Open for Business

Wishful Thinking

We’ve finally transited: the awkward in-between stuff is over, and it’s time to build the content here. To paraphrase The (mighty) Who: here’s the new site, same as the old site! But with stability, few(er) outages, no 404s and on its own domain name.

We’re going to concentrate on photography news from the North-east of England, and occasionally from wider afield, plus reviews of local shows, interviews with early career photographers, short features celebrating photographers who influence our own work, especially those who still live in and photograph the region.

By region, we mean Teesside, Durham, Tyne and Wear, and Northumberland, with occasional forays into Yorkshire and Cumbria.

Planned posts include reviews of the local degree shows, a glimpse at the HCB in Bradford, The Ormerod Award 2008 prizewinner and a look to the future of a few of the region’s rising stars.

Please feel free to let us know what you’re up to. If we like your work, we’ll write about it.

    Me too!

    A big grateful thank you for spotting all the 404s. Took a while to untangle it all, but seems okay now. Please let me know if you see anything else.

    Hi B. Just thought I’d mention how much quicker the place is now you’ve moved. It used to take ages for initial page loads and now they appear in a flash.

    BTW big congrats on finishing the course. Three years goes quick when looking on. Hope it brings to you all that you aspire to and more in the world of photography. You deserve it.

    I just noticed as well I’ve moved from allies to photographers. I’m looking at it as a sideways promotion!

    Alex – yeay. The other server is pretty much broken, we think, so when everything was being shifted seemed like a good idea to do the domains while we were at it. bdadada.net is still there, for now, and you’re right it’s a dogged old sloth.

    Thank you for your congrats! It’s only been 2 years tho: another year for hons but that’ll be somewhere else. Two years is enough for now, it was great but this past term has been seriously awful.

    The links wouldn’t port over from bdada.net so they were done manually one at a time, and quite a lot were dropped, tbh. Which would you like to be, an Ally? :)

    Only two years – that explains why three seemed to go so quick.

    Manually done one at a time and I made the cut – thanks.

    Perhaps one of your allies may be better given my blog is a mish mash of anything I fancy it being rather than being devoted to my photography or anyone else’s for that matter. It’s your list though so do as you will. I’m just happy to be here :)

    Many of the allies are photographers too. Thanks for sticking around. :)
