Thanks, Kev. We're all restless, I think, constantly seeking something new. Having a 'collection' forces/invites you/me to take stock. I can see there is a style forming itself, though I don't seem to be in control of it - which is weird, but there it is.

We most certainly are Rob, I was only discussing my new plans for the coming year yesterday, whilst enjoying a rather tasty Italian meal and glass of Nero d'Avola, Well I say plan but the term plan is a very a very loose one with where I'm headed.
Having started with the Alleys ( note spelling 
) thing, the mind gets a bit more concentrated but I still am having trouble with where it really needs to be and where it will sit without becoming overly repetitive.......Mmmm.. 'cogs a whirring, and grinding' .....Keep being out of control, go with the folw, it's working...

That was simply an outstanding collection. I viewed them all. I really liked the double exposure? and motion blur? shots. Not quite sure how you did them, but they are excellent. You are just at home taking provocative nature and still life shots as you are hitting the streets for unusual and thought provoking images. That is a rarity.
Great stuff.

If I follow the link to your site I can get there, but going direct give me a page not found.
it looks like its because the interface for displaying the first image on the iPhone differs from the page that would be displayed on a full size computer. It supprises me a little that they haven't put some sort of redirect in ...
linking to the gallery instead ofthe first image solves the problem Rob MacKillop

Very inspiring Rob truly wonderful and the Doghead is an image that for myself shows great ingenuity . The images are more than photographs and the photography is the last thing thought when viewing, because the pictures in themselves are so strong. The strength of personality that comes across in the pictures from yourself Rob as a whole is immense. Loved looking through and thank you.

Thanks, Julian. Much appreciated! I'm having a hard time trying to convince some friends that I'm not wearing a dog mask in the Portrait Of The Artist As A Dog. They just don't believe me!

Those Crammond ones are fantastic! Actually all them are really stunning. I hope you don't mind I forwarded the link to a couple of friend of mine in Boston.

Rob me is a wee blootered seeing as the end of world is nigh 
Rob as someone who also has little self belief, and as something i do as part of my work (to try to repair shattered self belief),
the thing i value most as do others i have encountered (who are similar) is gentle straight talking.
From looking at these photos, the following i sense are intrinsically you.
Spooked, Enlightened reading, Susan Sleeping, Dark Spring, Gull at Crammond, Abstract Leaf Figure, Crammond 4, Crammond2, Crammond1, Lute1, Rhona, Art & Light, Susan Reflecting on Paxton, Rhona Glowing in Sepia.
The others i feel are interesting, fun. Yet it is the intrinsic in us i feel that has that "lightness of being" as it were.
