This photo was sent to me by a mate (fellow Bowie fan!) and I love the way that the guy has even managed to find exactly the same shirt as Bowie on the cover of Rare. Go and have a look on the sleeveface website (www.sleeveface.com) and see some of the other brilliant images created by highly creative nutters!BowieSleeveface

All these events seem to sign themselves off with a massive display of fireworks which makes a spectacular finale. This shot was taken with a normal little pocket digital camera with the flash turned off and just shooting into the sky. As it was so dark, the time delay on the shutter meant I was lucky to get the shot I wanted but I am rather pleased withe result, I think it looks like a giant allium head.

This is a shot of the London Eye at night on the capitals South Bank… with a difference! This thing looks so fantastic at night but as it moves so slowly I decided to add a bit of my own movement into the shot by taking a long exposure and twisting the camera during the shot. The blue lights in the trees add to the ‘Close Encounters’ effect of the finished image, pure luck but a nice photo I think.
