I think I have an easy website. No hanging around waiting for thumbnails to load - just a swipe of the mouse. But when a big job is in the offing new clients need to meet me and see my work in print.

My latest print portfolio ’The Best of Times' was designed by Paul Cojeen at Jo & Co, and printed using lithograph.

The title? Well, most of my images tend to be upbeat and positive rather than solemn and serious. Ahter all, happy moments are what life and much of advertising are all about. I was reading Alan Bennett's play, Forty Years On and thought - "We cannot stand still, even at the best of times" was a good title for a collection of transient moments in time.

Will The Best of Times be coming to a desk near you? I hope so. It would be good to meet you.

Mark McNally lives around the corner from mine and one of the nicest guys in professional cycling. He dropped in last week to have his portrait taken for a new sports series. Mark won this year's Tour of Britain King of the Mountains jersey on what has now become a tough race between the world's best riders. As Mark said. "Sometimes you get a rest for part of a stage but this year we were going like the clappers from the start!"

Almost 4 years since I sat down to be interviewed for the job my portraits of 105 Liverpool people cut through metal shutters now adorn the outside of the outside of the RIBA buliding of the year.

The Everyman beat off competition from the likes of the Shard and the London Aquatic Centre. I'm so delighted that all the hard work by Steve Tompkins at the architects Haworth Tompkins paid off and thank him and Gemma and Deborah at the Everyman for choosing me to be part of it.

It's the biggest billboard of a photographer's work in the country - possibly the world - and it will be up there long after I'm gone. That's a strange but wonderful thought.

Great little job with the Everyman Theatre recently for their upcoming production of Juno and the Paycock starring Niamh Cusack and Des McAleer. Not typical to make someone as lovely as Niamh Cusack look like a old harridan but she's a pro and it was for the role. It's the first stills collaboration with Bolland & Lowe. Thanks guys.

Design Week ran an article on Spin Cycle Annual 01 this week. That's two showings for different projects in Design Week so far this year. I must be doing something right. Don't forget. That annual is still available on the spin website at www.spincyclemag.com.
