Scarlets v The Barbarians

Yet another trip to Parc Y Scarlets, this time for the official opening of the ground. With a crowd of 14,450 it was just short of the 14,870 max. Again I was there not to photograph the rugby but to document the event. Pictured here is Welsh singer & president of Plaid Cymru (the Party of Wales) Dafydd Iwan. Dafydd's song 'Yma o Hyd' (Still Here) is the theme song of The Scarlets & is played at the start of every home game.

The Storys in the studio

I was invited to join The Storys while they were recording a few new songs in Tim Hamill's Sonic One studio.

Around the World

Mucking about with Photoshop & trying to get an unusual take on 'Around the World'.

Scarlets v Cardiff Blues

Another trip to Parc Y Scarlets this time to cover the Scarlets v Cardiff Blues. As usual I left the rugby shots up to the long lens boys & girls of the regular press. I took a wander to get those more unusual shots at the ground.

Stereophonics @ Cardiff International Arena

What a great gig with the phonics last night @ the CIA & also an awesome night with Jay. The usual first three songs with no flash in the pit & then we had balcony seats for the rest of the show, QUALITY! The Phonics as usual were nothing less than awesome with a mix of electric & acoustic songs. I hope the photos of Kelly & the boys on my web do the gig justice. As usual we were there to review the gig for Tourdates.co.uk & Jay did the biz HERE. Cheers Deano for the usual help mate.

Llanelli Christmas carnival 2008

A few shots taken at this years Christmas carnival.
Again I used my fave Nikkor 10.5mm fisheye lens.

Last game at Stradey Park

Stradey Park is known the world over as home of Llanelli RFC & The Scarlets. One of the worlds oldest rugby grounds has been replaced by the Scarlets new home of Parc Y Scarlets. The very last game at Stradey was the Scarlets v Bath match but the game played second fiddle to the event & I was there to capture the historic event.

Amsterdam (Jay's birthday)

Jay & I celebrating her birthday in style! Jay & I flew to Amsterdam to celebrate her birthday. Neither of us had been there before but soon made up for it.

Jay in our apartment.

& you thought Holland was flat, not through my fisheye it's not!

London, a family trip & photo shoot

Jay & I took the boys for a weekend away & their first trip to London. We did the tourist things & I managed to pop a few arty shots in along the way. I hope you like them, full gallery coming soon.
