take #2

Please do excuse my prolonged absence, I was in a photographic rut. I'm gradually getting back into it, but so far I am mostly exploring other people's pictures. I was in Moscow again recently and took another photo of the Moscow City development, which then got included in an awesome Flickr gallery called Cities of the Future curated by Philou II. Looking through this gallery gave me another boost of inspiration to resume urban photography in earnest.

spring is here!

So, yet another new photo

mitarquee photography

I recently discovered Mitarquee's work on Flickr and it is brilliant. In my opinion he has a real gift for effortlessly capturing the mood and emotion of the moment without performing post-processing or any other kind of manipulation. Seeing it makes me really want to go to Japan. Check it out! [slideshow]

update

Hello! Despite what I said previously I feel that I have neglected this blog for too long. Therefore I decided to upload two new photos below and to post links to visions of barbican and to yet another broadgate tower shot.

Through an unexpected set of circumstances I have been separated from my photo gear. Hopefully resolved shortly!
