...Hollywood Whore...
...Papa Roach...
"Hollywood whore
Passed out on the floor
Can't take it no more
I'm sorry but the party is over.
The talk of the town
Is she's going down
I'm sorry but the party is over!"
So much relevance in today's society.
Not just celebrities but in the average joe as well, trying to make themselves into something they aren't. Excessive partying and the whole 15 minutes of fame that everyone seems to be after. The whole song has relevance, as well as being another awesome song by Papa Roach!
...Louis...
...Derbré...
French sculptor. Born to farmer parents in Northwestern France.
Working and creating amazing pieces of work for 60 years.
Le Fusillé; The piece in these pictures is one of the bronze works that was exhibited at the Hervé Gallery in 1965.
...Isn't It A Nice...
...Sentiment...
This little snippet is a letter to Ephram from his deceased mother Julia.
I think it's a nice sentiment and helps with the process of moving on and dealing with the void left by the people we love, moving on and letting them and the past go without forgetting them but embracing the future.
Everwood, A show centering on the Brown family; Andy, Ephram and Delia whose wife and mother has died in a car accident.
They then up and moved form the big city to a small town and the show is about life there after; dealing with life, death, grief and everything in between, as they start their new life in Everwood.

...Sunrise...
...In Beal Woods.
Randomly decided to camp out in the woods for a friend of mines birthday.
Got there and made a little den of sorts. Built a fire, found some extra wood for through the night and brought along a few crates of beer and some food and music. Didn't get any sleep, which was the beauty of it; seeing the sun rise and watch night turn to day. I recommend it at least once in your lifetime.

...Inks...
...Did a photoshoot a while back experimenting with some inks inks little water pots. I only used three colours; Blue, Orange and Yellow, as well as shooting them separate I mixed them, dropping tiny droplets into each pot and shooting each one until there was enough ink for it to spread out and create little streaks and mould together with the ink already to turn the colour.

It's a photoshoot I have been wanting to do for quite some time but just never had the chance, It's a only a rough first attempt with a makeshift studio made from card, but I don't think the results are too bad. As I was preparing the shoot I had images of Wolfgang Tillmams ink photographs in my head which thinking back were probably the inspiration for me to want to do my own to see the different ways the inks travel through the water and the different angles and shades that could come of it as well as it just being an experiment with colour...

...Weird Dreams...
...Been having really weird dreams these past couple of nights.
Random people, Crazy places. Now the dreams are popping into my thoughts at random intervals and it's a little worrying and confusing.
These are about the strangest things and I can't differentiate sometimes between dream and reality, they are that real...
Doing some searching and this is a interesting response I found to weird dreams and why they occur:
"The modern view of dreams are that they are the garbage dump of the mind. As you sleep, your mind tries to fit information gathered most recently with things filed in the past. That is why you will see things that related to both present and past in your dreams. e.g. if someone said something to you that hurt you, the mind might fit it together with a similar episode in the past. There will even be connections that you do not realise consciously that will turn up in your dreams. You may see a person from your past that you have not thought of in years, and wonder why, but if you talk the dream out, you might find that
his/her name matched someones that you met that day, or something you did together as children was mentioned in the day's conversation. But we often remember so little of our dreams that we sometimes cannot establish the connections fully, so they confuse us."

...Live Your Life...
Got everybody watching what I do
Come walk in my shoes
And see the way I'm living if you really want to
Got my mind on my money and I'm not going away.
So keep on getting your paper and keep on climbing
Look in the mirror and keep on shining
'Till the game ends, 'till the clock stops
We gon' post up on the top spot
T.I ft Rihanna.

...Say...
...What you need to say.
Say what you need to say.
Have no fear for giving in
Have no fear for giving over
You better know that in the end
It’s better to say too much
Than never to say what you need to say again
Even if your hands are shaking
And your faith is broken
Even as the eyes are closing
Do it with a heart wide open
Say What You Need To Say.
John Mayer - Say.
...The End Of...
...Modern Civilization.
This short film depicts World War III and the end of modern civilization, seen through the eyes of a young girl struggling to reach her family amidst the chaos.

...A Moments Peace...
Little moment of peace; contentedness.
A blissfully pleasant Saturday afternoon.
I'm in the garden on the swing chair after coming down to one of my aunts for dinner.
In our family she's the one famous for her cooking.
She made one of her famous roast dinners.
Right at this very moment I don't have any worries on my mind,
I've stopped it all,
just for a minute, until I get up.
Now I have my music playing and the warm summers breeze to cradle me along with the swing.
These little moments make the day a good one.
A shame that when I get up I have to go back to reality and deal with everything.

...Book Of...
...Sketches and Scribbles.
I keep a little book roughly A5 in size.
Whenever I get an idea I'll just scribble
or draw it down. Most, well, near to all of it is in Biro.
Black mostly and it's full of random ideas I have and
basically just doodle down.
