Tim Walker in British Vogue

I bought April's British Vogue the other day and I did it for the spreads (and I'm not talking jam and peanut butter) one in particular appealed to my kooky sensibilities, photographer Tim Walker did an awesome job.

 What's up with that umbrella, how is it even staying up there, and why? (Those are the big questions).

 I like the dollishness of this one, though it has nothing on the next one.

 Barbie gone wrong. It's amazing how unreal and, yes, all made out of plastic she looks behind that bubble.

  Patron Goddess of Clowns. Love it. This one was actually a two pager but my scanner wasn't big enough. The other page had a big parrot on it, which you can see in another shot further down.

 This ones prettier than the others with the ruffly top and pink smoke, that combined with the surrealist setting is what makes it for me.

 Another doll.

And here's that parrot, what a beauty.

This isn't the entire spread but it's my faves, hope you like them too.

Picture of the Week and Other Goodies

I’ve been catching up on my America’s Next Top Model (one of many guilty pleasures) and collecting names of brilliant fashion photographers. As such today’s Picture of the Week is an invocative shot (imho) by photographer Deborah Anderson.

Gorgeous right.

I wanted to try something else today as well. In my study at home I have various corkboards covered in pictures and notes and what have you which I call inspiration boards (I think I stole that from somewhere). Anyway, I was originally going to take a photo of one of these boards and post it, but with my limited photographic skills the board always warps in a fishbowl sort of way. So rather than show you a bulbous cork board with unrecognisable images I thought I’d build a digital inspiration board using Photoshop and featuring our very own PICTURE OF THE WEEK!

Hmmm… It’s ok but I think I rushed it and the ones on my wall are better, no strike that it’s growing on me, I’m quite fond of it.

So as best I can I’ll tell you who the images are by or where I got them in order from left to right moving down the image:
