did you ever awake / in the early morning / and in stepping out the door / have your breath taken / stopping in mid step / in complete amazement of the beauty / of the morning? / today I did… / the sun was not simply shining / it was glowing and strobing / in the liquid air / and all was rich and green / and the sheer pleasure of it all / was more than my heart could hold… / feeling like I’ve been given a gift / I could not quite imagine on my own…
Taken in 1966, this is one of my favourite images of the 60’s of the iconic DJ, Sir Jimmy Savile OBE. I took the shot when I was 20 during my assistant days at 1:15 am, after a long advertising shoot for a petrol company with my boss, top fashion and advertising photographer John Cowan. I asked Sir Jim if I could run a couple of rolls of film for my portfolio. True gent that he is, Jim said “Sure!” even though every one was pretty tired after the 5 hour gasoline ad session. Anyhow, this is the result and it remains one of my favourite pictures to this day as it shows Sir Jim as he really was and is – a strong and generous human being who did not take himself too seriously. You are a true professional Jim, and I am eternally grateful to you for giving me this opportunity.

One of a few shots I got tonight as the sun was going. Just in my very tiny inner city backyard. Not too many options as far as angles went, so just eliminating extraneous objects from contaminating the frame was a challenge in itself. I had my son stand on top of a 2 step ladder which helped me get a clean frame. Light was fading fast, so just needed to keep an eye on my shutter speed, flash power was nailed down and aperture was f14 I think, to give me a decent DoF from bottom to top. Flash was triggered with Pocket Wizard Plus II’s. / Used a 580exII and shoot through brolly on a stand, camera right just on the edge of frame 1/4 and zoomed to 24mm.<br /> Canon 30D 17-40L 17mm iso100 1/100th

Yes, had a bit of a play around with more spoons – love the way they look like some kind of creatures slithering towards something.
