I’ve been chasing my tail a lot recently with some great projects I’m involved with.

I’ve had another amazing opportunity from Channel 4 to make a short film about mixed martial arts (MMA), and have been following a number of amazing guys from Glasgow’s Griphouse Gym in Possil.

I’m also trying to get a long term photo project, exploring the positive aspects of life in Onthank in Kilmarnock, off the ground.

Sadly not much time left for wet plate adventures or blogging, however, I did want to let those that can see it know that a few large prints from the wet plate work are being exhibited as part of The Force and Form of Memory – which is now on display at Hampden.

It’s a really great group exhibition aimed at raising awareness and money for Alzheimer Scotland. I was invited to participate by Jill Gerber from The Compass Gallery – so a massive thanks for that Jill.

Here’s a wee snap from the opening night at the Compass Gallery before it moved to Hampden – with wee Charlotte sitting in front of the massive print I made from the plate of her up on the isles this summer. There’s also a print of the Cuillins from Elgol, and of Mike the farmer from Perth. Jim if you read this can you let Mike know he’s larger than life at Hampden! It’s been amazing to see the plates reproduced to this scale – very exciting!! 🙂
