Ideas come at the best times

As we all know insperation can come at some weird times of the day and in the weirdest ways but I think this is what just makes us who we are manic photographers and with it must be said a slight case of the crazy to get are views across in a single or series of images,
This ideas can come at the breakfest table with a cup of coffee ( idea was born for running on water ) or at 4 am when every body should be asleep but were up all excited about the prospects of a idea that we can create :-) ( when I finally decided on the project for the show in June ) but when ever or where ever we get these ideas we should follow on them if not for public viewing for yourself and this is the case with the latest project I have set out to do with a series of images that are in the pipe lines as I write this, that will be presented in June at the cursterd factory in Digbeth Birmingham,
when we came up with the idea of the gallery about a year ago it was a real shock to the system but a good one been able to make this possible will be just amazing experience for myself and the other involved such as Ben Turner ( sport and fashion Photographer with a eletic style will be one to look out for ) Pal Palmer ( with great design methods in the work she creates, is one of the ones I'm looking foward to viewing myself ) to Jon Edwards ( a film based photographer with images that just grab you with a sence of magic to them )

I hope that every one in June can make a short trip to pop in to give us a look and if you want to talk to us about the images we will all be there pottering around coming up with ideas for what's next how can we make this better

So I look foward to seeing you all there
