From a Small Box
Pictures from my new film camera, an Agfa Synchro Box. It's a fun cuboid to play with, with a tiny viewfinder that only make sense to the eye when shooting from the hip (or distance equivalent). This makes composition a challenge, and when added to my recent penchant for getting lost inside multiple exposures, means I often make a mess. So, only two pictures from Paris and Zurich make it into the light for now.

Leipzig | Germany
I went to Leipzig in the winter, when all was black and white. The city was way more derelict than I had expected, but in between the broken houses is a fun place in possession of hidden corners, smoky bars, monumental monuments, art, and a restaurant serving the best hummus I've ever had the good fortune to place on my tongue. I hope to go back one summer and shoot it in colour.

Berlin | Some From The Cold (When It Was Cold)
Cold enough to freeze my hands solid and fingers into stiff white Mini Milks. But that was then, and this is now. And now is when I post these photos, while it is warmer, of a time when it was not. And then was when I was moving from place to place on assignment (more of which later), when it was cold, which it is not so much now. Anyway.

Belgium | Antwerp
I was only in Antwerp for an hour or so in the early morning on my way to the countryside, but it made quite an impression on me. Even at 8am it possessed some serious seed, well, at least the area around Centraal Station did. Two things, Antwerp: 1) I like your railway station very much, and would marry it if I was also a railway station, and 2) I would like to come back and spend more time in your company, for you intrigue me.

Event Photography | Tattoo Convention | Berlin
Right at the end of last year I covered the 22nd International Tattoo Convention for a news agency in the UK. The Convention took place in the cavernous Treptow Arena where, only a few weeks before, I'd seen Bon Iver play. But on this visit no delicate music was to be heard, only the buzzing of hundreds of tattoo machines in the hands of their artists.
There were several tattoo contests over the three days along with a tattoo queen competition, bands, geisha dances, and burlesque performances. The highlight (for me at least) was the Superfly Suspension Crew who hung off each other, swinging over the crowd, suspended from hooks pushed through the flesh of their backs and legs.

Cologne
I was only in Cologne for a day, and it rained for most of that. But here are some shots from the wee wedges of time between the showers.

Potsdam
So far I've been living on an island called Berlin. It's a cool island, so that's alright. But it's good to see what's outside the island, and these photos are from a trip to Potsdam. Most of the photos are from Sansoucci Park, which is a World Heritage Site, and very nice to cycle around, especially in the low, late summer's light.

China Large
Before I begin I'd like to say a few things. This is going to be a pretty large post. Because China is a very large place, and although the photos here are just from a small part of it, the trip I recently undertook with my girlfriend was a very large trip, and one that I'd thought about doing for a large amount of time.
Most of the photos aren't from the part of the trip that were the point of going there. Partly because I wasn't taking many photos during that bit, and partly because I don't know how to write about it yet, and would, very likely, babble.
At this point maybe I'd just like to add an apology to anyone I know in China who I didn't visit. Next time I will - I promise.
Because of the nature of the journey, we wanted to travel as light as possible, which meant one bag each and no DSLR. I had my Holga with me and will post some of those photos once they're printed. But these are all photos from my phone.

Second Impressions of Deutschland
Here are some more photos from my phone that I've taken while discovering the neighbourhoods of (mainly) the east of Berlin.
I'm not jet-lagged anymore, and I still don't totally know where I am, but a map of the place is starting to take shape and favourite areas are beginning to colour in their positions. And to that infant map I say - "I like your lines. I like your bold colours. I like your graffiti. I like your drinking on the street and everywhere else. I like your cafes, and I like the strange things you leave lying around".
