I mentioned in my previous post about how cool it had been making new friends on flickr whilst completing my 365days self portrait project….and it has been nice since the completion to meet a few more of them in real life. The weekend just after threesixtyfive ended Me and my mate Darren (above red teeshirt) were lucky enough to get a visit from our mutual flickr friend fwumpbungle (Paul) (also above) who incidently was one of the people who inspired me to embark on such a ridiculous project in the first place and gave me the name disco~stu. As we expected he is a real top geezer in real life just as he comes across on his flickr stream. We had a great day and were really thankful to him for making the long journey from stafford to come and spend a day at the seaside with us…..was fab. Cheers Mate. You can catch more photos from the day here.

….and you would think that would be exciting enough but the following weekend we were visited by not one but THREE talented photograhers from London. I refer to the amazingly cool bigcrustyape (Nathan), susan&her5D (Louise) and gtvone (Simon). I’ve had the pleasure of being in the company of these peeps before when me and the girls met up with them in London during our summer hols this year but it was really cool that they could come and visit us by the seaside….I really don’t think I’ve had so much fun in one day for a long time (well at least since the previous week…lol). We ended up shooting on the beach (amongst other places) and even did a bit of dressing up (like you do)…..below is a slideshow of some of my shots from the day. I recommend checking out their streams to find more!
