Well, if you’re sensible, you’d probably stay snuggled under your duvet. If you were me (and a few other photographers too), you’d head on over to Shakespeare’s Birthplace in Stratford-upon-Avon to do a photography project in the dark – the 2nd Warwick 4am project to be precise. And it was worth the effort. I missed the first one back in May this year, so I was glad to be around for this one. Stratford was virtually deserted when we gathered at 3.30am.  But we got a warm welcome from Keith and Don from the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, and after a brief and very informative tour , we were given free run of the house and gardens till 5.30am.  Here are my favourites from the session.

Thank you to the Sasha Taylor, Nivi Morales and Paul Coxon for organising it all and a big thank you to the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust and particularly our guide and security guard for making it all happen.
