Emulsure ‘Basingstoke Edit’

As I mentioned in a previous post, Craig Tull of Emulsure came down the other day to shoot some footage, well the video he has put together is below, where it stars me for all of 5 seconds, so my publicity should now go through the roof!
It also shows that my timing on Millers lookback is stupidly off, but…..looking at the photo, which is here, the timing is perfect, even though, again shown by the video, one of my flashes didn’t fire……I really need some new equipment! Don’t even get me started on the fiasco I had tonight with my flashes……..

Anyway here’s the video, and be sure to check out Emulsure if you haven’t already!

Sunny Day With Mike Miller

As my previous post shows, it was a nice day, and Adam and me decided to bully Miller into performing for the camera while I was sat on top on the 6ft.
So these pictures, yes they’re all taken from the same place, same angle etc. but fucking hell that boy needs to calm down.
You might as well just take a look, I’m sure theres not even much point in writing anything because you’ll probably think it when you scroll down and see the pictures.
There was going to be a No Hander air picture and a flatspin 540 picture too, but Miller was a complete pussy and went home to snuggle in bed and suck his thumb, and accroding to his facebook on multiple occasions, probably perform so disgusting sexual acts with farmyard animals.

So feast your eyes upon these pictures, and enjoy them, or die…….the choice is yours.




Hot And Sunny

Summer is almost here, so with the day off and no hangover, which is surprising considering how drunk I was, I decided to take some pictures at the park today, especially as quite a few people came down.
I also had a chat with Craig Tull, who is the man behind Emulsure (if you haven’t checked it out already, do so!) and we were discussing Photoshop, so I thought, other than the usual RAW to JPG tweaks, I will leave any other editing out the pictures I post today, mainly to show how nice it was today, but also just to see what difference it makes.

So here’s a couple shots of Cleaver-Rice on the trails, Chunky sending a hella tweaked canjam and a shot of Paul Miller doing a footjam while being abusive.

Enjoy!




Blogging

What wears glasses, works a lot and hardly ever gets to takes pictures because of it?……….well, I think thats pretty obvious. So what do you do at a time like this? Well personally I check out the local blogging talent.
Such as my friend Robert here who is entertaining. And Tomi Kain’s blog, which is as equally entertaining, even if it isn’t updated that much.

So if you would like to check out those blogs, or if you have a blog of your own you want me to link to, please let me know!

Safe ones and enjoy the sun!

Tiny Organisations

After finding out how to view the stats of my website and finding I have over 250 visits and over 16000 hits from the UK in about a week and a half, and even hits in places like India, I thought I might check my email, where I found an email from someone who set up a website about a week ago and was asking me to link him and in return he would link me, so here it is – Tiny Organisations.
To be honest, I’m not overly sure what the purpose of this persons website is, and they are remaining completely anonymous, but whoever it is, is out to make money by being a mystery, and it seems to have already started. So go check it out and rememeber, do a good deed and you may feel some advantage to it.

Production Shots at Luke Towey’s Skindaddy Edit

Saturday night……starting at about 7ish, Sam comes down to film a edit of Towey shredding a session on the driveway, so after setting up, sorting out the lighting, getting told by community service officers to move Sams car and the nice sunny warm day turning into a cold night, Towey was shredding the shit out of the driveway, some of the stuff that boy did was just amazing. So I got my camera out and shot some pictures of Sam filming the edit, Production shots if you will…..they’re not great, mainly as I had to shoot them at ISO 1600 and a slow shutter speed, due to the lack of light and I didn’t want flashes interfering with the filming, but I did my best with the lights I had.
Oh, and did I forget to mention, Sam also got Cam’s girlfriend Daisy, Beancan’s girlfriend Eliza and Ryan’s girlfriend Amy, who is also a model and her website can be viewed here at www.amylu.co.uk,I think the homepage speaks very wisely when it says don’t enter….unless you are 18 or over, and like boobies……I don’t think anything more needs to be said about that website, I think it’s pretty self explanatory.
So once all this is done and its about 2am and people start to crave a cup of tea, we head home…..all in all it was a good night, and very productive and stay tuned on Sam’s Vimeo as I’m sure the video will be posted then when finished, and if not, I’ll probably link it on here anyway.

But here are the shots, again, they are unedited, and as always, just click to make bigger.

Summers Coming

Well, again, not much to say about this post, theres like 20 pictures of basically having a laugh at the skate park. Once the sun comes out, so does the camera, bbq’s, beers and just having an overall good time, so here are some pictures that dont really have any relation to photography or anything like that, but they just show how happy the sun makes people. In fact, I believe a few are even out of focus (the one with Samwise’s ass out) or not taken by me, as i think im in one of the pictures, but they’re still kept, because they’re fun to look out, so take a look, have fun…..and enjoy the nice weather.
These are unedited, and as always, click the image to enlarge 🙂

Dan ‘Nosh Nosh’ Harris

What can I say about this post?….well…….Chunky fucked his leg a while back, he’s still not supposed to be riding, and then he fucked his leg again when he shouldn’t be riding, but sure enough, it was sunny and he wanted to get a picture of a opposite bars air.
This boy is an idiot, here’s the picture.

WEBSITE COMPLETELY COMPLETED

Thats right, the last 2 link pages that I needed information for are completed, and I’ve added a few more pictures to the portfolio too, so, untill the weather clears up, sit back, chill out, take a look and sread the word.

Thanks for looking 😉
