A couple changes ...

Wed Nov 1, 2006, 5:07 AM
Hello anyone who is still looking,

After a great summer, the nights are getting longer, evenings are getting colder and I'm back on the computer more. That's the first change, sort of back to how it used to be, including actually paying attention to people who I watch.

Second change is most of what is here will probably be gone for a short while, to re-appear later. I've taken a lot more since my last submission and also a lot from times before never made it up. I'd like it to all be in chronological order so, the only real option is to pretty much start again.

I did say a couple,

Yours, trying to tickle myself with a feather,

Owain.

Alright mate! Sorry this is a little late... well... a month late. But anyway, i'm doing good, thanks =)

Just got by my AS examinations, and have begun my A2 courses. What is happening with your life at the moment? You'll have to tell me what I have missed with Sutton Images and all that.

Keep those pictures coming.

I'm not exactly punctual with this reply myself so, I'll let you off!

I just finished my A2 examinations and have started on the second year of an AS I picked up late (Photography) with the most empty timetable possible.

All quiet on the Sutton front really, given that a) I'm continuing at college and b) I'm doing that primarily because I've gone off the idea, for a couple of reasons I'll try and keep short:

*I don't like shooting a hundredweight of the same shot, then doing the same shot the next weekend. They do some great stuff, but 90% of it is recycled week on week, especially outside of F1.
*I discovered I have a very specific interest in motorsport and outside of that interest I really don't enjoy it much. I wouldn't be able to choose events I'm interested in, they would be assigned me from what needs doing.

When I started doing what the job entailed - shooting an event, any event every week, and shooting it constantly and repititively, I realised it wasn't for me after all.

I'm really enjoying it again now (that is to say there was a time when I really, really didn't) I've got back to my old ways a bit more and found a client who really likes me personally and what I do with the camera and in between accreditations I'm doing the events I really like, how I like.

Speaking of which - Goodwood in two weeks. You going again? Fancy meeting up? I am there for all three days.

Good luck with your courses, sorry for waffling, hope to see you in West Sussex ...
