Down in the tube station at three in the afternoon

Interesting effects resulting from putting the camera on the escalator handrail, and just letting the camera do its stuff with the available light.

I rather like the feel of motion...

It is indeed a nice photo.

But why did your mood shift to 'pissed off'?

I just found out that a magazine publisher I'd been doing a lot of work for has gone bust...

[grey-lady.livejournal.com]

Ah. Ouch. Sorry to hear that.

[sbisson.livejournal.com]

Not as sorry as my bank manager! :-)

Whoops. Invoices outstanding, or all paid up to date?

[sbisson.livejournal.com]

Outstanding unfortunately. Two issues published, copy delivered for another two...

[autopope.livejournal.com]

Oh bugger. Any sign of an official receiver?

[marypcb.livejournal.com]

http://www.the-word-is-not-enough.com/blog/personal/finance/highbury/ is our best source of information at the moment. He says
"There's a single ring-fenced fund that covers all work commissioned from mid-December onwards. If you completed work for Highbury from then onwards and you have purchase order numbers to confirm the commission, you can still submit invoices to Jordan House, 47 Brunswick Place, London N1 6EB, marked for the attention of the receivers, and they should be paid.
Any invoices from before mid-December are unlikely ever to be paid by E&Y, but they're looking through them to decide which are eligible for payment from the fund."
The letter that jsut arrived from E&Y is less cherrful and more official. We shall see...

I like the way you captured the street musician at the bottom.

Interesting perspective effect: must admit this is something which has always fascinated me. Probably my best is this one:




which I took lying on an inter-city rail line...
