  • © licensed to London News Pictures. London, UK. World Pinhole Day 24/04/2011. © licensed to London News Pictures. London, UK. World Pinhole Day 24th April 2011. Scanned Solargraph paper negative of long exposure pinhole photograph before being inverted in photoshop software to create a finished picture. Using just an Empty film canister loaded with a single pieces of photosensitive paper and a hole the size of a pin these remarkable photographs of some of London's landmarks have been captured after months of patience. The canisters are left placed pointed at their subjects in secret locations around the capital. The hole is so small that only a tiny amount of light hits the paper meaning the exposure can last months, allowing for fantastic light trails to be left by the sun and moon. Solargraph pinhole photograph of Tower Bridge, the exposure is over several months to capture the movement of the sun.  Please see special instructions for usage rates.

  • © under license to London News Pictures. 26/11/2010 Pictures: Patrick Obrien and his Leica camera. Spirit of the revolution. Photography student Patrick O'brien photographed the student protests in Whitehall, London, on Wednesday 24 Nov 2010. Unlike most students Patrick doesn't rely on digital cameras or even an iPhone. He managed to capture the spirit of the protests, using one of his collection of over 60 old film cameras. Once developed, his grainy images conjure up memories of many of the  protest pictures of the 60's and 70's.  ..Patrick, aged 21, used his trusty Leica M5 from 1972 with a 50mm lens with only 3 rolls of rollei retro 400s film. Once he captured the action, he then rushed home and developed the films in his bedroom , where he has a darkroom. Once the negatives were dry he scanned them digitally and published them on his website and used them in his studies...Patrick says "My experience of the protest was a good one but at times there was a very tense atmosphere. I was always on my guard because of flying projectiles and constant crowd surges. Although I was aware of this it didn't stop me from taking my pictures. The pictures of Josef Koudelka in 1968 really influence my work. I really hope my pictures tell a slightly different story to that of digital cameras"

Unlike most students Patrick doesn't rely on digital cameras or even an iPhone. He managed to capture the spirit of the protests, using one of his collection of over 60 old film cameras. Once developed, his grainy images conjure up memories of many of the  protest pictures of the 60's and 70's.  ..Patrick, aged 21, used his trusty Leica M5 from 1972 with a 50mm lens with only 3 rolls of rollei retro 400s film. Once he captured the action, he then rushed home and developed the films in his bedroom , where he has a darkroom. Once the negatives were dry he scanned them digitally and published them on his website and used them in his studies...Patrick says "My experience of the protest was a good one but at times there was a very tense atmosphere. I was always on my guard because of flying projectiles and constant crowd surges. Although I was aware of this it didn't stop me from taking my pictures. The pictures of Josef Koudelka in 1968 really influence my work. I really hope my pictures tell a slightly different story to that of digital cameras"

  • © Licensed to London News Pictures. 18/03/2019. Plymouth, Devon, UK. “Messenger”, the largest bronze sculpture ever to be cast in the UK, is transported through Plymouth city centre before being installed at the Theatre Royal in Plymouth City Centre. It was brought into Plymouth by barge across Plymouth Sound. Weighing in at nine and a half tonnes with a height of seven metres (23ft) and nine metres (30ft) wide, with a volume of 25.6 metres cubed, “Messenger” will be the size of two double decker buses and is the largest lost-wax cast bronze sculpture ever to be cast in the UK, a painstaking process that has taken over two years. “Messenger” is the work of the acclaimed sculptor Joseph Hillier and has been created using 3D scans from the body of a young actor in mid-performance in Theatre Royal Plymouth and Frantic Assembly’s production of Othello in 2014. A monument to the physical expression of theatre, “Messenger” is a movement suspended in time that embodies the energy and creativity at the heart of the Theatre Royal and cultural life in Plymouth and aims to celebrate creativity as a dynamic catalyst for change. Plymouth is undergoing massive regeneration and the installation of the sculpture is is a prelude to the Mayflower 2020 celebrations. Messenger was cast at the Castle Fine Arts Foundry in the Welsh village of Llanrhaeadr-Ym-Mochnant, using the ancient technique of lost wax casting. Made from over 200 bronze panels, each section of the sculpture was cast individually before being welded together by over 30 master craftsmen at the foundry. Photo credit: Simon Chapman/LNP

Plymouth, Devon, UK. “Messenger”, the largest bronze sculpture ever to be cast in the UK, is transported through Plymouth city centre before being installed at the Theatre Royal in Plymouth City Centre. It was brought into Plymouth by barge across Plymouth Sound. Weighing in at nine and a half tonnes with a height of seven metres (23ft) and nine metres (30ft) wide, with a volume of 25.6 metres cubed, “Messenger” will be the size of two double decker buses and is the largest lost-wax cast bronze sculpture ever to be cast in the UK, a painstaking process that has taken over two years. “Messenger” is the work of the acclaimed sculptor Joseph Hillier and has been created using 3D scans from the body of a young actor in mid-performance in Theatre Royal Plymouth and Frantic Assembly’s production of Othello in 2014. A monument to the physical expression of theatre, “Messenger” is a movement suspended in time that embodies the energy and creativity at the heart of the Theatre Royal and cultural life in Plymouth and aims to celebrate creativity as a dynamic catalyst for change.
