I have recently found myself at a bit of a stalemate. Being very busy at work means that I haven’t got as much free time that I’ve been used to. When I do have some time off I get the feeling of ‘Oh I’ll just leave my camera at home today’. This has led me using my iPhone more and more and in particular instagram.
I used to think there was a bit of a cliché attached to instgram. I used to feel almost guilty for using it, like I was betraying my DSLR. When in fact it’s enabled me to explore a new medium. I way of shooting and sharing photo’s in a instant.

Here are a selection of some of my favourite shots from the past 3 or 4 months.

On Thursday 1st March I was asked to photograph the A Trek for Owen Charity Auction  with all profits going to Aplastic Anemia Trust. It was a fantastic night with amazing food and more importantly lots of money was raised to go to the trust.

If you were there on the night and would like to purchase any prints click HERE or on ny of the photos to take you to my gallery. All money raised from prints will go to the AAT.

Make sure you check the A Trek for Owen Facebook page. All the photos from the night will be uploaded soon on there.

One of the most interesting things that I documented was the way that people interacted within the Colmore Business District. It was interesting to see how different people used the space and I set out to capture as many characters as I could.

Continuing my posts on my Perspectives collection I found that Colmore Business District isn’t just home to big corporate business’ but small independent vendors. This collection of photographs looks at a few of the most interesting people I met and photographed.

The next couple of blog posts are going to feature some of the shots I took for a recent collection called ‘Perspectives: Photographs of Colmore Business District’.
For this particular blog I decided to focus on the building in the district. There are a vast number of different styles of building from all different periods. Ever increasingly the new replaces the old, and sometimes the old becomes the new.

I’ve been using instagram quite a lot recently and found I get some really interesting results, combine that with a cool app called ‘frametastic’ and this is where this blog photo comes in.

If I keep posting photos from summer time I’m hoping it’ll get warmer soon.

All these photos were taken along the Welsh coast last summer.
