JE2SE.

HDR.

Not normally a massive fan of the technique but... dramatic seas, dramatic skies, a camera that has auto bracketing and a copy of Photomatix, be rude not to.

Today.

Back in the office for the first time in two weeks... a job for Universal Records and a 5pm deadline needed a soundtrack that guaranteed work. This playlist on shuffle delivered.

Nice to see your own work in print... shot on my recent travels to Norway. Printed in the latest issue of NSM.

RIP Gil.

Standing in the ruins of another black man's life

Or flying through the valley separating day and night

"I am death!" cried the vulture for the people of the light

Karon brought his raft from the sea that sails on souls

And saw the scavenger departing, taking warm hearts to the cold

He knew the ghetto was a haven for the meanest preacher ever known

In the wilderness of heartbreak and a desert of despair

Evil's clarion of justice shrieks a cry of naked terror

Taking babies from their mamas, leaving grief beyond compare

So if you see the vulture coming, flying circles in your mind

Remember there is no escaping for he will follow close behind

Only promise me a battle, battle for your soul and mine

And mine

Your Soul and Mine.

Always was and always will continue to be a favourite on the studio speakers. Musical genius. Rest in Peace Gil.
