The week that was.

I want to start today by thanking Andrew Hetherington over at Whats the Jackanory?, for adding this blog to his blog roll.

Well once again i have to apologize for the lack of new posts this last week. It has been a busy but great one. Was nice to be back in the North East catching up with mates i haven't seen in ages and of course seeing the girlfriend before she goes away.
Most of the week was spent watching films and generally hanging out with mates and my girlfriend, but i did have some time to take all the bin images for the week to post here and also take in some galleries.


I went to the Baltic Gallery, which is a great place. Not so much for the shows they have on, i just really like the place, also has a great bookshop. They had a couple of good shows on this time. None were really photography related but i thought id mention them anyway. Barry McGee had a show on called They Don't make This Anymore . This was a really nice show, had some nice prints and some nice photographs and lots of nice Biro drawings.
Mona Marzouk had a snow on called The Bride Stripped Bare By Her Energy's Evil. This was an interesting show, i didn't really get what it was all about but there was a nicely animated video and some huge wall paintings that were pretty cool.
I also went and checked out the Side Photographic Galllery. There was a great exhibition on by Rhodri Jones about Chinese migrants. There were loads of nice black and white hand prints. It was really good to see some hand prints, makes such a difference when shot on film and traditionally printed.

On Easter Monday i met up with a mate in a bar in Durham, while we were there, these two dogs were sat outside patiently waiting on their owners return.
I was just amazed at how quietly they waited considering how long their owner left them for.
Sorry once again for the long delay in posting and for the amount of bin images in one go! i'll keep it more up to date from now on.
