exhibitionists..

As the excellent Bristol Festival of Photography continues this week I am untangling the web of bikes in the bike shed and heading out to take a peek. With over one hundred events on over the next few weeks it really is something to go and check out. It's all very diverse including open studio events, talks, slideshows and your run of the mill hanging prints on a wall.

Anyway heading off now into town to see what I can see and will be blogging about my experiences around town over at the life.still blog keeping the spirit of the bfop and life.still alive..


And just incase you were wondering - life.still features work from five homegrown photographers...

The excellent Bristol based Tamany Baker. A Sony award winning photographer she is showcasing her unique shrine like images of her pets presents.

Gina Lundy, who works with Knowle West Media in Bristol and is presenting a before and after of a local school turned academy.

Rebecca Harley presents a beautiful selection of B&W prints with text alongside delving into peoples hopes and dreams.

John Angersons series of large format prints explore the journey taken JB Priestley in his book 'An English Journey'.

Oh - and finally my work 'A Journey from Here to There' exploring the lesser scene everydays of Bristol's Gloucester Road.
