The First Coloured Photographs

The ethereal images were taken on the beach at Lulworth Cove, Dorset, when Malcolm was 42

THE FIRST COLOURED PHOTOGRAPHS

Just before I went to bed last night, I had a quick flick on the Daily Mail Online for the gazillionth time that day (I'm not even going to lie and say I'm not addicted to it, because that wouldn't be true in the slightest) and I'm rather glad I did because as sometimes happens with the Daily Mail Online, you occasionally come across articles that are actually rather good with this being one of them. The article was all about an English electrical engineer and photographer named Mervyn O'Gorman, who is reputed to heave taken some of the first ever coloured photographs back in 1913 using a special process called Autochrome, which involves using glass plates covered in potato starch grains to add different coloured dyes to photographs. Mervyn's subject matter was his beautiful daughter Christina who he photographed at various locations around the stunning, tranquil Lulworth Cove, Dorset, wearing different kinds of red clothing to compliment the hue of her spiralling strawberry blonde hair. By using additional photography techniques such as a long exposure, large aperture and narrow depth of field, Mervyn created a series of dreamlike, nostalgic, romantic, and ever so gorgeous photographs that wouldn't look a drop out of place amongst the similar photography styles favoured  by modern day photographers both amateur and professional. Mervyn was a pioneer of his time, a man sparkling with a flurry of creative ideas, beautiful visions, an electrical impulse to push the boundaries and explore the realms of photography further than had ever been done before, to see where they might lead.

I adore these photographs because they're so timeless, so innocent, so magical and infused with the most gorgeous gentle colour palette. They celebrate natural beauty and perfectly capture days gone by through Mervyn O'Gorman's  intuitive, sharp and unique creative eye, and I thought it would be ever so rude of me not to share these wonderful photos with you too.

-If you would like to see these photographs on display, they are currently being exhibited at the National Media Museum in Bradford and you can find out more information here. All photographs belong to Mervyn O'Gorman-

Mervyn was known as an early pioneer of colour photography and often used the autochrome process, which involved using glass plates covered in potato starches grains to filter pictures with dye

Christina is seen sitting on the Dorset beach with friends in the 102-yr-old images

Christina's life remains a mystery as there are no recorded detail of the then-teen's life

A collection of pictures of Christina O'Gorman posing for her father, electrical engineer and photographer Mervyn O'Gorman, back in 1913 have been revealed as some of the earliest colour photographs ever taken

The strawberry-blonde teenager wore red, probably at the request of her father as the vibrant colour captured particularly well via the autochrome process

NY Through The Lens

New York City - Sunsets

We stood there,

your hand in mine,

as the skyscrapers 

dotted the horizon

like nervous heartbeats

syncopated in time

to the city’s nervous

energy.



And as the sun caressed

our faces 

with its warmth,



our hearts 

skipped together

over the buildings

towards the horizon

infinite and full

of life.

NY THROUGH THE LENS

Back in June 2012 (almost three years ago now, where has the time gone!) I was lucky enough to go to the mesmerising, electric, beautiful city of dreams that is New York City with my family for a week, and ever since then I've been absolutely, unashamedly, completely and utterly enamoured with it. I've never been anywhere like it before and I doubt I'll ever experience anything quite like it again. It's so hard to put into words just how magical New York is, with the magic being something so gloriously intoxicating that once you feel it pulsing through your veins you can never quiet be the same person again. Experiencing a city like New York changes you, inspires you, influences you, showing you what life can and could be like. Showing you that worlds such as the one existing there, where everything and anything at all is possible, where everyone feeds their all into the heart of the city, keeping it pumping and sustaining the electric hum of life, where life is seized by both hands and lived to the fullest, really do exist. I just love it all, every single part of it, which is why when I discovered the absolutely wonderful, amazing, brilliant blog 'NY Through the Lens' owned by the lovely Vivienne Gucwa, I subsequently fell just a little bit in love with that too. If you have a soft spot for New York City, especially googling pictures of it and subsequently pining away for hours at a time, longing to be there amongst it all, then you'll 1) adore Vivienne's blog and 2) some of those images you've been pining over are very likely to have been artfully shot by Vivienne herself.

Vivienne is a New York native originally from Queens and now living in Manhattan. The story behind her blog is so, so inspiring, with Vivienne originally buying a camera to document the beautiful imagery of New York City, that she would discover whilst taking walks to both explore the city and combat stress. Vivienne then set up a blog, 'NY Through the Lens', to post her photography and share her vision of New York City with the world. Despite being new to photography and subsequently teaching herself everything she needed to know, she quickly amassed over 70,000 followers with her audience now approximating 2,5 million viewers who like me adore her work to an infinite degree. Off the success of her truly brilliant blog, Vivienne has also managed to release a book that documents all her gorgeous photography of New York, as well as travel the world (which she documents on her companion blog Traveling Lens) and turn her passion, talent and love for photography into a hugely successful career, which she absolutely more than deserves. I adore 'NY Through The Lens' because not only does it celebrate, capture and embrace the beauty, magic, electricity and heart of New York City, from the most recognised areas to the wonderful unknown secrets, but also it shares all those things with the rest of the world, transporting that magic worldwide and allowing us non NYC natives to also share that magic, that vision and almost be a part of it all too. So thank you Vivienne, so, so much, for enlightening our worlds with your stunning photography.

New York City - Rain at Night

When I first started delving into photography, one of the earliest conundrums I remember reading about involved the debate between technical perfection and artistic license. It always struck me as an odd topic, particularly since I have always approached my photography as a means to express emotion and mood rather than a way to highlight technical prowess.

It’s difficult to say that there is one right way to approach art since all art is subjective. It’s important though to figure out what you are trying to express. Are you trying to express a…continue reading here…

Coney Island beach at sunset with the Wonder Wheel and the Cyclone. Brooklyn, New York City.

Coney Island is the site of my favorite New York City beach. The Rockaways in Queens have become popular over the last few years and while I have fond memories of the Rockaways (since I grew up in Queens) Coney Island tugs at my heart in the best way possible. There is nothing like standing on the old pier that juts out into the Atlantic ocean while watching the waves crash onto the shore as the lights on the Wonder Wheel and the Cyclone twinkle in the distance like a tiny city of candles.

When I was much younger, I moved to New Mexico for a year and a half. I was in high school at the time and many fellow students would ask me what it was like to live so close to the ocean and I could never quite explain what it was like at the time. I was always at a loss for words. It was what I grew up with and it was hard for me to imagine life without access to the ocean.

Years later, it’s still hard to fully put into words what it is like: breathing in salty ocean air, viewing the night sky while listening to waves, the feel of cool sand on bare feet, jumping through the ocean with wild abandon. 

I think I keep taking photos in an attempt to further explain what the ocean means to me. Isn’t that why we write, take photos, paint, dance, create music and engage in a variety of other artistic pursuits? It’s to put into form those feelings and experiences that remain otherwise formless.

Summer is a kiss 

from the sun 

that lingers 

on the city’s lips: 

a whisper of a

And its light 

imprints itself 

onto the city’s heart 

forever.

New York City - Autumn - Central Park - Lake

Autumn is the kiss that summer lingers a little longer for;

a warm whisper caressing winter’s ear.

And as the trees arch their arms towards the earth, 

heavy with summer’s promises,

winter’s grey sky looks on

in envy.

New York City skyline and the Roosevelt Island tram

The Roosevelt Island Tram has been taking commuters from Manhattan to Roosevelt Island since the 1970s. It was completely renovated and modernized in 2010. Its highest point is 250 feet up in the air and it travels alongside the Queensboro Bridge above the East River. 

I have always referred to it lovingly as the slow amusement park ride in the middle of New York City. The views of midtown Manhattan’s skyscrapers as the tram car moves up and over the changing cityscape are absolutely breathtaking. 

It’s the closest I can get to my childhood dreams of soaring above and through the city like Batman.

Chrysler Building, Tudor City, and the New York City skyline

—

This has always been one of my favorite views of the Chrysler Building. This particular image was taken with the Sony A77 while on a boat in the East River. The buildings in front of the Chrysler Building are the buildings of Tudor City. 

Tudor City has a rather interesting history. Before it was Tudor City, it was known as Goat Hill due to the large amounts of goats that roamed the area in the 1800s. In the mid 19th century, the area was known as Corcoran’s Roost, named after the founder Jimmy Corcoran. Violent crime and waterfront piracy dominated the area during the 19th century. It wasn’t until the early 20th century that Tudor City took shape when a real estate developer decided to impose his vision of an urban paradise on the area. Its name is a bit of a misnomer since the architecture that dominates Tudor City is mostly neo-Gothic.

The area has also been used quite a bit in different films throughout the years such as: The Godfather Part III, Scarface,The Peacemaker, Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2,Spider-Man 3, Splash, Taxi Driver, and The Bourne Ultimatum.

Early Sunday morning on Orchard Street. Lower East Side. New York City.

On cold city mornings, birds pepper the bone-white sky with movement. 

And through the haze left over by clouds caught in the scuffle between autumn and winter, the wind rushes through the streets like the ghosts of yesterday’s thoughts.

The Interchange #4


THE INTERCHANGE #4

Another Sunday another radio show! Today's show was quite possibly one of my favourites, especially in terms of the new music I played. By searching the depths of Noisetrade as per usual, I somehow managed to salvage some really, really, really good music by some absolutely wonderful and super talented new or lesser known artists including Courtney Barnett, Highly Suspect, Gregory Alan Isakov, Gill Landry and St Paul & The Broken Bones (who may or may not have received a highly enthusiastic, capitalised tweet...). Like always I also played some crackers from more well known artists like the Foos, Fleetwood Mac, Carole King and Oasis, and all the wonderful music cumulated together lead to me being unable to resist having a good old singalong in the privacy of the Fuse FM studio. Top it all off with the fact it was sunny and warm outside, and that I've had a rather wonderful weekend save for the pesky cough I've somehow acquired in the midst of the glorious weather, and  I'm having sausages for dinner tonight *woop woop* and it all made for a really fab show that had me remembering just how much I love being on the radio. Tis awesome, really awesome, and with that here is today's playlist for you to enjoy....

Vogue Covers


VOGUE COVERS

On Wednesday I did what I always do on Wednesdays up here in Manchester and made my way up to Central Library in the sunshine, to take a browse at the books on offer (of which there are sooooo many to choose from). I stopped going to the library back home because the librarians there seemed to just hate teenagers, but as someone who loves books to a ridiculous amount and constantly feels the need to be reading something, and without breaking the bank too, the library is essentially my spiritual home. So naturally when my friend suggested we join up at the library in Manchester back in February, I jumped at the chance and like I said before it's something of a weekly ritual for me because I just love reading new things, gaining new information, exploring my literary horizons so to speak.

Now on this particular visit I happened to wander around the art and design section, and what should catch my eye but a book entitled 'Vogue Covers; On fashion's front page', edited by Robin Derrick and Robin Muir. I picked it up out of curiosity and am so, so, so happy I did because it's literally a bible of some sorts, filled from cover to cover with all these gorgeous, beautiful, inspiring images that have graced Vogue magazine over the decades. The covers range from the sublime art deco-esque illustrations of the 20's and 30's right through to all these iconic photographs from the 60's through to the 00's of truly stunning fashion icons, like Kate Moss, Jean Shrimpton, Naomi Campbell and Twiggy. Every page is a source of mesmerising artistic inspiration and I'm love with every image I come across. It's also so interesting to see how fashion has evolved over the years, intertwining itself with the trends, technologies and influences available to keep on the forefront of modern times. What constituted as 'high fashion' back in the early 1900's, and how it was conveyed through the media, is so different to what high fashion is perceived as nowadays, and despite how much I love the fashion industry I've grown up with for the most part, it does make me long nostalgically for the fashion industry that existed almost a century ago. So to celebrate the old, the new and everything between, here are some of my favourite covers from the book....

Ten Things I've Learnt From My First Year of Uni


TEN THINGS I'VE LEARNT FROM MY FIRST YEAR OF UNI

As my first year of uni slowly comes to an end I've found myself thinking a lot about everything that's happened to me over the last year. Going to university is nothing like I imagined it be but in the best way you could imagine. It's been amazing in an infinite number of ways that I never would have thought could be possible. This time last year I had an idea in my head of what to expect from the whole experience, founded from various things I'd read and heard from numerous sources, but honestly the whole 'me going to uni' thing felt like something that would never actually come true. Even the morning I woke up on the day I moved out, I remember still feeling like it wasn't all real because right up until my parents left me in my new room, everything I'd done in preparation for uni felt like something I was doing just because I had to. It felt like I was just going along with something, playing a role set out for me, with my heart only half in it the whole time. I wanted to be there but I didn't at the same time, however when I then realised there wasn't a lot for me back home any more and that this really was my1 future and a step that had to be made, I decided that all I could do was embrace it all, and embrace it I most certainly did.

A lot of people have an idea in their head of what uni is like, I know I certainly did, and for quite a while I felt like I had to somehow try and live up to this uni student stereotype and do the whole uni experience 'the right way'. But somewhere along the line it occurred to me that there really is no right or wrong way to do uni. Being on my course especially, which is filled with so many different people from different backgrounds and circumstances, also helped me to realise that there isn't one kind of student and one kind of life you can lead at university. Being at university, as I've discovered like so many others, is one of the biggest learning curves you will ever go on. It's a period of self discovery, with university essentially giving you everything you need to do just that and catalyse that discovery into motion. People take what they choose to from uni and conduct their experiences as they choose. You build your experience up yourself, using everything that's there on offer for you, and it really is exactly what you choose to make it. Changes are made with or without realising, crazy and wonderful things can happen, and the life you always dreamed of having somehow becomes yours. And one of the best things is that by the time you finish, your story will be unique to you. No-one else's story will be quite like yours, and I think that's actually rather wonderful. 

So as you can probably tell, I have quite a big soft spot for university, and as my first year is almost done and dusted *cry cry cry* I thought I'd share with you guys ten things, out of a list of of millions, that I've learnt during my time here so far.....

-WHAT I'VE LEARNT-

1) Say yes to everything where possible because some of the best things I've done so far (of which there are a hefty few) have happened because I thought to myself 'oh why the heck not' and just said yes.

2) Everyone says it, but really do join some clubs or societies even if you don't end up sticking at them for long, because it's just fun to try new things or keep up with things you used to do back home, as well as meet new people.

3) Skype is a gift from the gods and is amaaaaazing for contacting family and friends from miles and miles away. It's so easy to do and when you end the conversation (which is always the hardest part), it feels like you've literally just been in the same room together and like you've just seen your loved ones (which you have in a way), and it's a fab way to curb any homesickness or friendsickness.

4) Make sure you take the time to explore your new home and see what there is to do, as well as get familiar with where everything is and what it all looks like. If like me you've grown up in the same place your whole life, and subsequently know it like the back of your hand, it's a little bit disorientating moving somewhere completely new, so getting to know the city better both helps you to feel a little less lost and make it really feel like your new home.

5) Don't be afraid to talk to people and strike up a conversation, and talk to anyone and everyone even if it seems they couldn't be more different. Nine times out of ten they're more than willing to talk back, and it will make you feel a whole lot better. Admittedly it can be super hard to do at first, and harder still when everyone appears to know each other already or have their friends, but you've just got to be brave my friend because anyway who doesn't love gaining a new friend right?

6) Try and initiate things with your new friends/ flatmates and start doing things together as quickly as possible, even if you still don't know each other that well, whether that be going to park, town, clubbing, bars, flat dinners, movie nights, baking, sports.... I met my friend Anilah on my first day in uni when I went over and spoke to her, and within half and hour of speaking to her I suggested we walk into town ad have a look around together, and she is now one of my best friends up here. The day after I suggested a group of us go to the park in the sunshine, which we did and it's just nice because it makes you feel less alone, and like everything really is going to be alright!

7) Try not to go home too often because I found that by doing that, I came to feel a lot more comfortable and at home in my new city, as well as a lot less homesick, then some other people I know who went home more. It forces you deal with any homesickness, boredom, loneliness etc. by getting out there and doing something, whether that be going into town, chilling with your flatmates, arranging things with your friends, exploring the city, doing your work.

8) It's okay not to be a big drinker or likewise drink no alcohol at all. When I started uni I was petrified that I would have to get plastered at any social occasion and drink vast amounts of alcohol till I was absolutely wasted, something that just isn't me. But I've since come to realise that peer pressure is something that is so easy to deal with just by saying no, and that when it comes to alcohol at the end of the day 1) you are in charge of what you drink and how much alcohol you choose to put in your body, no-one else, so do what you're happiest doing, 2) you don't always need it to have fun (I've actually been out completely sober) and 3) don't be afraid to stick true to your beliefs or likewise experiment a bit, try new drinks, find your limit.

9) Keep a loose weekly budget just to keep things in check and give you an idea of what you're spending your money on, as well as making sure you're not spending more than you can afford to. However at the same time don't be afraid to go out and do things, or likewise try to keep yourself in check and find a happy medium where you're savvy with your money and can subsequently do some, maybe even all of the things you want to without breaking the bank. 

10) Just enjoy it, and don't compare your life to other people's so much. You've worked so haaaaard to get to uni, so embrace it, have fun, explore, discover, meet people, do fun things, do crazy things, make things happen, try new things, take opportunities that come your way, enjoy your life and everything and everyone in it, chill out, work hard when needed, be happy, make changes that will make you happy, be independent, be creative and just make the most of it all.

The Interchange #3


        

THE INTERCHANGE #3

Yesterday after what seems like a rather long time, I got to do my beloved radio show 'The Interchange' (one of my absolute favourite things to do) at my uni's Fuse FM radio station. All week long I'd been searching all around the depths of my music library and sources for different songs, artists and inspirations that I could possibly play on my show. I love the process behind assembling my radio show because it makes me listen to everything in a new way, and really appreciate the beauty and artistry behind each song. It also often leads me to discovering so many new and incredibly talented artists waiting for their time to come and get their music out there into the world, as well as re-discovering songs I've heard so many times before or long forgotten about. I know that every time I do a radio show I end up writing one of these gushing posts, very much like this one, but I just honestly cannot help it because doing my show is one of the best things to happen to me and I adore the whole process from start to finish. Even though my show always ends up being 50% me rambling on and 50% music, so it isn't a slick mean radio show machine, I'm still so proud of it and that week after week I get to celebrate music all over again and share it with you guys. Tis awesome, and so like always, it would be rather cool to share with you the playlist from yesterday's show, and if you like any of the artists from the first part of the show, head to Noisetrade.com and search their names to find some free tracks...

David Pavon Benitez


DAVID PAVON BENITEZ

Literally minutes before I left home to come back up to Manchester, I asked my sister if she had any Tumblr likes to show me, because she always likes to make a little list of the things she's found, liked and wants to share with me. As she was scrolling down her Tumblr feed, my eyes were instantly captivated by this post showing a serious of gorgeous artwork depicting Disney films and characters. Naturally because I adore Disney and anything related to it, I made her stop scrolling so I could find the name of the artist in question. Turns out it was the wonderful David Pavon Benitez. Hailing from Granada, Spain, David is a freelance development artist, storyboard artist and character designer with a whole backlog rich with amazing illustrations done in beautiful soft tones and with a dash of magic intertwined somewhere along the way. His artistic vision, mastery and skill-set is truly stunning and looking through his vast array of artwork is a real joy to do. David's style of art, so graphics lead and depicting magical worlds and imagery unlike anything ever seen before, conjured up using just one person's artistic, imaginative vision and swift, skilled movements of their hand, is one of my absolute favourite kinds of art. To me, artists like David are the ones with the true talent, and so with that, I would love, love, love to share with you some of my favourite pieces of David's, and hopefully spread a little happiness and magic into your life too.

-All images are taken from and belong to David's Facebook page, which can be found here and is a real must see!-
