It may be white in England – but we got The Ashes

Preston Hills

Looking out over a snowy English countryside with a smile on my face knowing we have retained The Ashes. A great achievement to the England team – and just now need to win the series to feel totally happy. Many years in the waiting and now to end the chants of “wingeing Pom” – in […]


Wildlife and Travel photography

If you have not been to see the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition at the National History Museum, it is well worth a visit. Slightly amusing to see that a previous winner had his award removed for an image of a rare wolf – only to have it uncovered as being a tame animal […]


Decorative plans

Some very interesting follow-up to my exhibition leading to a chain of hotels looking at using my / my grandfathers images to redecorate a couple of hotels. So – if you see somewhere with a “Mad Men” style decor .. it could be me šŸ˜‰


Petrol heads unite for classic car display

The Chelsea AutoLegends event on 5 Sept was a great showing of classic Le Mans winners with modern greats (and a few City show-offs with their latest wheels) Stirling […]

Exhibition images coming together with the first few canvas prints of Sten’s artwork looking very good. Now for the fun part of getting the people and social stuff together !

Modern grit

Jazz guitar

Wrestling with the challenge of whether to fully complement the period artwork or to contradict it … some of the more moody images are working rather nicely


Photo frenzy

Ready for anything

Well – its a little over 3 months to go to my exhibition and it’s a great task to be going through the vintage images and artwork from the 50’s and 60’s. Probably timely that I am being invited to a vintage themed party in a penthouse nightclub in Central London in a couple of […]


Blog ‘tastic

Well … getting preparing for my next exhibition in November 2010 (8 – 14th). Should be a fun mix of my photography and some artwork from my late grandfather, done in the 1950’s and 1960’s. More details to follow here and on my website: http://www.christopherreeves.co.uk To be held in a gallery in Mayfair London : […]
