Sonya Roseman [photoshoot]

I had a commission shoot today with film

actress Sonya Roseman. We did the 

shoot on a boat on the river Medway

in Kent. I liked this Marilyn pose

of Miss Roseman.

Brush_Chain_Pebble [2012]

Came across this brush and chain in Spain on a beach.

I was drawn to it by the natural composition and 

pastel colors of the paint brush.

fish, sand, pebbles [2012]

I came across this fish

on a beach in the costa del sol.

Even in death this fish

still had beauty.

I wondered how it came to be 

here, its brief life in the ocean

and where to now!

The brilliant 'DEAD KENNEDYS'

Bleed for Me was the sixth single by punk rock band Dead Kennedys. It was released in July 1982. The music is cold and intimidating, and the lyrics describe kidnappings and torture carried out by a secret police (presumably the Central Intelligence Agency). There follows a bridge, then the music becomes light and almost cheerful as the lyrics describe US foreign policy as utilizing murderous dictatorships to secure economic concessions that favor American corporations.

Bleed For Me lyrics

You've been hanging 'round
With an enemy of the state
Come with me to the building
That no-one stops to watch  

[Chorus]
C'mon bleed
C'mon bleed
C'mon bleed
Bleed for me

metal, wood & rope [amonkphotography2012]

I took this photograph at Upnor on the river Medway.

I like its simplicity of design, the texture and the shapes created by the metal tags, 

the lines in the wood and the catch with rope. It has a soft pastel color palette too!

Enjoy!!
