The best thing...
Interesting end of year chat about important events and moments of 2011. For me this is definitely one of the most important things that has happened and saved hours of wasted time getting between London and the S Coast. Welcome to the Hindhead Tunnel! The gasping sound at the end of the clip is crazy teenager who's been trying to hold his breath right the way through..apparently the latest challenge.

Mountain Man
Preparing for the Haute Route trip next year, Guy skins up a mountain in Tignes, gets to the top desperate for a drink and realises that he's forgotten his wallet. Amazingly the restaurant provided vin chaud on the house!

Heading to the Alps
Driving to Tignes today, good trip until last 10km when chains needed. Masses of snow. Can't remember the last time I needed chains to get up the hill.

Christmas trees
No Christmas tree this year but a Christmas twig! Shot with hipstamatic on new iphone 4S, massive improvement in quality of camera.

Antonia Pugh-Thomas
Unusually, a set of images without people. Shot for Antonia Pugh-Thomas to highlight the skill and craftsmanship on offer to her clients.
www.SportzZone.tv
Looks like the International 14 film made in September now has the lead slot on www.SportzZone.tv, a fast growing internet sports channel.

National Freelancers Day
Surprised to find out on the Today programme that it is National Freelancers Day...we don't normally get that level of recognition! I wasn't shooting today but spent the afternoon at the Barclays ATP Tour Finals at the O2 thanks to a birthday gift of some tickets. Excellent match between Tomas Berdych and Janko Tipsarevic, who almost took full advantage of his late entry after Andy Murray's injury. Image shot on Fuji Finepix X10, latest attempt in the never ending quest to find a useable high quality compact.

RS Tera Nationals
Just reworking some images from the RS Tera Nationals earlier in the summer and found this shot. How intense is that?

International 14 Worlds
Film from the first days racing at the International 14 World Championships in Weymouth. Bad weather has prevented much of the racing from taking place so, as always, it came down to luck (and a bit of careful weather watching) that we were able to shoot anything. Partly shot on Canon 5D2 and 1D4 but also on the water footage from the new Sony NX-70.

Lyon Airport
Needed to fly home from Lyon for a corporate job; potential for a great location shoot in the terminal building where the TGV arrives, acres of space and light with unusual architecture.

Tour de France - Grenoble
Lucky enough to catch the some of the Grenoble time trial stage while in Vizille. Amazing atmosphere in town and got a great spot right on the hairpin. Cav took a major wobble avoiding a pothole but Cancellara was just awesome.

Macmillan Cash Appeal
Macmillan Cancer Support raise some of their funds through direct marketing and these images are from a recent shoot in Birmingham.
Claire
Recently met Claire on a shoot for Macmillan Cancer Support, apparently she doesn't always dress like this.
The Boat Project - latest film

MAN Group
Just wrapped up the photography for the MAN Group report and accounts. As so often happens, I like one of the last frames the best.

25 years after Chernobyl
Last night the kids and staff at Bedales spent a little time thinking about the victims of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster 25 years ago and supporting the charity Chernobyl Children's Life Line. I spent a windy half an hour perched on top of some scaffolding!

Dell
Every so often a quick PR job gets thrown into the mix by a corporate client. In this case, Michael Dell was making a flying visit to the UK and addressing all the staff at the UK headquarters in Bracknell. Usual mix of daylight, fluorescent, tungsten and LED lighting is always a challenge but the original files looked fine, however I think that these are punchier.
