Got this sweet photograph of some good old fashioned fish and chips from Mark Sherratt the other day. 

Love it.

Thanks Mark.

when hunting through my computer I found this treasure. A photo of Jonathan Cherry, what more could anyone ask for!

Indeed.

I am working at howies this week.

Jon and Alex are putting me up in Bwthyn Barri. Heating has been a bit sparse to say the least.

Slept with a wooly hat on for the first time in my life last night.

Arrived home from howies to a cold cottage so we are staying put in our BFJ’s and hats for the time being.

‘The Lion of Central Asia’ by Francesca Cao is a body of work about the impact of the oil industry on certain parts of Central Asia. This work in particular interests me because of the contrast in wealth. Pictured above is Mrs Sampe who lives alone in a village because years ago everyone else moved to the ‘big city’.

Congratulations to Andrew Urwin and Toby Coulson who were accredited with Merits.

“In Bangladesh, in the Das community of Atharobari, Iswarganj, Mymensingh, almost every man is involved in the profession of swine herding, a job given only to the men lowest in the caste system.  Swineherders lead an unusual gypsy life, bringing their herd of pigs to various places to feed, constantly moving and living in tents of bamboo and plastic paper. They usually stay three to four days in each place, and may be away from their village and family from a day to a week at a time.”

The Do Lectures have made this RAD flip book to showcase what they’re about.

It’s stuffed full of beautiful photos from the likes of Jonathan Cherry & James Bowden.

They just shoved a digital version online. Badass.
