Interview with Japan Camera Hunter
I was really honoured to be approached by +Bellamy Hunt for an interview on his fantastic camera resource website. You may have come across his "In Your Bag" series, but he also features photographers of different styles too. Thanks, Bellamy. Great work. Check it out here:

What Lies Ahead
I'm not one to title my work, prefering the viewer to interpret the image for themselves, but I couldn't help myself with this one.
Taken on the tiny Maldivian island of Gouridhoo, population bugger all, I captured this young girl, in head-dress, walking round the corner towards her home. Or is it her future?
What lies ahead for this girl is to (possibly) dress like the woman lurking in the shadows. I quite like the way the girl is in bright light, free, young and innocent as all children are, and about to turn a corner into darkness, where her future awaits: perhaps being made to dress like her waiting mother, hidden in the shadows, covered by her dark clothes, unnoticed.
I'm not making a statement on whether this is right or not, but this is how I see this photo. I'd be interested in your thoughts.

I wasn't aware that my visiting friend Mark was doing a running commentary of me street shooting until half way through. It's hardly the best footage of me at work, but it's a bit of fun and for anyone not familiar with this style of photography, it's a little insight into stroboscopic street shooting. I'm just sorry I'm currently not in a position to post up the results. Anyway, enjoy, and apologies for the shaky camera work ;)

It's been a while since I've posted anything on G+ so I thought I'd tease you with some photographs of the Maldivian Island, Uligamu, where we dropped anchor the other day. My first album in a long while. Enjoy.

We've just dropped anchor in Uligamu, after a fractious four-day crossing from Cochin, India. Fire extinguishers went off, alternators weren't charging, engines weren't starting, watermaker has just blown. All these worries go out the window with a wander along the desolate beach of the Maldive's most northern (but one) island. My first album upload in a very long time!

Finalist in the Wanderlust Photographer of the Year
I've been so busy getting the boat ready my photography news has taken a back seat recently. One thing that happened last week was the Wanderlust Photographer of the Year Awards where I was one of the finalists.
The latest issue of Wanderlust travel magazine contains all the shortlisted finalist entries, so if you get a chance to grab a copy, do let me know what it looks like because I'd love to see it in print!
Although I didn't win, it's nice to know my work was whittled down to the last 10 out of over 8,000 entries. The winner of the landscape category in which I was a finalist, sadly died before he discovered he'd won.

Probably later today I'll be publishing a little account of the techno festival they had on Bolgatty Island here in Cochin (Kerala, India). I was mainly shooting off-camera flash but with a cable, so the flash was TTL and not manual as I normally do. If you've ever been clubbing this picture might remind you of your state of mind circa 4am ;)

Looking for Royal Photographic Society Moderators
Next year set sail and will be spending much of my time at sea, all things being well! This means I will be offline for quite a bit of 2013 so I am looking for moderators of the Royal Photographic Society G+ page.
The mods just need to update the page every now and then with RPS news and events, and to circle new followers. The mods should be members of the RPS.
If you are interested, please PM me, +Jamie Furlong.
Merry Christmas!

Stroboscopic Adventures – Part 2
In my previous post I attempted my first stroboscopic experiments on the streets of Cochin, India. Armed with a wireless flash and wide angle prime (28mm equivalent) I managed some interesting results of the local people. I posted the pictures up from two trips on the net and received some useful feedback.
Overall I was pretty pleased with the effect I was achieving. I did encounter a couple of issues though, which I attempted to address on my third outing.
The first issue was using a flash so powerful the background was lost. I got some great portraits with some really harsh contrasts but being so close to the subjects meant the background was lost altogether. I had a long discussion in one street photography group about the importance of background context to street portraiture. I didn't agree with a lot of what they were s... more »
