The Leafman Prophecies

As im aware, this could be percieved as insanity, perception being the toolbox for reality, weve got a utility belt.
Working for the press can suppress. So were trying to do things a little different. Every year theres certain inevitable stories which will be published from...economic turbulence to freak weather conditions all the way through to footballers behaving badly. It can get pretty mundane capturing the same shot year in year out so as press photographers by trade, its our job to find a new approach to find/make/manipulate a picture to make it feel new,sometimes it works most times it doesnt but its important to exercise the fat obese lazy creative fucker in our heads. some are quite happy with the kid sledging picture every year and will continue to be so until they hang their cameras up. Some people just arent that creative, im not having a go, its just the way it is.
Anyway...in pictures we tried to to show that winter was late...a mundane topic full of climate propaganda created by slow news days,.make of it what you will, we had a laugh doing it and it wasnt just for the papers it was a good form of exorcism and a way of working that beats the shit outta the ordinary press stuff.  Heres to thinking out of the box, or maybe thats what everyone does now, so theirs more space inside the box..
get um out! MERRY CHRISTMAS X
