Description my contribution to the photo shoot last weekend
my inspiration in photography was David Bailey in the 1960's and I have been worried recently that my "eye" is not all it should be, many of my shots disregard straight horizons...
this pic made me check Baileys latest work... he seems to be doing the same
I suppose he has a disregard for convention and the "rules" of photography, a healthy trait

Bailey was the darling of photography in the 60`s, he was the subject of a film "Blow up" and was a fashion and portrait photographer for Vogue etc
happy you discovered him
