Spent an afternoon in the park taking pictures with the Street Portraitist and this was the happy result. It is always interesting to watch someone learn by doing it, figuring out what works and what they like as they go. There is more information about how he got the shots and the kit he was using available at the link. I was also lucky he is really patient as it was one of the first times I have been in front of a camera like this and so it could have been nerve-racking! But now I have some perfect author photos and headshots to use for book promotion purposes.

It was a really good day, at least until the chill winter air killed all enthusiasm for standing in a freezing park and we decided to go and occupy the nearest Thai restaurant. Their bold yellow wall inspired this final shot, which is one of my favourites – after all, if you’re going to take something over, it is vital to make sure there is a good food supply handy. I think I will be using this as my profile picture for the rest of my life so expect to get familiar with it.
