Well been a while since I updated here.  So here is a new start and hopefully this time it will last.  I’ve revamped the website to cover both photography and everything else I do.  The website is still getting updated bit by bit and at a very slow pace.  In the coming weeks I don’t forsee that much heavy revision.  Perhaps just some catching up with some old posts and news.  I hope to expand this section further to include some reviews of the gears I have, photo tips, book reviews and just about everything else.   So watch this space.

Lack of posts and updates are due to exam time and revision.  Just finishing up my master’s degree, final few exams to deal with and then I should be all done.  Exams finish in June and I should be able to start some more photography and web work soon.  My camera is just sitting in the corner gathering dust.

Having said that though, I have been spending lots of time browsing the web and have got a few new photo styles to test out.  Most of these will be portraits in studios or on location around Bristol.  If you are around and fancy joining me for some photo fun come June, give me a shout.

Had a break from revision today and went to watch some bball. Unlike the states, bball isn’t all too big in comparison here in the UK. Nevertheless there was a fair amount of turn out and I was able to snap up some good pics. The games themselves are quite good. The Bristol Uni girls beat the UWE girls 65-15…not a surprise since Bristol girls are in the top 8 in the nation i think. The guys game was much more intense with both sides tied at 46 pts with 1:05 to go. In the end Bristol beat UWE again by 3 points. Check the photos:

After 4 years at university, Jo’s finally convinced me to get my own website/domain, although revision procrastination was a big motivating factor. Without further ado here is my official site: www.boandbro.com.

.

As for the name, yes I do have a brother, and no he is not working with me in photography. Not yet at least, although he may be in the back of my head as a subconscious motivator. I would’ve loved to get bozhang.com, but that was taken by a giant finger nail sculptor. Any name photography related would’ve been a bit tacky and probably not too useful when i decide to stop the photography business and move on to olive oil or the bagel market. I did look into bonana.com and bolongaise.com, but to no avail, all taken. So were www.bo.bo (courtesy of bolivia) and bo.bz (belize). Hence I end up with a wonderfully catchy (if only a bit too American, as a friend had commented) website of BoAndBro.com. Almost a follow up to boandjo.com come to think of it.

As I mentioned, this has been a big revision procrastination effort, I’d highly recommend every student to get their own website. Instead of killing off 1 or 2 hrs watching neighbors or topgear…this website thingy takes over one’s life almost. I haven’t done any proper work during the last two days. I’ve had a blast tutorial of php/html (thx to Jo) and also a self taught design exercise using Dreamweaver. Hopefully the commercial site (www.boandbro.com) brings the words: smart, classic, clean, sharp, sexy to mind rather than botch-job etc.

When I get more time (tomorrow), the gallery will be posted and all will run smoothly.

Until then…sweet dreams.

ps. Formula 1 tomorrow! come and watch kimi whoop some lewis ass.
