Image magazine (issue 406) is running an editorial (The White Stuff) in the recent snow falls. I am really happy to announce that they not only chose one of my images from the "Wish series" shot in Brighton, to illustrate the piece but also decided to run the story behind to open the magazine, in the humorous editorial note written by Helena Rhodes (the editor). This is the introduction of it: "It's rumoured that the BBC is putting its weather forecasting contract to tender. They should sign up Poppy Lichtenberg immediately.Poppy is the daughter of André Lichtenberg who tells us of the part she played in the recent snowfalls..."

Brightest Full Moon of 2010

Last Saturday night,  28/01/2001 I went out with artist Gavin Peacock:   www.themanfromicon.com  - to photograph and film the brightest full Moon of 2010. The Moon was at its closest perigee. In other words, the nearest it gets to Earth (app.356,593 kilometers) during its elliptical shaped orbit. Gavin and I were both working on separate projects, but it was great to have company while working for several hours at night in deserted locations. For our luck it turned out to be totally clear night and the conditions were just perfect. I have created a whole new series of images and a time lapse movie (using very long exposures) which will be in the site soon...  meanwhile you can see one image (attached below) created in the south coast of Sussex.
