Good times..................

Kane FM has been part of my life since early 2010. Pretty much for the length of time I have been taking photos. These photos where taken during the very first live show.

Being only one of a small handful of stations in the UK to ever be granted legal broadcasting rights, last Friday Kane FM went live on 103.7

A DECADE in the making, Guildford-based Kane FM is celebrating being granted a five-year community radio licence by Ofcom.

Ofcom said: “Kane FM will be a radio service to support the local community in Guildford.

“Its primary focus is 15 to 39-year-old fans of independent (mainly urban) music and it will provide an outlet for showcasing local talented artists and musicians.

“The station will provide opportunities for individuals in the community to become involved with the station and will serve as a way for local events to be promoted to the wider community.”

Kane FM started life as a pirate radio station in the early 1990s, later going on to enjoy a successful 28-day RSL (restricted service licence) in 2004.

Since then the station has been focused on its lengthy community radio licence bid, at the same time maintaining its presence as a brand in the Guildford area through the Kane FM Presents… nights and involvement in the StreetCLASH and Suburban Sprawl events among others.

"Something special"

A delighted Ian Handy said: “It is with great pleasure and immense pride that we can tell the people, our steadfast team and impending listeners, that Kane have been awarded the five-year FM licence.

Good vibes :-)

Jazzy M made his own bit of history by being the first DJ to publicly Broadcast on the KaneFM airwaves.

First attempt at photo manipulation........

Its taken most of the weekend and a lot of improvisation to turn this photo of a dancer.....

To this.......................

~Welcome to the world of photo manipulation~

Night Ghouls and Shapeshifters................

It seems that Halloween will soon fall upon us. PERFECT excuse to get some twisted horror photos in. Lucky for me my house mate Ash has swung over to the dark side recently, preparing props for our Halloween/house warming..........he is the perfect person to bounce twisted ideas off of. 

The theme is 'Twisted Fantasy'. Roping in my fellow Meerkats.........I think we may have pulled this one off :-)

                    Doing this in an ancient Abbey in the pitch black definitely creeped me out a little........

Below is my most favourite picture. Its evil, its dark and reminds me of Pans Labyrinth.

Below are a few taken a little closer to home.......

Creeped out? ................................I hope so

Every picture has a story........

I've spent a lot of time recently contemplating how to display the photos that I take to people. I could have spent a whole lot of money getting a wizz kid to formulate some sort of epic website but then to me, it becomes more business like and quite frankly I'm in it more for the love than the money. My house mate Phil suggested I start a blog..... strangely enough, something I hadn't even thought about.

So here we are........this is going to be my internet photo megaphone. Its taken me 3 hours to even remotely come close to actually getting my head around putting one together. Nothing is ever straight forward. I mean WTF is Favicon??

Im not too sure how I will blog on this blog. It may even blog me off enough to steer clear and carry on using facebook to display my pictures but I'm going in, taking the bull by the horns and getting my game face on!

So here is my first picture
Taken in Siem Reap in Cambodia earlier on this year.
I was taken to a remote village school that I literally thought Bear Grylls would have to throw me over his shoulder to negotiate me through and over the non existent road and into Cambodias 'outback' just so that I would be able to have this awesome experience of backpacking far off the beaten track.

These children rarely have the experience of ever sighting a westerner, let alone one that must have looked like a monolith towering above them with a big camera. The little girl in the middle had me mesmerised. She was beautiful and so innocent to life. These children have nothing.
Its photos like these that truly distinguish the rich from the poor and the materialistic from the spiritual.

There we are, my blog has officially begun.
