Sun spots

This old lady is waiting for a bus and with a pigeon for company. Take a look at her face - I love that the open-weave of her hat has created a pretty design on her face.

How it's done!

Perhaps the youngest ever participant in PhotoMenton's Photo Marathon yesterday. Elizabeth, an adorable two-year old from Nice, sporting the required safety waistcoast, shows us all how its done.

The 40 teams who took part spent the day searching Menton for the best possible images to fit the three Themes: Vintage, Connected and Pollution.

The Photo Marathon is always the best fun.

'Mon Billet Doux à Naples"

'Mon Billet Doux à Naples' - that's the title of my exhibition at PhotoMenton this year - 'My love letter to Naples.'

I fell in love with Naples and its wonderfully joyous people when I was lucky enough to participate in Carla Coulson's brilliant photography workshop in September.

This photo was taken in the cathedral on the day of the Feast of San Gennaro - the day the whole of Naples prays that the saint's blood will liquify. This signifies good luck for Naples for the coming year. A very important and emotional day for Neopolitans.

If you are in the Menton area, do come along to PhotoMenton during the next 9 days at the Palais de l'Europe. You'll find me at Stand number 80. And you'll find 109 talented photographers exhibiting so many different and imaginative styles of photography. A feast for the eye!

Hope to see you there!
