Beautiful Bird Photography by Kelly Colgan Azar

Kelly Colgan Azar prefers photography of small, fast moving birds because of the challenge they present. She never gets tired of birds as the subjects in her photos because of their unexpected beauty when seen through a lens. Kelly sure hopes that more people will take interest in birds!

20 Great Pictures of Central Park NYC

New York is a beautiful and very interesting city, which is definitely worth visiting as a photographer. When in New York, you should also spend some time in Central Park.

Two interesting new interviews with Roger Waters

This week, two new interviews with Roger Waters have been published which are both quite fascinating.The first of these comes courtesy of Q107 radio in Toronto (http://www.q107.com/DJsandShows/DominikDiamond.aspx), and more specifically their presenter Dominik Diamond. He did a telephone interview with Roger on June 21st, who was clearly up for a chat and on great form. Earlier this week, Dominik posted the aired interview in three chunks, but today, the full telephone conversation is available to listen to via Dominik's Soundcloud (http://soundcloud.com/dominikdiamond...s-with-dominik) page. As Dominik told us, the main difference is that there is much more chat from Roger about the politics of the Wall, the state of America and the world in general, more stuff about how much he loves the Occupy movement etc. It's about 35 minutes in total and pretty cool. Roger also talks about his new material, sharing some lyrics, and even talks about how he is mulling over certain musicians for the new music. Definitely worth a listen...The other interview appears at Boston.com (http://articles.boston.com/2012-06-2...nd-ballparks/2) with additional questions, and responses from Roger, at their blog site (http://www.boston.com/ae/music/blog/). Roger makes it clear from the outset that he wouldn't be moving on to intimate shows in small concert halls, from the huge, theatrical nature of The Wall. What? Sit down with my acoustic guitar? No. That is an extraordinary talent that a lot of people have, but it's not one of my talents... It always looked to me like my challenge when I went into rock ’n’ roll in the mid-60s was how can we make this more moving? By making it more theatrical was my answer. They also ask about progress on the Broadway version of The Wall , which has been in development for quite some time now. Written in part with Billy Elliot playwright Lee Hall, Roger's theatrical take on it is still a clear possibility. I did meet [Lee] the last time we were in New York and we had a great dinner together, and he came to the London shows and he's still very enthusiastic and so am I, so I'm sure it's something that will happen, and I think the success of [the North American] arena and ballpark shows can only help the momentum of making something for Broadway.

Pink Floyd The Wall Retrospective film photos exhibition launch tickets

Exclusively revealed toward the end of April (http://www.brain-damage.co.uk/latest...xhibition.html), tocelebrate the upcoming 30th anniversary of the motion picture 'Pink Floyd: The Wall', on-set stills photographer David Appleby is honouring the fans of the acclaimed visual rock masterpiece, with an exhibition of stunning behind-the-scenes images taken during the production of 'The Wall'.On display, there will be over 40 traditionally and painstakingly hand-printed black and white silver gelatin prints from the original negatives, by Silverbase of The Photographic Centre which is within the legendary Pinewood Studios - where some of the film was shot. Other images are due to be displayed too.Brain Damage has had an exclusive preview of the pictures involved, and we know that those who are able to attend will be in for a treat. There are some wonderful, intimate moments, along with iconic moments from the production but from a unique perspective. Most have never been seen before, having been discovered lurking in a store room at Pinewood since they were originally shot and developed.The exhibition will be at Blackall Studios in Shoreditch, London (http://www.blackallstudios.com/), between July 13th-18th, shortly before the 2012 Olympics hit the capital. The private view of the exhibition, on the evening of July 12th, will strive to raise plenty of cash for the charity Medicinema , and we have five pairs of tickets for this exclusive event for Brain Damage visitors!To be in contention for a pair of tickets, simply tell us who was driving the taxi when Bob Geldof was offered the role of 'Pink' for the film. Email your answer to BD.contest@ntlworld.com (mailto:BD.contest@ntlworld.com?subject=Wall exhibition contest) with your full name and home address. You got until 11:59pm (GMT) on Wednesday, July 4th, so don't delay with your entry... and good luck!
