John Lewis at 150

As a brief respite from Iceland, Dettifoss (or, as the Facebook spelling correction system would have it, "Dentifloss") will have to wait.  Instead, here are a few pictures from this morning.

Cambridge Camera Club have received sponsorship from John Lewis for a couple of years now, and in return we have done various photographic jobs for them.  JL are currently having their 150th birthday celebrations, and as part of this we are running a kind of historical photo-booth in the store over the Bank Holiday weekend.  Ann, Terry and I were setting it up this morning, and these are some of the test shots.

The final shot shows something I had always suspected: namely that marketing people are capable of absolutely anything (including defying gravity, it seems).

A few more from John Lewis

Extra images from Saturday's trip to John Lewis which didn't quite make the cut.

John Lewis Photo Project

Cambridge Camera Club have been working in a collaborative project with John Lewis to take pictures in the store which can be used to decorate the behind-the-scenes Partners' areas.  The brief came from the Marketing Department and included words like Inspiration and Magic Moments; being an Engineer, such abstract and woolly concepts are a little challenging!  Anyway, here are some of my favourites from yesterday's shoot.

Sadie and Meredith also joined us for a bite to eat.

Before you ask, I think it was something like "carrot, rice and horse-meat", although I could be mistaken.  Things have clearly moved on since my children were young, though, as it seemed to be served out of a toothpaste tube...
