Busy day!
Non-stop today! Three photos shoots this morning. Started off at the JJB Stadium for the "Hate Crime Awareness Week" Conference. I was there to photograph various dignitaries posing with a Wigan black cab taxi that's been done up in Hate Crime Awareness livery and will stay that way for a year. It was freezing! Did the shoot in the shade because the strong sunlight would have wreaked havoc with reflections off the cab and the white shirts of Police and Fire Ofiicers present. Group shots and lots of general shots and angles of the taxi for our stock image library.
Shoot two was around Pemberton town centre - a list of shots that the PACT people (Police and Communities Together) want for a publication that's going out.
Shoot three - Worsley Mesnes. Shots at Kipling Park. Litter and graffiti on the various benches and playground equipment. Then onto the precinct behind The Wheel pub for shots of the shops, The Wheel and other stuff in that area. Another big list for the PACT people.
Back to the office then to edit those photos and attend a couple of meetings for graphic design projects I'm working on.
Last today was photo shoot four - Atherton Police Station for a prize presentation to local residents as a result of some football scheme that the Police and local community have been involved in.
Some pix as promised...
Tigers at South Lakes Wild Animal Park last week.
This small zoo is awesome! Much better than places like Chester and Blackpool. You get to see things a lot closer up - and their conservation efforts are more in evidence too.
No fat lazy Tigers here! They have to climb a 30 foot telegraph pole to get their food! These are the world's largest species of Tiger - The Amur (Siberian) Tiger! Awesome beasts and great to see them do more then just pace around the inside of a fence!
(Cute Lemurs tomorrow!)
Here they come! GRUB UP!

Up we go...

Down we come...

MINE!

Yum yum!
