El Jefe

This brilliant guy designs some really great gig posters, among other things, including those for The Gaslight Anthem. Gaslight's new album is out Monday, and my special edition package with t-shirt should be arriving around then. Very much looking forward to it.

But anyway, El Jefe. El Jefe Design is the secret code name for successful designer, illustrator, author and failed-rock star Jeffrey Everett.


"The nice people of The Gaslight Anthem asked us to create a poster to celebrate the pre-order of their excellent album "America Slang". We pulled imagery from the lyrics of "The Queen of Lower Chelsea" and designed a poster that celebrates lost love and New York City. These posters were sold along with the limited-edition vinyl pre-orders and sold out in 10 minutes."

Dad's old Pentax


I enjoyed using my cat cam film camera a lot, but no matter how hard I try, it is inevitable that over half of the photographs won't come out or will be nothing but a blur. And so, before I went home at Easter, my dad found this old film camera in the loft. I took a few photographs at home,
and some in London.

All the photographs at home were of Poppy, and I seemed to
struggle with the focussing when I first started using the camera -
so this is the only one I'm showing.

LONDON
Liverpool Street Station
Camden Town
Regent's Park


And back to FALMOUTH
Crane spotting.
Some of my favourite trees.
Dolphin bin!
Beach days.
A fine pair of sunglasses.
Sea. Sand. Sun. Feet.

Film photographs have a whole range of colours that you wouldn't get with a digital camera. That's mostly what I love about them.

Cat Cam V

These photographs are actually from over two months ago, during the Easter holidays back in Milton Keynes (mostly) but I only just found them whilst sorting through packs of printed photos. So time to scan a few and show them to the world.

There's lots of my cat. I miss my cat. But I'll be home in under three weeks.
