On Display

Exhibition

This is a pic from the exhibition viewing a couple of nights ago. I was a bit nervous about it - never being that content with being in the public eye - but it turned out to be quite fun in the end. Plus there were free canapes and champagne, which can never be a bad thing. It was particularly nice to see the participants (or "victims" as I like to think of them) again - they were all pleased with the results, which was good to hear. Thanks once again Chib, Nancy, Phil and Tom.

Hopefully there'll be some more work to come on the Day in the Life concept; it's been such a great job for me. For the meantime, the exhibition remains on display at the Manchester Museum until the 16th October, so plenty of time to see it yet! All the photos are also up in the gallery.

Looking Back

Iraq Elections

Bit of a long gap since the last update ... mainly because rather than being sensible and pursuing one project at a time, I've been working on several things at once and therefore completing little. One thing I have got finished is rescanning and revamping the Iraqi Election gallery on the site - looks a little better now.

Next up is the Dungeness gallery - still have lots left to go through from my last trip, and then the everything needs to be put together into some vaguely coherent whole. I have more or less decided to get rid of the whole triptych thing, for both practical and aesthetic reasons.

Seems an appropriate time of year for this sort of thing - summer has drawn to a close, and the prospect of an interminable Manchester winter does tend to make you look back at how you've spent and misspent the year so far...
