Lucky Rat

Walking home from central London last weekend, weaving through China Town and suddenly very tempted by a 'lucky rat'. Feel like we could all do with as much luck as we can get at the moment

Night Pine

Rosa took me to see an exhibition by Ryan McGinley today, at the Alison Jacques Gallery off Oxford Street. I'd not come across McGinley's work before and was really glad I went. Its a small exhibition, but I'd recommend dropping by if you were in the area... I liked these two photos a lot: 

 Taylor (Rushing River), 2011

Night Sky (Pine) 2010

I've been avoiding photography exhibitions a bit since overdoing it with my third year dissertation. These McGinley photographs were a good way of easing myself back in, especially because they couldn't be more different to the stuff I was looking at, mainly Walker Evans
