Artist's Comments

more from the Sic Boy Federation shoot.

well this guy is just a mobile energy ship! He's permanently on a punk trip......absolutely larger than life........as a matter of course he will walk into a bar, stride towards the bar and shout something like....DOG SHAGGER.or something equally outrageous and randomly irrelevant! LOL
when i first met him I was working in a famous bar called Ye Olde Salutation, in Nottingham. It was full of all the characters of the city, old hippies, pool sharks, Hells Angels, loadsa bikers, rockers, punks, skinheads.......you name it! And anyway, it was pretty difficult to get banned from this place but Hendrix managed it! The reason?....... he left a pigs head in the sink in the toilets!!! (just for the hell of it)

We used to do the markets at Camden's Electric Balllroom and one day he challenged me to an eating competition.........we had two large fried breakfasts each at 8 am......two large roast dinners each at lunch......fried chicken mid afternoon.....and then chips on the way home....oh and by midnight back home he ordered a pizza and won the copmpetition by a thick and crusty!!!

I am sorry this one scared you, but in real life, off stage, this guy is a pussy cat!

By the way, it was red paint (if it had been the real thing I think my angle of view would have been different..............)

From the floor!!! after fainting!! LOL

I like the light trail in this. How did it happen? It has an abstract figurative quality and helps balance the bloody punk in my eye eye eye:)

thanks.interesting you should say that cos a web designer friend of mine suggested I take it out..personally I am undecided and i don't know what caused it but my technique was quite unusual..... I used a film SLR on bulb setting with a Metz hammerhead flash. I stop the aperture down, point the camera, holding it forwards rather like people do in that annoying digital compact way, open the shutter and then fire the flash to freeze the main exposure. It's a technique i used a lot photogrphing this guy in concert (see my gallery, including "wife Hand") but it's very hit and miss........ i have been meaning to try it with my digi slr.....so watch this space!

Oh I definately will be watching ! Your photos are so professional looking I get inspired by them :)
I'm kind of a purist I guess....I like those occasional mysterious anomolies that pop up in a photo...especially when they add something interesting....not that the punk isn't interesting on his own...it's just like an added visual bonus. I almost never edit my photos (aside from color balance and contrast) and rarely even crop them but that's just me. My camera isn't high res enough to do good quality cropping with so I try to frame it in the screen. But I understand why some would like the light squiggle edited out. You can always have 2 versions anywayz eh m8 ?
