We've been picked as one of the exhibitors for this year Foto8 Summer Show 2010 - it runs from 26 July to 4 September!

The Finnish Grilli

There is one thing that all Finnish towns and cities have in common – the grilli, a small fast food kiosk open most hours after dark. The grilli is the place where the young meet, down and outs lurk and dealers hang about.

After last orders on any given Friday and Saturday night people grab themselves a slightly suspicious meat pie with the taste camouflaged by large helpings of strong mustard and other relishes. Sometimes brawls break out between punters at these hives of activity, but generally the Grilli is not a place of danger, just a pit stop to get you home – the main hustlers here are the Grilli owners who most Finns proudly fall pray of – Long live the Finnish Grilli!

ANationADay

Max has started a new project which not only keeps him photographing during the World Cup but also gives him a good 'reason' to watch as much football as he wants...He is photographing a football fan from all the participating nations and posting one on his Blog each day of the games. Attached here is a photo we took on one of these photo/project trips of a man called Nico who was not going to risk not being able to get into a busy pub to see the game and brought his own portable TV - don't you just love German efficiency!!

Village Fetes in South London

This seems to have been the weekend of village Fetes in South London we went to two - one on Albert Square where saw snails being raced...and the other was at Clever Square where we got to see (to Max's horror)a Punch and Judy show...en route home we also saw this abandoned ice cream...

A weekend in Finland

We were lucky enough to be working on a Puukko (traditional Finnish knife) project in Finland last weekend...it involved us spending most of the time in a cellar or by a mosquito ridden log pile, but this aside it is a great project to be working on ... and we'll share some photos with you in once processed!
