photography and other things
So I entered a online photo competition (not something I ever do normally) run by Eversure (the company I insure my camera and lenses with) on Facebook and won… as you do… This glorious victory means I get worldwide insurance for my gear for a whole year for free. Which is nice 🙂 My winning (did i mention i was a winner?) photograph was taken on my knees on Victoria Dock in Hull just next to where the new Siemens factory now is and where…Continue Reading “Eversure Competition Winner”
The black death slide 3 years ago to the day whilst out with my camera I almost died in this building, sliding slowly but inevitably downwards as the broken boards gently gave-way – into a hole in the floor downwards through the thick silent blackness downwards into a cold black death soup. As i slid deep into the black thick water i reached no floor, only my left hand clutching at the hole edge kept me from slipping further to my journeys end at bottom…Continue Reading “An almost death”
New website for Phill Clarkson One of the other things i also do is build websites for people… I used to hand-code them but these days folk want so much interaction with their clients and visitors that this became far too onerous to do by hand, so now I tend to use the ‘WordPress’ Content Management System (CMS) for all my needs.

None of the images are related to or…Continue Reading “Pave Exhibition”

March My first exhibition of 2017 will be at the Kardomah94 on Alfred Gelder Street in Hull starting on Monday March 6th and (afaik) running for the whole month. This was initially to be a joint show with the always-excellent David Drasdo but he has had to withdraw. The exhibition is part of a year-long series of shows organised by ‘Photography from Hull and Beyond’ (PfHAB) and my work will now be on display alongside some other members of this highly talented Facebook group. Unless…Continue Reading “Kardomah94 Exhibition”
