Taken By Chelsea

For many years now I have wanted to get some shots of both Chelsea Bridge and Albert Bridge at night!

As you may or may not know, I have been a huge fan of scripted-reality tv series Made In Chelsea since its inception in 2011 and both the Chelsea and Albert Bridges feature heavily. As a photographer and fairly big Chelsea enthusiast; I visited here last in February 2014 for some Chelsea Embankment photography. You can see this by clicking here.

I was after a great night capture and I think I have several now as you can see below.

Architecturally and aesthetically, the Albert Bridge is my preferred bridge...

Smokey

So for a while, I really have wanted to create a smokey graphic to add to the collection of personal graphical prints I have created in the past - see Personal (including pre Roy Ikoroha Design).

Luckily after putting it off for a few weeks due to design commitments; I now had the time to sit down and get "Photoshopping" on the style of print I was after...

Sticking to my favourite colour combination of black and white - I have used a standard head & shoulders photo of myself to provide the subject for the smokey effect!

Guys, if you have a moment; I am really interested to know what your thoughts are on this?

I must state that this design is not currently planned for commercial means; and is not for any project/motive.

Making It Happen

I am proud to write that my mum and one of her best friends Sarah completed a 5km walk for Race For Life; which is in aid of Cancer Research UK.

This took place at Trent Park and I am delighted to have captured some moments in which I have shared below.
