The British tabloids and tv love animal stories and having two good friends who not only train and breed dogs for the UK Police & Prison services but also have other animals including Llamas and racoons they can be a really good source for stories for me now and again and it's recipricol by being good publicity for their animal behaviour and training business.I recently did a piece on Louie the

An interesting new direction?

2010-07-24T15:36:00.004+01:00

A new direction? Before even starting to study photography at college and then later at university I’ve always held an interest in video, and more specifically news and documentary work but for a number of reasons including other opportunities, fate and not least the cost of running a pro video kit alongside my Nikon stills kit, it was not something I was able to actively

Quotes from the great man who sadly passed away on Wednesday:"I can think of nothing more wonderful than being a photographer because it's just you, this little box and the world and it's up to you to arrange that world in a rectangle...What better thing could you be doing?" P. J. GRIFFITHS"I believe that we can't ignore a simple, simple fact, and that is that the world is being dumbed down, P. J

Have a look at this on EPUK, a story about police officers from the West Midlands force illegal actions against photographer Lawrence Looi, 31, a staff photographer with news agency News Team in making him delete images from his camera!:http://www.epuk.org/News/818/police-officer-forced-photographer-to-delete-images

Who comes up with these ideas?!?!

Tony Wilson loses his battle to cancer

2007-08-10T21:41:00.000+01:00

This is so, so sad.I never knew or met Tony personally, and only ever saw him twice in person on stage introducing New Order at the Hacienda, which are such good personal memories for me.I think that its more tragic that some of his recent work on XFM Manchester and on TV recently on Sunday's was still so brilliant. Aside from his musical legacy, Tony was Granada local news in the North West for

Like Rooney, he scores after a drought!

After what seems like weeks of not getting anything published despite working almost everyday in recent weeks, today I finally got a bylined pic in The Sun. I never thought I'd have sympathy for Wayne Rooney but I feel I have some understanding of how frustrated he must have been during his recent goal drought!

When your pictures don't make it to the page

2006-07-23T21:12:00.000+01:00

Today I'm left feeling a bit frustrated after a story I covered yesterday didn't even get a mention, let alone any of my pictures get used in today's editions of the Sunday paper I was on commission for. I accept and am more than used to commissioned pictures not making it to the page, it's all part of the job but yesterday something happend that made it personal, it was a bit like being pinched

During my short stay in Germany all the local people that I met or came in to contact with were extremly friendly and hospitable and more than once I wondered if the English would have shown the same welcome to the German fans had roles been reversed? So, even though I'm not the biggest footie fan in the country, I was disappointed to see the World Cup 2006 hosts get knocked out byt Italy.Here's

Back on home turf in Manchester at the big screen at the Castlefield Arena and they think its all over.........well unfortunately, it is now and so it'll be a trip to Manchester airport on Sunday to try to photograph the players returning like Messers Rooney and Gerrard and accompanying WAGS, rather than a return journey by me to Baden Baden as had been penciled in.

This isn't going to be an easy one though as the England training camp is a hilltop fortress at the Schlosshotel in Buhlerhohe but this doesn't stop Barcroft Media who I'm working with wanting me to get
