christian fundamentalists
now, i'm not easily offended.
i'm easily wound up, i'm easily irratated by 'small' things but actually offending me is more tricky.
(please don't see this as an invitation to try).
last night, at the end of a fun evening of photographing people at the festival, i encountered a guy who was one of the other festival (design) participants.
i photographed him and showed him his picture.
he seemed quite happy until i gave him my business card which has about 100 of my photos on it.
after a while of looking at it (horrified) he said 'i've changed my mind. i don't want anything to do with this. this is wrong. i don't want to be associated to anyone like you who photographs evil people like marilyn manson and these other terrible people'...etc...etc...and worse.
then he threw my card on the floor (he was a tosser: literally) tore up the model release he'd just signed and walked out.
???
i was so shocked that i let him get away without my replying.
although he'll be at the festival today and so will i.
this picture here is from last night: one of spain's champion breakdancers in full flight.
they are part of the house of diehl show, same as us, for this evening...only we won't be breakdancing.
this afternoon (after an extended hungover sleep in) i went for a walk along the beach for a couple of miles and back again.
there's some really interesting, crumbling, old houses here just opposite the sea and the vast, empty sandy beach.
i prefer italian and french food to spanish otherwise a little place to stay here might be on the cards.
it's such a shame that doing what i do i really have to base myself around london, new york, LA, milan or paris.
i wish i could paint or write, then me and mine could live anywhere we liked.
