Distant Memory!

Wow, I must reintroduce myself to my blog again, in fact the whole world of blogging. I've not read any for ages either! Bad Ruth! Lots has been going on which is why I have not found time to update the world with my thoughts and findings! I shall make more of an effort.

Accidental Success

I was taking some new publicity shots for n:flame and this shape in the flames appeared. It was my favourite shot from the 200+ I took that day!

I've been non existant on my blog recently. But I was sent a link to this video today and I wanted to shared it as I think it is a really well made film. It would be good for a youth group discussion.

n:flame Gap Year

If Lewis can do it then so can I!!

The pressures I'm feeling...

Social Networking

I was having a discussion yesterday about how I think that social networking and things like MSN are stunting young peoples personal and interaction skills. Young people would much prefer to type out their issues than talk face to face with someone.

Today I gained my 700th friend on Facebook. I do genuinely know all of these people on there, but it made me think about why I have Facebook, and how much of my life I am allowing random friends to see!!

Moving Art

I spent the day in Scotland a few weeks ago for a freelance photography job. I had some time to use up before i flew back to London and spend a chunk of time in the Aberdeen Art Gallery. They have recently acquired a Tracey Emin piece for their collection. This is part of series, but the words in this heart really spoke to me. It said 'I felt you and I knew you loved me'. Straight away I felt God speaking to me on this. I know I am loved by him, taking the 'd' off this quote sums it all up for me. When looking for an image on good old google for this (as I couldn't take pictures in the gallery, boo) I found a few of her other pieces, they are obviously intended as mushy-couple-love, but I hear God speaking these words over me.

On this little gallery jaunt I also discovered some of the 2004 Hirst/Bailey Stations Of The Cross work. This collection is not for everyone - thats my warning- but I found some of the images interesting.

Your Support is Needed

Friends of mine are in a hip hop crew called 29th Chapter. They have a single out this week and downloading it would really help to support them. Details can be found on their website.

Pyjama Ban!

This article on the BBC website made me chuckle...

Photo of my Mood...

This is what I hope is the link to my new favourite snow photo. If it doesn't take you to the right photo then here it is...

UK Snow

I was just sent this satellite picture that was taken on 7th Jan. I've taken some nice snow shots this week which I will post a link to soon.
