only one choice now
Battle uphill
Shooting from Alexandra Palace, North London
Alexandra Palace is an historic entertainment venue in Alexandra Park, North London. It is located between Muswell Hill and Wood Green, in the north of the city. It was originally opened in 1873 but was rebuilt in 1875 following a destructive fire.
In the recent years many “Reception Halls” became common in the villages of Cyprus, which cater for the typical Cypriot wedding receptions of 2-3 thousand guests. (I refer to the villages!)
These photos here show one such a hall getting prepared for a wedding dinner. Thousands of plastic chairs are stacked on the tables while workers are cleaning the floor.
We finally saw the Shepard Fairey "Imperfect Union" show on its final day at the Merry Karnowski Gallery in LA.
My hair is getting silly long now and i am so enjoying it especially in this colder weather. Starting to get better at styling it although it rapidly disappearing from the front that could cause a few problems in the future but I can always go for fringe pieces or toppers.
Such a cosy outfit this turned out to be have to admit ive got the jumper on tonight with a shorter black skirt and tights and his slippers! not a great look from the ankles down lol
As winter draws nearer and daylight savings drew to a close, I once again find myself in the end-of-the-year hibernation that seems to have become an annual occurrence. Certainly a struggle to find the desire to want to shoot anything when darkness comes quick, the days get chillier, and probably most importantly, a lack of stuff I actually want to bag. So many things I would otherwise enjoy shooting have become nocturnal, and everything else is too far away to justify - be it time, distance, or cost to get there being the killer. A little burnout from a long year is the cherry on top of it all.
But, all is not lost. All it takes is the right thing to prod me and I'm out in the hot seat once again. A little heads-up that CN A407 had the venerable IC1000 leading it earlier in the day made me decide for once it would be worth jumping out of the house and taking a peek. I needed to run some errands anyway, why not have a look? Happily enough, I ran across the train as it was pulling up to Leverett Junction for a recrew. It was only a short wait until they were ready to go and moving - and I just couldn't resist going for the classic twin elevators of Leverett proper for a shot.
IC1000, class leader of the Illinois Central SD70s, has become the most coveted of all 26 all-black units today. Earlier this year, while in for its usual maintenance, the 1000 was given a gift: new white reflective tape to replace the ~17 year old yellow tape on the sill and footwells.
With a paint scheme as incredibly simple as the IC New Image "Death Star" is, even the smallest changes make a big difference - and wow, what a difference the white sill makes here. The addition of the AC and the - thankfully - tastefully small PTC antennae on the roof of the unit means you wouldn't fool anyone into thinking it would fit perfectly into the 1990s again... but it's pretty damn close. Although unlikely, it would be a real treat to see some more of the SD70s regain their white sills again. One can dream, anyway.
I've not had the best luck catching the IC1000 after its re-silling, so to get a chance to nab it again was a real delight. Some would complain about the CN-dressed IC1009 trailing, but I didn't terribly mind. No matter what trails, I'll never complain about getting to see the 1000 in the lead!
Hey Flickr,
Its been about 15 weeks since my last post here. I know I've had these extended breaks from photography and social media in the past, but this was different. The last few weeks have been tumultuous to say the least. Starting from a major health scare for my dad to sitting one of the most challenging academic exam I've had to sit so far, which I did yesterday. I'm glad that this is over... for now at least, till life throws in another challenge that is.
So the story above equates to me spending no time behind the lens. Well, I've not been able to spend any time with my little boy and the wife let alone the camera. So now that this over, I plan to catchup on both these fronts.
I've been admiring your work during this quiet time and have seen some of you take your work to a new level which obviously inspires me to get out and push the limits. Hopefully I can.
I don't have any new shots to come back with, so here is one I've had processed and sitting in my vault for quiet some time now.
Hope you guys like it.
The title stems from the G20 summit Brisbane is hosting next month. The race is on to present the best of the city to the top world leaders in 3 weeks time.
Thanks to all of you for your time, comments and favs. Truly appreciated..

Kerala, Thrissur, 2022
Nothing particularly exciting here...except for the fact that our van's odometer rarely works, except for when it's really cold and only until the thing warms up.
I figured I'd get a photo to preserve this rare occasion :D
slight change in temperature its getting somewhat chilly in the evenings so what better way t stay warm other than putting some clothes on. Than to snuggle into a faux fur coat,
This is from last nights boudoir set the whole aim was to see how convincing the lace front wig was.
