Buxton Art Fair 2nd to 3rd September 2017

We are exhibiting in Buxton Pavilion Gardens marquee this weekend, 10am to 4.30pm both days. Free entry. Lots to see.

Lots of photos, including clearance pricing on 1 metre prints.

Snowy Peak District

I'm in Buxton Pavilion Gardens running Gallery in the Gardens all day. After 6 days at the Ideal Home show in Earls Court in London and 5 at the NEC immediately before that it was good to get out walking the hills for a change.

What a day we have here in the Peaks! Wall to wall sunshine with a dusting of snow on the tops. Lots of ice though so a bit slippery. It's a 6 mile walk over the hills to get here but I grabbed a few shots on my Samsung S3 phone and edited them to black and white using the editor in Google+ photos on my Nexus 10.

I had intended to take more photos of London during and after the show but decided it was too much for my bad back so we've decided to go down after Christmas, weather permitting. Shame though as we had 4 good days which would have been great for photos. We did manage to walk in and out to the show for the first 4 days, 3 miles each way but the only greenery we found was walking through Brompton Cemetery, a large green space just south of Earls Court. No peaks though!

Buxton Artist and Designer's Fair Today

We are exhibiting at the Artist and Designer's Fair in Buxton Pavilion Gardens. Nearly 50 top quality exhibitors, and it's a lovely warm, sunny day.

The show ends at 4.30pm today, Sunday 30th June, so still plenty of time to come and visit us. New Buxton photos on show too including the Opera House at night and Broad Walk from both ends. Also a new Bamburgh Castle image. Several new 1metre panorama's too.

Last Day of Buxton Easter Fair and Book Signing Today

It's the last day of the Easter Fair in Buxton Pavilion Gardens.
Jan will be running our stand on her own while I continue signing books in the Tourist Information Centre area, near the Gallery in the Gardens. The show opens at 10am and ends at 5pm. The weather has been great, albeit a bit cold. Still snow on the ground but all roads are clear. Hope to see you there!

I finally remembered to take a picture of the stand on our little Lumix DMC-FX550 digital camera and here it is. It's a few years old but still takes pretty good quality images.

Book Signing Buxton Pavilion Gardens Tourist Information Centre Today

I'm in Buxton Pavilion Gardens Tourist Information Centre all day today doing a book signing. City Light available in Buxton for first time since publication earlier this month. I have all 4 books here. City Light is £15, the other 3 are £10. Free signature with every book!

Buxton Gallery in the Gardens New Display

I have changed my display of framed photographs in the Gallery in the Gardens in Buxton Pavilion Gardens. There is a strong bias to cities to tie in with my City Light book launch.
Locations now include Rome, London, Oxford and Paris as well as some local ones.

I forgot to photograph the display but here are a couple of the images, you'll just have to imagine what the narrow black frames and white mounts look like!

St Peter's Basilica and River Tiber at Night, Rome

Radcliffe Camera, Oxford

By the way, I will be doing a City Light book signing in the Buxton Tourist Information Centre on Easter Saturday.
