i'm really not a photographer, but i guess i just know what i like. a few found things is just that; a collection of random fleeting moments, caught using mostly amateur equipment and shared on here. there's no plan or design or whatever, it's just a bunch of pictures that i think look nice. hopefully you will as well.

Another shot of the snow, just before Snake’s Pass between Manchester and Sheffield.
Snow covered hills on the way to Sheffield via Manchester, just before Snake’s Pass.
I was in the Her name is Calla van as they had a few January dates in the UK supporting the amazing Cult of Luna, and I thought I’d tag along and sit on their merch desk. The weather had been really bad all weekend, but by the time the van headed for Sheffield, it stopped snowing, so we pulled over to appreciate the view a little.

Manchester again!

Another one from Russell’s house. Loved the geometry and the lighting.
A quick snap of Russell’s kitchen, as I loved the light streaming in through the windows.
Not sure what happened to the camera at this point, but I do like the dreamy element in all the grey dreariness. It was taken down by the Tjorn when me and Sophie were walking back to Russell’s house.
It was taken the day after we’d seen Sigur Rós as the final part of our Airwaves 2012 adventure, so the last two nights we were in Iceland were kind of wind-down ones, and were spent just generally ambling about downtown in the cold. It’d been lovely and bright up until this point, but those last two days were rainy, grey and windy. Probably a sign that we couldn’t beat that first few days topped off with SR in their hometown :)
One of my favourite bands, Apparat Organ Quartet, when they played at KEX Hostel in Reykjavik for Airwaves 12.
Some Icelandic guys having a chat in a little coffee shop we found one day.
Looking out from the top of Hallgrimskirkja, Nov. 2012
Following on from that other shot, here’s a bit of the view I’d never seen!
Inside Hallgrimskirkja, from November 2012.
It’s funny, of all the times I’ve visited Iceland (10 year anniversary of my first trip coming next year! eep!) there were still a lot of things I’d not even tried. With this in mind, me and Sophie decided we’d do as much as we could that we’d not done before, to make the trip something extra special. We started by doing the touristy thing of heading up to the top of the church for a few snaps of the view - something I probably should’ve done a long time ago! It was pretty awesome - seeing the whole city from up high. It reminded me of my first trip, and getting so lost walking around, that I ended up using the massive steeple that dominates the skyline as a sort of compass. It worked as well, and still use it as a method even now!

Looking over Reykjavik from the top of Hallgrimskirkja when me and Sophie nipped over to Iceland back in November last year to see some friends and take in the Airwaves festival.
