Sky Labour Leaders Debate

A few shots from the Sky News Labour Leadership Debate in Norwich, where I was the official Sky News photographer. Having left the house at around 6am, it was always due to be a long morning. There were untold amounts of restrictions about when and where I could take pictures, with certain areas out of bounds and no movement when the cameras were rolling. However, a few nice shots came out of it and a decent publication in The Times the following morning too.

Janmashtami Festival

Yesterday I spent a few hours with the wonderful Hindu community of the Bhaktivedanta Manor Temple in Hertfordshire, as they marked Janmashtami- celebrating the birth of Krishna. The temple is the UK headquarters of the International Society of Krishna Consciousness and the event is the largest Hindu gathering outside of India. I'm fascinated by religion and politics, so this was a lovely day out with some bright photo opportunities.
