Legally Uploaded, and a Nerd Moment in Manchester

A few entries back I mentioned that I'd done a portrait shoot at the offices of Central Chambers, a law firm based in the centre of Manchester, at the behest of my friend Ben Knight.  Ben is one of the barristers who practices out of the Chambers, and he's also the man behind the Manchester Phoenix Podcast, so we often cross paths in buildings where big sweaty men grind against each other and attempt to score.  Thankfully I'm talking about the ice hockey here...

Anyway, the shots that I did for Central Chambers have now gone live!  Here's the shot that I did of Ben, to show the kind of portraits that I was providing:

The shots have been converted into black and white for upload, and I'm very pleased to be able to show you them in all their glory!  Here's a screengrab of Ben's profile page:

Seeing my shots being used on a corporate site is actually quite a nice feeling!  The staff at Central Chambers were very welcoming to me, and took it in their stride when it was their turns in front of the camera.   The results of the shoot can be seen on the Central Chambers website, by clicking the links on the Members drop-down menu: Central Chambers website

Today I was back up in Manchester again, this time in a different part of the city.  Myself and a colleague were at MediaCity in Salford Quays to visit the post-production facilities at Salford University, on a fact-finding mission.  Despite not having my main Nikon cameras with me, my old philosophy of always carrying a camera of some kind with me paid off, when we popped into the BBC's studio reception area and spotted these little beauties!:

You've just got to take your nerd moments where you find them!
