Media Darling...



















I was on television on Wednesday night! On a programme with Freddie Flintoff, Ricky Hatton and Piers Morgan. Oh, yes, I was! Ok, truth is ..  Freddie presented it, Piers and Ricky were interviewees .. and I was seen for about 0.0007 of a second in a shot from a cricket match with Freddie last August. Remember this? Amazing, though, the number of people who told me they'd seen me "in action", and rather fortunate that I'd set a timer for the programme as it looked rather interesting.
It was all about depression in sportsmen!

Anyway, my TV appearance came hot on the heels of an interview I gave to the Warrington Guardian, who are hopefully going to run a piece about my Mish Mash show in next week's paper. I'm just waiting for BBC News, Sky and CNN to contact me now and I'll have done the lot.
I might be waiting a while!

In the meantime, I'll get to my side of the camera as I'm shooting a local MP's visit to one of my clients today. I wonder if he'll recognise me off the telly?....

PS: Hope you like my shot of 'Bet Lynch' and 'Annie Walker' .. past stars of Coronation Street seen at a party in Waterstone's in Manchester (Believe it or not..)

Mish Mash...




















Hey, hey, we're up and running, and it's all looking good for Mish Mash, my new exhibition at Corvino's, the Culcheth deli! Even before I'd got the pictures on the walls a lady came up to me and told me she wanted to buy a print of Morrissey as a birthday present for her son. Excellent! (Ok, one other young lady didn't know who Morrissey was, and hadn't even heard of New Order, never mind Joy Division! Oh, and one chap asked if it was an exhibition by the new Sunderland manager! His name's Martin O'Neill, in case you didn't know! Hey ho!) Anyway, the show's called Mish Mash because that's exactly what it is .. a mish-mash of my 'hobby' photography, pulled together in just a couple of weeks after the owner of the Deli offered me the fresh white walls of her newly renovated room. I decided to show some of my 'other work', as opposed to my PR and Wedding photography, so there are images from my books Don't Miss That and Don't Miss This, as well as travel shots, Florescence shots, and a selection of images from gigs. You've got three months to catch it!
