GotPassion?

Two boys and their Baby.

Shooting (strictly in the photographic sense) children, is always a bit hit and miss. How they will behave, will you get good photos, or just blurs of colour as they never keep still. Normal expressions, or goofy faces?

As I went to shoot some lovely, lovely friends of mine on Monday I wandered how it would turn out. What will the lighting be like. As I walked up Baalbec Rd to Highbury Fields I noted how the light hit the buildings and it looked even more beautiful than normally. A great place to take photos but I don't think they will want to come here, after all - they have no particular connection to this road.

Imagine my surprise to find out that their grandmother had lived on this road, and yes it would be a great place to take a photo. It was a great afternoon, the kids were not only good but really good, and patient with me shooting away. 

Thankyou!

 

 

 

My London. 27/04/11

a. Can you guess the vantage point from where this photo was taken? (Winner gets a special smile!)
b. Look lady, I really think you need to take that camera out of my face.
c. Well I'll smile just this once!
d. Part of the Whittington Hospital. Who knows what the rooms on the higher floors are used for, as I thought net curtains weren't really used in Hospitals? 
e. Just can't get enough of this cute baby.

 

Passion Play at Trafalgar Square

I imagine it was like the first Good Friday, the sun was shining bright and hot. Were the clothes really so colourful? All the colour seems to betray the sadness of the day when Jesus was put on the cross. 

Yesterday afternoon I went to see the Passion of Christ play at Trafalgar Square, it was put on by the Wintershall Estate and was amazingly well done. Sadly delays on the tube meant I was not on time for a good position and was not really able to see very easily. I didn't go to take photos of the big screens, but managed to get a peak through the crowds at some of the action (thank goodness for zoom lenses!).

It was great to see so many people there,(although somewhat surreal seeing modern people mix with Hebrews and Romans) learning about the true message of Easter and I totally plan to go next year (and leave enough time for a front row seat!)

Here are some favourites..

They say actions speak louder than words, what more can I add? Except click on the photos for larger versions.
