Hanging around at Questors Grapevine ( 103 a revisit I'm afraid)



So Tim Layden and I ably assisted by his Mum got to grips with our exhibition space this morning.

Tim has 12 images about the months of the year and I too have focused on 'Time' .

Three Glassy pictures 
And two with people

















Covent Garden and Chinatown/ Soho 

It's interesting to see the planning come to life - I've added labels and there are brochures and business cards.

The other Tim's work is on the long wall and provides a nice counterpoint - if you're in West London do pop in and take a look.










Some of the year as described by Tim Layden in a mixture of materials 





And then a drink
















And it's £134 05

'More is More' and the Last Photo' Exhibition session along with planning (No 102)

Yesterday we had the last of our Exhibiting Photography course - it was good to get the opportunity to try out what we had been exposed to and I'm optimistic that I could have a visit from our course tutor Shirley Read an expert in Photographic Curation.

My inclination is somewhat against the times to say 'more is more'.

I have the following provisional line up for tomorrow.


As you enter from the left - 3 with galss 

And next to them - people









On the other side of the arch - 3 featured works showing my images if what I think is A Cosmopolitan City  - starting with 'Covent Garden' then hopefully the red images will draw the eye.

And  then 3 bigger pictures - with a certain 'distance' to them.











And now with the new £1 coin - £133.03



We'll find out how it looks in the next day (and Tim L's too)

The photographs are taking me back to my 'red' project  - oddly the first of a rather excellent short series by  Wayne Hemingway's 'Owning Colour - Red on Radio 4 also had that effect.


Doors



I like Gordon Road




A revisited road but a new door

Kensington Gardens, a pause but still 101

On the way to (and back from)  The Serpentine Gallery (more about that later) - some lovely spring colours and slightly  bizarre behaviour (like the man who seemed to be recording himself running around his camera) .

Hold on - I'll be a bird running around
An almost dead tree with birds




















And a couple walking together (but not into the sunset)


Well this is still going £131 30

Doors


So as I mentioned the doors are sliding but here's one to keep us going in a local road

A road we've seen before










But a door that's fresh

Doors

I've reached a hundred and what with exhibition and holiday the doors are going to be 'a jar' as the old joke goes  - but more as I stumble upon them..
