It's been one of those weeks where I've had a few spin offs from past jobs and also shot some stock photos along the way.
The little androgynous person on the tarmac was right by the boot of my car in a multi-storey car park. I'm afraid I ran them over, but not before I had taken a couple of quick snaps-I'll be interested to see if this one sells. It's amazing what does get sold on as stock images. Last week I made a sale from an image shot in 'smack alley' which showed dirty syringes,needles,and other drug taking paraphernalia in a messy heap of rubbish.

A banner for a rock band and pictures of the recent UK earthquake for a large insurance company were two of the other spin-offs from last week. Every little helps as they say at a certain store. I'm always on the lookout for more outlets to sell my work and also for stock photos. Sometimes it's very disappointing because you see a stock pic and there is no time to stop, not even to take a quick photo. That happened on Friday as I whizzed down a road alongside a field of daffodils in full bloom and lovely sunshine.

Amusing incident of the week-I was staying overnight at a hotel up north, along with a reporter from The Daily Telegraph.
We had tried and tried to get a hotel and everywhere was booked solid for some reason even though it was only a Tuesday night. So we ended up at a Fawlty Towers kind of place at 11.30 p.m. Unusually the rather strange owner said he would show us to our rooms and first he showed the reporter where 'number 40' was. Only it was number 41. As the reporter fumbled with the key in the gloom she was treated to the sight of a bloke fast asleep on the bed and stark bollock naked !!
