Fake Tan Salon Call Out

the Fake Tan Salon is back! And this time we’re bringing sunshine to the Big Smoke.

The sun might be out this week and we should make the most of it but don’t be fooled - blue skies quickly turn to grey in this country. So the Fake Tan Salon is returning to battle the impending April Showers with a photographic dose of Vitamin D and miles of second-hand sunshine to a gallery in London!

We are now calling out for submissions!

Send us your summer/sunshine/beach/blue sky & generally uplifting vitamin D infused photographs!

We need physical copies but keep it cheap - 6x4 prints only cost a few pennies or just use your own printer.

Send submissions to:

THE FAKE TAN SALON

23 Carter House

Brune Street

E1 7NN

London

Don’t forget to put your name on the back so we can credit you.

Deadline: 9.4.13

Exhibition details TBA but will include tropical photobooth, grass skirts, cocktail umbrellas & more!

Follow submissions and progress on tumblr: http://faketansalon.tumblr.com/

Plus: You can now find the Fake Tan Salon on facebook.

Summer with Kodak Six-20 Brownie Junior

More photos made with the battered old Kodak Six-20 Brownie Junior from the family treasure chest. Polka dots and numbers are the backing paper markings on the 120 film, as is that charcoal texture, which I quite like. Almost like seeing the frame numbers when looking at a contact sheet.

Gone Exploring

This blog will be a bit quiet again as I'm off exploring. 

More delayed summer sunshine when I'm back. plus some new stuff too!

Mountain Camp

More road-tripping: waking up under cool forest shade, searching for elusive moufflon, driving through valleys, past fields & orchards to the sun-setting sea...
