Your Space Party

A couple of weeks ago I had a great time on a job taking photos at the Your Space Apartments party. The party was held in one of their beautiful apartments, the food was provided by Origin8 and the wine by Cambridge Wine Merchants (both were extremely lovely!). It was a really good evening. These photos were taken with my new lens - just look at the gorgeousness that is the bokeh - so so good, it was definitely worth investing in even if it did hurt my purse!

The light was shining through the blinds at work today onto the wall, it looks lovely but I stupidly have to have the blinds shut because otherwise i can't see my computer screen. So even if it is a sunny day, I don't know about it until I see this light splash on the wall.

I did a project a little while ago about a local butcher shop and abattoir, the title is 'work'.  I am really proud of this project and have submitted it into jpg magazine.   To be honest I am a little nervous about it being up there for all the world to see as it quite a controversial subject which could easily offend some people.  It is not my intention to shock and upset anyone, I was just looking to document what I found.  

Below are 2 images from the project.

I was interested in the working life of a local, family run, traditional butchers shop. There used to be around 3 butchers near to where I live, but, now this one is the only one left. I suspect that the big supermarket down the road has wiped out the others.

The people who work in the shop have such respect for the animals and also such skill in their craft. I wanted to document this passion they have for providing good quality, traditionally prepared food in a world where the supermarket rules.
