So I've been a Bad Blogger lately, weeks since my last update and all! I do have reason for this but first, on a not wholly unrelated note allow me to introduce you to Mega City Comics.
I love comic book shops and this one is pretty much perfect! Stacks and stacks of comics and graphic novels, collectables, t shirts, posters and amazing colours everywhere while having a dark, cosy feel. It's somewhere to browse and want and buy and enjoy which is about all I look for in a shop, really.
Mega City Comics can be found at
18 Inverness Street,
Camden Town,
London,
NW1 7HJ
about a minute away from Camden Town tube station and is open 7 days a week.

And now, thoughts on being home.
I recently had an internship with a very successful fashion photographer in London (who shall remain nameless). Sufficed to say I learned a great deal, good and bad about the fashion photography industry. In many ways it reinforced what I already knew about my own goals in photography. I was reminded of how highly I value honesty, integrity, creativity and passion by observing these qualities (or lack of them, in some cases) in the photographer I worked with.
Another thing I was reminded of is how much I love where I live. Derbyshire has been my home now for almost eight years and I must confess I came over all Frodo Baggins when I had been away for a few weeks. I love to travel and I enjoyed the thrill of being in the city but I pined for the shire and my inner hobbit is glad to be home.
