Ancient camera test shots
This is the mess that that 1958 Kodak Brownie Flash II box camera produced! I seriously mucked up the processing of the film, and there are some horrific light leaks here, but it’s kind of fun! My lomographised StarMucks picture! :)

I first met Michael when I was in Detroit. He came to Motown, and they were talking about this boy from Gary, Ind., and the Jackson 5, and everyone was excited. He was a little boy then. He would always come into the studio curious about how I worked and what I did. “How do you do that?” “Why do you do that?” I think he understood clearly from seeing various people do the music scene that it definitely took work. He must have been around 9 or 10 then, and I definitely felt that he would be someone. You heard the voice, and all he could do was grow. And that’s what he did.
I remember playing air hockey one time, and we were going back and forth. I play air hockey on the side as opposed to the end of the table because it’s more accessible for me to really understand what’s happening. He said, “Oh, you’re cheating.” And I said, “Aw, I’m not cheating, come on.” And we went on and on for hours, just playing air hockey and being silly. He had a childlike heart. And that was very, very impressive to me. At the end of the day, we’re all human beings, and for those who can’t see that it is possible for a man who’s an adult to have a childlike spirit, it doesn’t mean that they’re weird, it doesn’t mean they’re a freak or whatever ridiculous things people say. We have all kinds of people in the world. The most important thing is that your heart is in a good place.

Sleepy Sunday (for some)
Still writing… So tired, I’m feeling as confused as this little kid was when he saw me in the park holding a camera.

Ed Sheeran - an incredible writer
I read that Ed Sheeran had written a song for One Direction, called ‘Moments’. Take a listen to it - it’s so beautiful. Regardless of the performance: the chords, the lyrics - seriously beautiful.
Turns out he wrote it about a guy who committed suicide after his girlfriend died from cancer, and he could no longer face life. Very sad, and seriously deep! I hope Ed performs this song himself some day - he wrote something very special here.
That, and I still cannot stop listening to ‘Give Me Love’ from ‘+’…
Here’s ‘Give Me Love’: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XF2AlO8cKbE
And here’s ‘Moments’: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fl4KjaqiRaM

‘To photograph is to hold one’s breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It’s at that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy.’

Simply because I’m posting a whole bunch of songs I love, HAVE THIS ONE TOO! Favourite summer song ever ever ever and it was on in the restaurant that me and Ashleigh went to. I was so stoked, I near choked on my salad. (Ahem.)
Moral of the story: somebody take me to see Santana because he’s ridiculously cool, and buy me a Rob Thomas because he is another person guilty of having a stupidly sexy voice.
