Urban Portraits 2
Aug 30th
This is the second set of photos utilising abandoned and run-down landscapes in the local area. Here, Kyle poses in an army style jumpsuit, bomber jacket and red jock. The photos were taken for his own portfolio.
Editors Note: You would not believe how hard it is to take a photo of someone wearing mirrored sunglasses! Photos taken in August 2009.
Urban Portraits

I love the contrast between the vivid colours of the graffiti and dilapidated environment under the railway arches here; it provides an intriguing background for these portraits.
The arches are no longer accessible; apartments were built overlooking them and the developer didn’t think they’d help with sales. Photos taken in September 2005.
Men on White
Apr 4th
Portraits taken against a plain white background are standard issue in studios everywhere. Here are some of my experiments with a man, a wall and some studio lighting.
Most of these photos are from 2005, before I moved the furniture around making it impossible to do this sort of photography at home.
End of a Furry Era.

Well, Movember officially finished yesterday so here’s my last image.
Thank you for everyone who donated. As a group (the five of us at work doing this) we’ve rased £237 with your help, all for a very good cause!
As for keeping the Mo, well no. It was nice while it lasted but it’s time to go back to a more conventional look.
Thanks, and have fun.
Mo Photo Update – Half Way Mark
Nov 16th
I cannot believe it’s the 16th of November already! What with work, catching-up with friends and grooming my Mo, I’ve hardly noticed the time pass.
Given that today means we’re just past the half way mark, I thought I’d best post a photo update:
What do you think? A worrying number of people seem to think it suits me 
Remember, I’m not growing a moustache for men’s fashion but for men’s heath. Help out the Prostate Cancer Charity by sponsoring me here.
Thanks and have a great week!
Weasel Ben?
Nov 10th
My Flynn/Musketeer Mo is coming on well so it’s time for another photo update.
Unfortunately, I’m also looking a little weasel-ish! I can put up with it as it’s all for a good cause. Please help by donating here.
