Paris France

Last month I went to Paris Photo with my friends and fellow photographers Charlie and Janie. Me and Janie have both assisted Charlie and I also used to assist Janie. I was generally really lucky and assisted nice photographers but these two also became good friends. We're an odd bunch in a way, you can see people in restaurants trying to suss us out but I like that. We haven't got much in common I suppose other than photography, all being bolshy and enjoying buggering about. That's more than enough though surely.

 

 

Paris Photo itself was great. There's a lot to see and it is pretty overwhelming but there are real gems that make the slog worth it. Check out Julian Germain, Stephen Shore and Johanna Diehl. 

Mexico

I spent February travelling around Mexico on heavily air conditioned buses listening to terrible pop music with Adam (pictured hanging out a a Taco stand). 

It's a brilliant country to potter about in. For one thing all food comes slathered in chilli, salt and lime. Even fruit. The people are welcoming and funny. It has deserts and mountains and brilliant cities where you can guarantee there'll be live music in the local square, teenagers dry humping and old people slow dancing. Ole!
