Met Jake Hitchman in The George Cafe, Newnham, Gloucestershire today.  Jake is a young up and coming photographer who is soon to be showcasing his Forest of Dean project at The George.  Jake's Facebook Page can be found here, and The George's page here.

Please support our local art and craft groups.  Good luck Jake.

So, today I got my first film taken on my recently acquired Leica M4-P, processed and scanned to CD and USB stick.  I have to say a big thank you to Barry Roberts at 'The Darkroom', Cheltenham for the excellent service provided. More information can be found here.

Here's a small selection of the images taken with either my 28mm Elmarit or 50mm Summarit lenses and using Kodak Portra 400 film; I'll be trying out Fuji Superior 200 next.

I finally managed to get some more photography time in Bristol so I've now added a gallery to the Streets Page.  Bristol is great city, so diverse, with lots to do and see and was designated as the U.K's first cycling city.  In particular is the thriving street art which can be seen in various locations right across the city.  For more information on Bristol Street Art, pop across to their website here.

There are many photo' opportunities, and for this visit I've tried to concentrate mainly on the street art in the area of Stokes Croft.  I hope you like them.
