I’ve just finished sorting through my pictures from Trax at Silverstone on Sunday… Pretty pleased with them, although I think we missed out on quite a bit of the show- there was a lot to see in one day!
There’s a small selection of my photograph’s below, clicky-biggy, and click the link at the bottom to open the album with all of my photo’s.
Here’s some of my crowd-shots of Sonic Boom Six opening Reading Festival 2009 on the main stage! Brilliant performance, and no sound problems here! This performance was the day after the gig in the post below.
Some of the pictures aren’t focused or composed quite as well as they could have been, but I don’t have the luxury of press-accreditation, so I was shooting from the hustle and bustle in the audience
These pictures are from Sonic Boom Six’s warm-up gig for their performances at Reading and Leeds festivals; from the Lounge Bar in Alton on 27th August 2009. Support was from Darko, The White Coats and Overthrow.
Considering this is only the third gig I’ve ever photographed and it was very dark I’m pretty happy with the results (even if they are a little noisy), let me know what you think!!
If you’ve never heard of Reuben you should give them a listen! They’re in my opinion one of the best bands in the country, who unfortunately decided to put things on hold, with an “indefinite Hiatus” in June last year. A b-sides and rarities album had always been on the cards; released on the 31st of August, fans will be able to have an almost complete collection of everything Reuben, along with their three albums: Racecar is Racecar Backwards, Very Fast Very Dangerous and In Nothing We Trust.
My CD arrived a few days ago, and it’s fantastic- there’s a few songs I’ve not heard before, and quite a few I know rather well, it’s a fantastic collection, and hasn’t left my CD player since it arrived!
This special box set features rarities and material that has never been released before spread across 2 CDs and a DVD. The track listing and artwork has been carefully put together by Reuben and Xtra Mile for this release.

Give Reuben a listen on youtube/ Spotify/ whatever, and then order the album from Xtra Mile Recordings, and don’t forget to visit the Reuben Website!
I’ve just got an email from my web host, pimping their affiliate links. Which reminded me that since I’ve re-built the site I’ve not actually put up an affiliate link for them.
I’ll be honest; they don’t offer the best, or fastest hosting in the world, however they’re incredibly good value and their support is brilliant. Whilst searching for a host I tried a few different value options, and I’ll be honest, they were all pretty shocking. I’ve now been with Cirtex for over two years, so they must be doing something good!

I'm going to be this site with photography, computing bits, car and mountain bike stuff!
The gallery already has lots of pictures uploaded, from various events such as the Goodwood Festival of Speed, race meetings, and various other car shows. I'll be putting other photographs onto my Alamy account, there's not many on there at the moment, but there are plenty more to come!
I love photography, so if you want me to shoot anything (events, gigs, motor sport, etc.) I'll usually be more than willing! Just contact me and we can see :)
