J. knitting
another kind of fashion, this time the knitting craze. Or is it a craze? or just a return to old fashioned values, when making something yourself results in the best quality.
Lovely shot of this lady coping with the intricacies of double knitting needles and sock making. mmm, home knitted socks, fabulous!
claudia in soho
great combination of fashion and street portrait shot. here David went with the model into the streets, this wonderful direct portrait captures that spirit of fashion fabulousness as well as the grey miserable wet streets of London really well.

In the Long Grass
It's always struck me that the long grass on Hampstead Heath is made for wonderful portraits.
This one is no exception, truly beautiful shot, the man's eyes are so sharp and reach out from the shot.

On the Underground
You're not supposed to take photos on the Tube, but it's always so tempting. All of life, going on underground.
Represent!
Out partying in Lonon's parks, this fab shot is from the RISE festival that took place last weekend. Terrific!
watercolour challenge
You wouldn't normally think that a group of watercolouring ladies would venture into deepest soho with their easels - but here they are, painting the street market. Wonderful.

Brick Lane
Up there in my favourite street portraits of all time. What a fantastic pose from this lady, and what a great outfit. Out there and loving it.
People I have asked...
We're getting more people in on the act - great pose, well done Ed for asking this well put together lady.

Outside the RSPCA.
The poor dog, has that "feel sorry for me" face on. Outside Harmsworth Hospital where free check-ups are available. Thanks RSPCA!
Mr. N.
Looks like a holiday snap from the 70s, thanks to the colour in the film. Another piece of holga excellence.

Kevin Hill
Traditional black and white portraiture brought bang up to date in this direct challenging shot from Pete.
is it a lightfitting? For me, that transforms this into a much more interesting photograph.

A very urban shot, very london too. Check out the rest of Robin's work, he's got a great eye and a great connection with his subjects.
Harry Potter look a like?
Maybe Harry in his student days - when he's got some style going on too.
More great stuff from Eamon.
...with mud
part of the whole Glastonbury experience is the fabulous outfits - that doesn't always mix well ith the mud. Here one of our regular contributors somehow manages to keep it off her lovely dress. Well done!

Body Breakin'
the best part of taking a picture is capturing the decisive moment - which is exactly what's been done here. The rest of the crew in the background are looking on with respect too.
