Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends, ladies and gentleman...

The content of this blog is generally inspired by either what I've done in the preceding week or whats been on my mind the preceding week, with Christmas deadlines looming and this weeks work load being what it is, I've found myself offering you; dear reader, a small collection of images from a gig I attended a couple of months ago.The band are BonGiovi ( Bon Jovi Tribute ) I'm proud to say these guys are friends of mine and that there show is highly charged and thoroughly entertaining, as I'm sure anyone who has seen them would agree. The lighting in this small venue is pretty good, so even with a hi ISO setting the images are still pretty sharp. More images from this gig will be available for viewing in the music gallery on my main website shortly.

The train standing at platform one ...

It's amazing how this year has panned out, one minute I'm excited about the coming months, the next I'm in the thick of it enjoying the challenge and the thrill of the chase, then in a moment of charm after the storm I find myself again looking at all the possibilities open to me with the wide eyed expectation of a child waiting at a train station en route to the seaside ( that is when I was a child, before that invented motorcars ) and my current situation does feel akin to that.

I have acquired a love of train stations and airports over the years, although I've never been one for train spotting , sitting for hours in a cold station collecting numbers. And ok not one for anoraks either ( I'm more of a duffel coat man myself ).

I think it's the idea of the anticipation, stations generally being places where people collect to travel some place else looking forward to something new.

So here I am standing at my virtual station in anticipation of the next leg of my journey, but where to next ?

There's nothing like a good spring clean in the middle of winter.

I've spent some time this week reconstructing my web galleries and doing some spring cleaning on the site in general, there's nothing like being ahead of yourself is there ; when the spring comes I'm sure I'll find some more cleaning to do.
As I've been browsing image files I find it interesting how different weddings can be, not surprising I suppose in that we are all different as people. This individuality is, after all what makes us interesting in the first place, but fascinating none the less that given that most wedding have the same basic remit, that the resulting images can be so individual, this is also what makes these days so much fun to work...
