Kinky the Cat at Christmas
Breathalysing the World's Greatest Tea Drinker.
Rusty got breathalysed tonight after I did a lecture in Kingslynn. We thought we had got away at a decent time, only to be pulled over because one of our headlights didn't appear to be working. When I got out it was. It must have been a bad connection he says and then proceeded to breathalyse Rusty. He was totally negative of course. At least this policeman didn't threaten to arrest me this under the terrorism act though, when I went to take the pictures.

I dream of being young again.....................
The Lab rats dressed up for Halloween. Didn't take a lot of effort for me, as
most of my wardrobe consists of Goth / Witch type clothes.

My friend Malcolm Bumstead slipped on a banana skin at work whilst carrying a box of tomatoes. That sounds so hilarious, but in fact
he broke his ankle in two places and will off work now for months. So a challenge was given for fellow 'Beyond Group' members to
create a banana shot in honour of poor Malcolm to cheer him up. This is my attempt.

Met up with some internet friends formed through '7 days of shooting' on Flickr. Janet was visiting from Arizona so we met up in Camden.
A great day was had by all. Photographed by Rusty :- Me & Luke, Janet & Pat by the Canal.
We spent a very pleasant Bank Holiday with friends down at East Mersea. Eating, drinking and generally having fun.
Skye is growing up so quickly, now 17 months.
I was so lucky to be invited by Mick Goad to join him for a flight around Suffolk in his Microlight. It was fabulous.
As honoured guests, we had a wonderful meal with Chrissie & Colin Westgate on Valentine's Day. Along with another special guest in the name of Joe Cornish, who also treated us to a showing of some of his superb landscape pictures.
There was something kicking off at Bishop's Stortford tonight and so I went to investigate.
I was then threatened with arrest by this man because I photographed him in a public park.
He told me it was against the law to photograph him!
When I challenged him on what charge, he responded with the anti-terrorism act!
He pointed a bright torch into my eyes as he continued to interrogate me for quite some time. He wanted my name and address, which I gave him. He wanted to see proof of my ID, but then wouldn't accept a credit card, bank card, photographic membership card, store card etc., as proof of ID. The bright light still burning into my eyes as he wanted to know why I was there, where I had come from etc.,. Threatening all the while to arrest me for photographing them.
He then changed tack and said it was illegal to photograph the under 16 year old's that were in the park????? I explained that I hadn't photographed them yet, but even if I had, it was not illegal to do so!
He then insisted that I delete all the images from my camera, to which I refused. I told him he had no right, but he still insisted. I continued to refuse ............ awaiting imminent arrest by now. He then requested to see the images, which I was happy to do. Only to be disappointed myself with the results............... All this hassle for nought really.
But I would just like to name and shame this man. I don't know who he is and in reality don't want to get acquainted. Not the sort of policeman to be proud of. A bully basically. He saw me as an easy target. A little woman alone, armed with nothing but a camera. WRONG WOMAN TO PICK ON FELLA!
But who is he. He needs to be named and shamed!
What had he got to hide is my biggest question!
Whatever it is, he is a disgrace to OUR police force!
Ironically, the policewoman who was with him, very kindly suggested that If I really wanted to take take Candid shots, why didn't I go to the fairground within the park, ........... which would mostly consist of .............. dare I say it ................ kids under 16 ???????

To see the images taken during my weekend at Salve Mater in Belgium
Went all the way to Bristol, a 400 mile+ round trip just to see an art exhibition. But not just any old exhibition but the 'Banksy v Bristol Museum' Exhibition. We queued for 2.5hrs in the rain without coats or a brolly but it was worth every raindrop.
One of my favourites by BANKSY
And just one of many superb animated exhibits also by BANKSY. But you needed to look carefully everywhere throughout the museum as he has snuck in a few of his own amongst the serious displays.

* 'SUFFOLK MOTHS'
Now about me!
'BarbieArt' ~ Photograph by Rusty Lindsay
I am a little unconventional.
I'm a photographic obsessive. My whole life revolves around photography. I love every aspect, whether it be taking photographs or looking at other people's images and analysing the content. On a personal level, to work on, print and then to see the final mounted print is sheer magic.
I found my last project of 'People with Character' a lot more enjoyable and less stressful than my 'Suffolk Moths' project. Some of these images however, have been deemed to be too controversial by some narrow minded bigots, (not the moths) but I feel that true photographers should embrace all aspects of photography and not judge images on whether they would look good hanging on their living room walls. Not every image should be a pretty picture, but instead should convey a message or evoke a reaction from the viewer.
Another of my favorite subjects is 'Humour'. Humorous pictures have been playing 2nd fiddle for far too long within the art world, not just in photography but in every art form. Personally, I think this is a great shame, as quite often it's the humorous pictures that have a far more lasting impact upon the viewer than almost any other image.

I will take on almost any photographic assignment, BUT only if it appeals to me. Money is not the main issue by any means.
