Hey Ritchie, who's your pal?

I saw this picture on the Guardian website today and it made me smile and chuckle. Firstly it's a great iconic photograph of 2 of the greatest tennis adversaries of all time. In the picture Borg is the ultimate figure of calm, Scandinavian cool. He looks like a great Norseman wearing Fila. By contrast, McEnroe looks like some spotty New York toe rag who's just left a frat party. Secondly, the game between these 2 great players was one of the best games of tennis I have ever seen. I liked Borg and I thought McEnroe was a twat. I now recognise that McEnroe was an incredible player but he was still a bit of a twat.

My chuckle came from Borg's great look and uncanny resemblance to Ritchie Tenenbaum, AKA Luke Wilson in Wes Anderson's The Royal Tenenbaums film.

Concentrating on Cyanotypes

We've been concentrating on cyanotypes of late. Set up a darkroom in the bathroom and we were off. Just a couple of results.
