About me

I’m James and I live and work in West London. I guess it’s pretty obvious that I enjoy photography and anything webby. Between myself and my wife we have three teenagers between the ages of nine and 14 (@ Oct ‘08). We also have an cat, two rabbits and a goldfish. This is getting silly….

About the site

The site was conceived one October 2005 morning in the shower. Why I do it I have no idea, but there’s something cathartic about displaying photos that would otherwise sit unseen on a hard drive somewhere, and posting about all the things in this world that interest me, even if no-one else gives a damn. I don’t have a good enough imagination or sufficient creative writing skills to write a novel, and don’t have the inclination to create any sort of private diary, so this is some form of hybrid of the two.

I also have a day job managing a website for a major scientific institution and visitor attraction, I make a bit of extra money by doing some wedding photography, and I run a website about vintage photographs, mainly aimed at identifying the locations, people and objects featured in them - see www.whatsthatpicture.com.

You can find out more about what’s behind this site in the credits
