No full blog this week, I have been busy with my obligations to The PhotoZine Collective, a group of dedicated, like-minded film photographers whose aim is to promote and publish Photo Zines with various themes to guide us.
We have been busy having fun and we have a collection of Mini Zines ready for sale on March 1st via our Ko-Fi site. There are only 12 sets of 17 Mini Zines available which have been lovingly collated and packaged by Ian who put a lot of thought into how to present our fun project, done during the horrid weather we have endured this winter. When a photographer can't get out, it's time to get creative with the photos we have.
Over winter we have also been busy with
our annual Photo Zine to raise money for Asthma & Lung UK, a Charity
close to John Whitmore's family. As I write this the deadline has passed
for submissions and our intrepid editors are busy collating everyone's
work ready for publication in the coming months.
I have to be honest, I thought I wasn't going to be able to contribute to this years Zine, but I made a big effort and now my brain is fried. I am utterly exhausted, both mentally and physically to the point where I am still trying to recover from a photowalk on a rare sunny day near the end of February.
Trying to get photos for a major project and keeping my blog going has been tough this winter. I had to invoke my spare blog, but it was worth it to continue my involvement with this very worthy cause to honour a chap whose infectious enthusiasm for film photography and silly humour enthralled, entertained and inspired us.
More details and previews of our work can be found on the Photozine Collective website with the sale of our Mini Zines going live at 7PM UK time on March 1st via our Ko-Fi site. You can visit both using the links below and we sincerely hope you enjoy them.
