Update!
I'm still working on the new website and 'am currently looking into a new domain name plus a US based web hosting service.
I've been having a few problems with the exisiting service, which is UK based, and I've pretty much made my mind up that
switching to a local service is in my best interests. Especially that the new site is a going to be a total transformation compared to this site!
On the photography side I'm hopefully going to get a large amount of original negatives from England in the next coming
weeks! I'm just hoping that my Mum can find them all without having to ascend into the dreaded attic of our house in London!
My fingers are crossed, because if I can get my pinkies' on these photographs my worldwide catalogue will be greatly increased and I'd like to think that this material could be a good seller from the website in the coming years.
Still with photography!
I'm about to read a biography on "Robert Capa" by Richard Whelan. Published in 1985, the author claims to have a close and intimate relationship with the "Capa" family and also with his many friends and colleagues, including Eve Arnold, Erich Hartmann, Geza Korvin to name just a few!
"Capa" as a man, as a photo-journalist, as a combat photographer, as a gambler and a womanizer has always intrigued me since I was a small boy and I've only ever read bits & pieces of his life and never the whole picture. So I'm going to read this book and then post my opinions and comments to the site with an an objective viewpoint but I'm going to search for a slant
to try and see another side to the man and the myth!
Apart from that my hamster is healthy! Mrs "Hilarious" Clinton will be the next President of the United States. Expect a small scale nuclear attack either on these shores or the Middle East region within the next 12 months. Most babies will be micro chipped before entering the womb and I just realized that I forgot to switch on "Miss Moneypenny's" automated cat shitter machine!
Something is starting to stink....
