Shooting Against The Clock...
Last week I met up with photographer Olaf Sztaba while he was staying in London and preparing for one of his Visual Poet workshops.
Following our meeting (which was great!) I headed back towards the tube station and checked my train times. Including a short tube ride, I had about 50 minutes before my train departed from Euston.

LIVESTOCK Music Festival 2017...
Music festivals are great, aren't they?!
Food. Booze. Music. Facepaint. Wellies. Atmosphere.
