Today I went to visit Jane Andrews’ new body of work “Station of the Skirt” which is being shown at The Gallery at the OXO building on London’s South Bank.

In this series of paintings , executed over a 2 year period following her husband’s diagnosis with Parkinson’s Disease, she consistently uses the skirt as her starting point.

The exhibition is showing at FROM THE 3RD TO 15TH mARCH 2010 – Free entry.

I was delighted to be asked to take pictures of my friends chocolate Labrador Max, we headed off to one of his favourite spots to run in Brightlingsea, Essex. I love animals so it was such a treat to photograph him playing having fun…To see the other pictures click here to go to the gallery http://www.pbase.com/wakelin/pet_gallery

Following a shoot on Saturday I decided to go for a walk in Brightlingsea. I followed the path from behind the Beach Huts along by the water to Arlesford Creek. It was cold but a beautiful day and I was so glad I had taken my camera with me. The light was simply perfect and as I wandered about choosing different clouds to shoot I suddenly spotted a dark swarm on the horizon and realise that a large flock of Geese are on the move and heading my way…..

It is at this point I am regretting only bringing one lens with me! As they swoop and curve over, the noise of them chattering and flapping fills the air around me. On the ground their shadows seem to move in slow motion and remind me of a clip I once saw in a Pink Floyd video of dark aircraft shapes moving as one.

I stand in wonder at the ever changing scenery in front of me..

After putting on a very impressive air display they finally settle down in a field near by.

Then I approach the creek which is still and silent and illuminated like a freshly painted picture.

It was great to have the opportunity to have creative fun when taking pictures of Tim. He decided to start a project to have pictures taken of himself when he was diagnosed with having Parkinsons disease so it seemed appropriate to me to include a mirror in the set up of some of the shots to illustrate the idea of looking closely at ones self. Tim doesn’t take himself too seriously so I also wanted to convey a sense of humanity and humour, which is where the idea of holding a brain came in!

My cat has taken to sleeping in our airing cupboard, he is very sweet but he is using up his nine lives very quickly!

 The other day I filmed Alison Cameron as I want people to see how good she is at what she does.
