Beautiful Vulture

You don’t associate vultures as beautiful but this one at Eagle Heights certainly was.  I love the textures and blurred background.

Mere Cats

Bumped into these little fellows at the Eagle Heights sanctuary.  Absolute comedy.

Eagle Heights

Popped to this Kent based bird sanctuary called Eagle Heights.  Will have to return there on a nicer day.

Gypsy Hotel

Mad eclectic music and cabaret night in London’s Dalston.

Time Out rates the night highly saying, “If you only have six hours to live, visit the Gypsy Hotel”

The night is run by PR Angel, front man of the Urban Voodoo Machine

Scotney Castle

I’d often wondered by on the A21 but never turned in.  Its more like a fairy tale cottage than a castle.  Its also the place where my camera died with the fearsome ”error 99″ message.  I’ll be sending it to canon for repair and buying myself a new camera in the meantime.

Lady Ane and Lalla Morte

So finally here with the pictures from the shoot mentioned in my last post. Lady Ane wanted some portraits and promotional shots for her forthcoming website as well as flyers and cards. That will appear on the next post.

For now lets look at the shoot they did together. This is all in aid of a new act they will both do together called The Siamese Widows.

Lady Ane Angel

I caught up with lady Ane Angel for a portrait session and had the chance to try out my portable light stand and such as we did the shoot at her home in east London.  I turned up early and we had a good breakfast and a chat then got down to business.  As it happened a performer friend of hers was there from Paris and we ended up doing two shoots.  I’ll let you see the results of that in a later post but for now her is my favorite portrait of the day of lady Ane.

Elle Make Up Competition and a Portfolio Portrait

Collaborated with Laura and Evelyn again to enter a make up contest.  Laura has to submit a theme and make up a chart of her ideas.  It was based around “bold being beautiful” and inspired by the band The Gossips.  Evelyn’s boyfriend was there and needed a shot for his portfolio.  The one included is my favorite.

You can contact Laura (make up artist) on the following e-mail,  lr_rosso@yahoo.com and Evelyn (personal stylist / fashion designer / model) on noirev84@yahoo.itevla-2.jpgevla-3.jpgevla-4.jpgevla-1.jpg

New York, New York.

Back when I first got the camera I use now I was at the airport on my way to New York.  That was at xmas 2007 and we had a lovely time with our friends Adam and Tiger.  New York impressed me immensely.  I thought after London nothing much would impress me, but New York delighted me with its attitude and architecture.   I thought I would share some of the highlights with you. Most of the pictures are from the top of the Empire State Building.  Considering this beast was built back in the 1930’s its still has an incredible impact today.  There are prettier buildings in New York, but none as iconic or quite so big.
