Appeals (Sept 2020 entry)
You have a legal right to appeal against a decision not to offer your child a place at any or all of the schools that you've applied to. You can appeal for a place at your preferred school even though your child may have a place somewhere else.
The admissions authority for the school you're applying to must explain why your child hasn't been offered a place at that school. They must also explain how you can appeal against this decision.
Your appeal will be heard by a panel which is independent of the school and the admissions authority whose decision you're appealing against. You've the right to attend the hearing to explain your case to the independent appeal panel.
There are strict rules around the appointment of the appeal panel members to ensure their impartiality and independence. The panel's decision has to be accepted by the admissions authority and the school.
The deadline to lodge an appeal is Wednesday 20th May 2020 (this must be at least 20 school days from the offer date). Appeals for schools will be heard during June and or July 2020. Please see attached timeline.
The law says that there can't be more than 30 pupils in an infant class. If your child has been refused a place an appeal will only be successful in very limited circumstances.
The appeal panel must consider whether:
- the child would have been offered a place if the admission arrangements had not been contrary to mandatory provisions in the School Admissions Code and the School Standards and Framework Act 1998 (or, the admission arrangements are found to be unlawful)
- the child would have been offered a place if the admissions arrangements had been followed properly
- the decision to refuse admission was not one which a 'reasonable' admission authority would have made in the circumstances of the case
So the panel can judge whether an admissions authority has acted unreasonably, they'll have to be satisfied that the decision not to admit the child was 'perverse in the light of the admission arrangements' – the decision taken was so outrageous in its defiance of logic or of accepted moral standards that no sensible person could ever have reached it.
When considering an appeal for any other year group, panels follow a two stage process in reaching decisions.
- A factual stage – this considers whether the school's published admission arrangements were correctly applied in the individuals case, and decides whether harm (or prejudice) would arise to the efficient provision of education and/or the efficient use of resources in the school if the child was admitted.
- A balancing stage – the panel can use its discretion here, balancing between the degree of prejudice to the school (or harm) and the weight of the parent's case, before coming to a decision.
In Year Admissions
If you are applying for a place in current classes then please complete a Royal Borough of Kingston In Year Application form. Please contact Royal Borough of Kingston School Admissions.

Medium Box Recipes 13/05/2020
The Alkaliser
Your body's very own superhero – in a mug. Balance out your body's pH levels and ward off the corrosive effects of too much acidity. Kapow!
- Boil the kettle, and place your freshly boiled water into your favourite mug.
- Squeeze in the juice of a quarter/half a lemon per person – depending on how voluptuous your lemon is. Drink your powerful concoction on an empty stomach, and let it digest for about half an hour before you consume anything. We recommend laying in the sun with a book while you do.
- You can add in a squeeze of honey if you want to sweeten things up.
Great for the immune system and high in Vitamin C. Doing this first thing in the morning alkalizes and hydrates the body, and gets the metabolism going before starting your day.
Mango Smoothie Bliss Bowl
This is basically like having a healthy dessert, for breakfast. Any day started off with this is bound to be blissful.
- Blend up some juicy mango and yogurt to make a delectable mango smoothie. Maybe a touch of fresh ginger? Maybe some oats? Go on, you know you want to.
- Chop up some fresh fruit. Toast some coconut shards, nuts, seeds – whatever gets you out of bed, really.
- Layer up your bliss bowl, and start the day ahead on a deliciously healthy note.
For some added protein and fibre, add some activated chia seeds and hemp seeds. Activate your chia seeds by soaking them in milk or water for 20 minutes before using
Crispy Mushies on Cheesy Toast with a Fried Egg
This one's for the morning people with a strong savoury tooth – is there anything better than garlicky mushrooms and melted cheese?
- Roughly chop up some mushrooms.
- In a very hot pan (really turn up the vol), fry your chopped mushrooms in some oil. In the final 2 minutes, once the mushrooms are golden, add a knob of butter, some crushed garlic and some chopped herbs – take a second to savour that smell.
- Toast some bread slices – if you have some time on your hands, toast them in the pan with some butter.
- Remove the mushrooms from the pan, add some more oil, and fry your egg on a medium heat to your liking (we recommend sunny-side up, to start your day on a bright note).
- Slice up some mozzarella, scatter it over your toast and grill until melted (optional, but always better). Scatter over your garlicky mushies.
- Top off your breakfast masterpiece with a fried egg, and dig in.
Don't add the butter at the beginning of your mushroom frying, as the high heat will burn the butter.
Frittata Florentine
This gorgeous Italian-style omelette can be enjoyed for breakfast, brunch or even dinner (nobody's judging). Loaded with tasty layers of baby spinach, bocconcino, tomato and fresh herbs – say hello to the Frittata Florentine of your dreams.
- Preheat your oven on grill setting. In a bowl, whisk together some eggs with freshly chopped oregano, basil, and some seasoning.
- Place an ovenproof frying pan over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry up some chopped onion and crushed garlic until soft (and smelling like the heavens). Add in some fresh chopped tomatoes and baby spinach, and mix until wilted. Pour in your freshly whisked egg mixture (enough to cover the ingredients). As the egg sets, push the cooked portions towards the centre, letting any uncooked egg flow underneath – cook until eggs are nearly thickened.
- Remove from the heat and sprinkle over the bocconcini balls. Place under the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes, until your eggs are completely set and the cheese has melted (drool).
- Rest for 5 minutes and then slice into wedges. Garnish with some fresh basil leaves – because basil is the best.
You can really use whatever ingredients you like here – some other winning combos are cauliflower and cheese, mushroom and spinach (and the list goes on).
The contents of this week's box have been inspired by the cuisine of Italy – one of the most expressive and inspiring the world has on offer. Italian food is all about local flavours, elegant simplicity, and fresh, seasonal ingredients (just how eating should be).
Think: fresh, handmade pasta from Ciao Ciao (small-batch pasta makers in Hout Bay); Napoletana sauce made especially for your box; Parmesan cheese; organic basil and tomatoes; silky olive oil from Olief farm; bocconcino mozzarella, and more – food fit for the gods, really.
You can keep it super simple and dive into a Napoletana pasta, or kick it up a notch and learn how to make ricotta gnudi or butternut gnocchi with a crispy sage butter. Conquer the classics of melanzane and minestrone, and/or learn how to make some kudu carpaccio.
Here are just some of our favourite Italian-inspired recipes, to bring out the Italian Nonna in all of us – buon appetito!
Classic Napoletana Pasta
If there's one thing we know for sure, it's that Italians know how to do simple. Fresh pasta thrown through a tomato and basil pasta sauce – because why complicate perfection?
- Bring a pot of salted water to boil for the pasta. When boiling, cook your pasta until al dente. Taste to test, and drain on completion. Toss through some olive oil to prevent it from sticking, and to add some authentic Italian flavour.
- Heat the Napoletana sauce in a pan until hot. Add the drained pasta and stir to coat. Season well.
- Serve with some shredded basil and grated Parmesan – because Italian cheese is always a good idea.
To add an extra nutritious layer to this dish, you could wilt some spinach into the sauce while heating it.
Midnight Chorizo Pasta
Tagliatelle with garlic, chilli, capers, crumbled beef chorizo, parsley, lemon zest, parmesan, olive oil – great for a late night meal to soak up those cheeky glasses of wine (if you have any left).
- Mince 2 cloves of garlic, deseed and finely chop up a chilli. Roughly chop a large handful of parsley, and zest one lemon. Remove the skin from the beef chorizo and crumble the meat inside.
- Boil a pot of salted water. Cook your fresh tagliatelle until al dente. Drain, toss through some oil, and set aside.
- Place a large frying pan over a medium heat with a generous glug of olive oil. When hot, sauté the chorizo crumble until golden and almost cooked through. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant. Finally, add some capers (optional), chilli, lemon zest and parsley and cook for another 30 seconds (this is where we make-a the flavour).
- Add the cooked pasta to the pan and mix to combine with your sauce – add a little extra olive oil if it needs it. Season to taste. Garnish with some grated parmesan.
- Serve in a bowl – or eat straight from the pan, why waste any time plating?
Ricotta Gnudi
Introducing: ricotta-based gnocchi a.k.a little flavour-packed pockets of your dreams.
- To a bowl, add 1 cup of ricotta, ½ cup flour, ½ cup grated parmesan, 2 egg yolks (beaten lightly), ¼ tsp nutmeg, 2 tsp salt, and 2 tsp white pepper (if you have). Mix until well combined.
- Dust your hands with some flour, and roll the gnudi mixture into bite-sized balls.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Boil your gnudi in batches until they float to the top of the water, 3-4 minutes. Drain, and gently toss through some olive oil to prevent any sticking.
- Serve up with your preferred pasta sauce – we recommend Napoletana, crispy sage butter sauce, pesto – don't over-complicate it, the gnudi doesn't need much to shine.
Once cooked, remove the gnudi with a slotted spoon, and be gentle – they are precious and delicate.
Homemade Butternut Gnocchi
Easy-peasy homemade butternut gnocchi with nuts, crispy sage and beurre noisette – maximum flavour, minimum carbs.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C. Peel and roughly chop the butternut and place onto a roasting tray with a small drizzle of oil. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes, until super soft.
- Place the cooked butternut into a bowl and mash well (really put your elbow into it). Combine with some flour until it forms a rough dough (we recommend '00' flour). Knead on a board roughly until it comes together (be careful not to over knead it, it must be beautifully soft and pliable). Form a long, thin cylinder and cut into 3-4cm little gnocchis. Cute.
- Bring a pot of heavily-salted water to the boil. Once boiling, drop the freshly made gnocchi into the water, when they float they are ready. Remove with a slotted spoon and place into a colander to drain.
- Peel and roughly chop a nut of your choice. Pick some sage leaves.
- Place a pan over a medium-high heat with a generous knob of butter. When the butter is bubbling, add the sage leaves and cook until golden and crispy (get a whiff of that smell). Drain on some paper towel, leaving the butter sauce in the pan. Throw in your gnocchi and nuts, and toss until golden.
- Serve up your gnocchi in a bowl (don't forget a drizzle of the butter from the pan), grate over some cheese. Sprinkle over some crispy sage. Deliziosa!
If you would prefer gluten-free gnocchi, use your favorite gluten-free flour for this recipe.
Springbok Tagliatelle Cacio E Pepe
"Cacio e pepe" means "cheese and pepper" in several central Italian dialects – it also means "delicious' in every language. The heat melts the parmesan cheese, and the starches in the pasta water help bind the pepper and cheese to the pasta – we've jazzed up this Italian classic with some succulent springbok slices.
- Pat the springbok dry with some paper towel and season. When the pan is hot, cook each side for 2-4 minutes, or until cooked to your preference (the time this takes will depend on the thickness of the steak). Remove from the pan, and allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Lightly season your succulent slices (and try not to eat them all before serving).
- Cook the tagliatelle in a pot of boiling salted water until al dente. Drain, toss through some oil, and reserve ⅔ cup of the pasta water (this is important).
- In the same pan, add 1 tbsp butter with a drizzle of olive oil. Add some generous cracks of black pepper and toast for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add ⅓ cup of your reserved pasta water and bring to a simmer. Whisk in another tbsp of butter. Then, using tongs, toss the drained pasta through the butter mixture.
- Add a heap (the more, the better) of finely grated Parmesan and toss constantly until the cheese has melted – add a little more pasta water if the sauce is too thick, and add more Parmesan (to taste) if your sauce needs to be thicker.
- Plate up the tagliatelle Cacio e Pepe and top with the springbok slices. Garnish with some chopped parsley.
Serve your pasta-perfect dish with a simple shredded baby spinach and green bean salad, tossed with balsamic vinegar.
Melanzane Parmigiana
A.K.A Guilt-free lasagna! Tuck into these moreish, scrumptious layers of slow-cooked tomato and aubergine.
- Degorge: slice your aubergines lengthwise, into 0.5cm thick slices. Lay them down on a large board or tray, and generously salt both sides. Then, set them aside to allow the brown, bitter juices to be drawn out (about 10 minutes). Under some fresh water, rinse the salt and bitter juices from the slices.
- Place a large pan over a medium heat with some oil. Fry the aubergine slices on each side, until soft and golden. Remove from the pan.
- Keep the pan on the heat with some more oil. Add some crushed garlic, and chopped herbs of choice (oregano and sage are great). Fry for 1-2 minutes. Then, add a tin of chopped tomatoes and season to taste. Adjust the flavour with balsamic vinegar or sugar/honey, to taste.
- Slice up some mozzarella, ready some grated parmesan and breadcrumbs from 1 slice of bread (simply dry it in the oven and crumble it into medium-fine crumbs).
- In a baking dish (large enough for all of the aubergines and sauce), spread a small amount of the tomato sauce over your base. Add a single layer of aubergine, a layer of sauce and mozzarella. Keep doing this until all ingredients have been used up. Mix the bread crumbs with the parmesan and sprinkle it evenly over the top of the melanzane. Chill in the fridge for 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C. Bake your melanzane in the oven for 30-40 minutes until the top is crisp and golden, and the tomato sauce is bubbling. With that smell coming out of the oven, you'll want to plate up as fast as you can.
'Degorge' is fancy cooking language for adding salt to a vegetable in order to extract any moisture before cooking.
Classic Italian veggie soup, brimming with goodness and so much flavour – hello soup season!
- Dice up some onion, celery, garlic and carrot. Sauté in a pot with some oil, until softening at the edges.
- Peel and dice some sweet potato and add it to the pot.
- Add some seasoning of choice, diced tomato, and some vegetable stock. Stir to combine and bring to a boil over a medium-high heat. Simmer until the carrots and sweet potato are tender.
- In the final minute, add some spinach and season with lemon juice, salt, pepper and chilli (to warm you up from the inside out). Serve with a dollop of yogurt for some indulgent creaminess.
Try keep your veggies a similar size when chopping, it will make for a more even cook.
Tuscan Herb Seared Tuna with Lemon Caper Butter Sauce
Fresh, sustainably-caught tuna rubbed with oregano, parsley, lemon zest and garlic crust – drizzled with a lemon and caper butter sauce, and served with some roasted leek and fennel.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C. Cut the fennel and leek into a similar size, coat in oil and season well. Roast in the hot oven for approximately 30-40 minutes, until soft and golden.
- On a chopping board, roughly chop a large handful of fresh herbs – parsley, oregano, sage will all work perfectly. Finely chop up 2 cloves of garlic and mix with your chopped herbs – season well with salt and pepper.
- Drizzle the tuna steaks in olive oil and roll them in the garlic-herb mixture until fully coated (seriously, drench them in that herby goodness).
- Place a grill pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry until golden on both sides and cooked to your preference.
- Remove the tuna from the pan and add a large knob of butter – cook until it foams and starts to turn golden. Add a sprinkle of capers (optional) and the juice of a lemon, and cook for a further minute.
- Pour the lemon caper sauce over your perfectly seared tuna and serve alongside the roasted leek and fennel. Garnish with some extra chopped parsley, because: flavour.
If you are after a pink centre for your tuna, assess the thickness of the cut and adjust the cooking time to suit you.
Kudu Carpaccio Salad with Rocket, Parmesan & Mushroom
Carpaccio is a traditional Italian appetiser consisting of raw meat that's been sliced paper-thin. The kudu is lightly seared on the outside, then drizzled with olive oil, lemon juice and parmesan shavings – served on a bed of rocket, surrounded by garlic mushrooms. If you would prefer, you could use the same method with your Springbok Sirloin instead.
- Remove any white sinew from the kudu fillet with a knife, so the meat looks nice and uniform. Pat dry and drizzle with some oil. Season well with salt and pepper.
- Place a pan over a high heat. When the pan is very hot, sear the kudu on each side briefly until nicely caramelised, but not cooked through. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
- Roll the meat very tightly in cling film. Then, place in the freezer for a few hours until it is firm but not frozen.
- Pan fry your mushrooms on a high heat, with a drizzle of oil, until golden. In the final 2 minutes, add a small knob of butter, a clove of crushed garlic and some chopped oregano.
- Unwrap the kudu and, with a sharp knife, cut it into very thin slices. Season to taste.
- Make a bed of rocket leaves and place the kudu slices on top, down the centre. Drizzle lemon juice and olive oil over the rocket and carpaccio slices, and scatter over some shaved parmesan.
- Surround the carpaccio with the garlic mushrooms and garnish with fresh basil leaves.
To take this dish up a flavour-notch – drizzle with a little truffle oil (if you have).
The Italians call it, 'il pomodoro' – the golden apple. The French call it, 'pomme d'amour' – the love apple. We call it, 'this week's Hero Veg'. It's no surprise that this deliciously umami fruit has been loved and cherished for thousands of years, the world over.
On the health front, the tomato is a substantial source of the antioxidants – and will also give your system a boost of vitamin C, potassium, folate, and vitamin K. Hello immunity!
Although this busty red bulb is actually a berry, the tomato is most often used as a vegetable. Eaten raw in salads or on sandwiches; cooked in a pasta sauce, risotto, or curry; used in pickles or relishes; or blitzed up for juice – this ingredient is as versatile as it is tasty. Aside from simply biting into it like an apple (tomato in one hand, salt shaker in the other), here are some of our most loved recipes that beautifully highlight this vital ingredient: the terrific tomato. Savour them, tomato season is coming to an end soon – so without any further ado, we present to you:
The Ultimate Bloody Mary
Use your own stash of vodka – this is the perfect excuse to bring it out of isolation – a Virgin Mary is also superb. Homemade tomato juice is what takes this recipe to gourmet level.
- Preheat the oven to 160°C. Dice up some tomatoes, and place them onto a baking tray. Coat in some oil, salt, and a sweetener of choice. Tear up some basil and toss through the tomatoes.
- Roast until soft and blistered. Blend, and season.
- Build your Virgin Mary (Bloody, if you're one of the lucky ones) as you wish – go wild with the seasoning. Garnish with a sprig of celery and a crack of black pepper. Saluti!
Leave your tomatoes on the window sill to get nice and red – the redder the better.
Caprese Crostini
Toasted Sourdough crostini topped with fresh chopped tomato, basil and bocconcino mozzarella – THAT'S amore.
- Dice up some tomato and onion. Roughly shred some basil leaves, slice up some mozzarella. Mix all together in a bowl with a splash of olive oil, and some salt and pepper.
- Slice the sourdough and cut each slice in half (crostini size). Rub each with half a clove of garlic, a drizzle with oil and toast under the grill, until golden and crispy.
- Top the toasted sourdough with tomato/mozzarella/basil mix, return to the oven to get a bit melty, and garnish with some fresh basil leaves.
You can soak your onion in some boiling water, and drain before use, to take the sharp edge off.
Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese Toastie
There is nothing like dunking a gooey, grilled cheese toastie into some hot and healthy soup when it's chilly out – warms the belly and the soul.
- Preheat the oven 150˚C. Roughly dice some tomato and onion. Place on a tray with some chopped oregano, garlic cloves (skin on), salt and pepper. Toss with olive oil and spread out on the tray.
- Roast for about 30 minutes, until the tomatoes have wrinkled. Leave the oven on so it's ready for making your grilled cheese toastie.
- Place your roasted goodness into a pot (peel the garlic and discard the skins). Add some veg stock and bring to a simmer for a few minutes, until well combined and heated through. Add some fresh basil at the end, blend until smooth and season.
- Butter one side of each slice of bread. Flip the slice so that the butter side is facing down. Layer the unbuttered side with some mozzarella slices and season with salt and pepper. Top each sandwich with a second piece of buttered bread.
- In a large pan over medium heat, toast each sandwich, buttered-side down, until golden brown (about 2 minutes). Flip, and repeat on the other side – then, transfer to a baking tray.
- Bake the grilled cheeses for 5-10 minutes, until the cheese is gooey and fully melted.
- Cut in half on the diagonal and serve warm with some roasted tomato soup.
A sprinkle of fresh chili would give you that kick you are looking for. Plus, the capsaicin in the chilli will give your body extra assistance in fighting inflammation.
Baked & Stuffed Tomatoes
A whole tomato in all her glory, stuffed with some herby ricotta rice. Quick, easy, and oh so delicious.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C and lightly oil a baking tray.
- Place some rice in a bowl. Submerge with some water and set aside to soak for 1 hour, then drain.
- Carefully cut off the tops of some tomatoes and set aside (be sure to keep their hats for later). Gently spoon out seeds and pulp from the tomatoes.
- Place the pulp in a bowl with some chopped herbs, salt, crushed garlic, ricotta, olive oil and rice. Season to taste. Fill up your hollowed out tomatoes with the ricotta-rice mixture. Put the tops back on tomatoes, place them on a lined tray, drizzle with some oil and season with salt (on the outside too).
- Bake for about 45-60 minutes, or until the rice is tender.
For an extra cheesy tomato, sprinkle some grated Parmesan on top of the tomato in the last 5 minutes of baking.
Tomato and Chilli Chutney
The perfect blend of sweet and spicy – enjoy on sandwiches, cheese boards, or even use it as a homemade gift.
- In a pot over a medium heat and with a drizzle of oil, add some chopped onion, grated garlic and chopped chilli. Sauté until softened.
- Add some diced tomatoes, red wine vinegar and sugar to the pot, stir to dissolve and season to taste.
- Simmer, uncovered for 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally until the mixture has thickened and reduced.
- Bottle your tasty tomato concoction in some sterilized jars – look at you go.
Keep refrigerated after opening the jar.
Asian Mango Salad
Just when you thought mango couldn't get any better – add it to this baby spinach salad with a lemon, chilli, garlic, soy dressing (and thank us later).
- Grate a clove of garlic. Finely chop one chilli. Place into a small bowl and add the juice of 1 lemon, a tsp of honey and 3 tbsp soy sauce. Taste to test and add more honey, lemon, or soy (if needed).
- Peel, slice and deseed the mango. Rinse and shred the baby spinach.
- Make a bed of baby sinach, top with your sliced mango and drizzle over the dressing. Sprinkle over some chopped peanuts and garnish with fresh mint leaves, if you have.
Cashews and basil are a good replacement for peanuts and mint if you don't have any.
Fennel & Green Bean Salad
Eating your greens has never looked lovelier with this fresh, green, and wholesome salad – can be served cold or hot, it's delicious both ways.
- Pop the oven on to 180°C. Roughly slice your fennel bulb and place the slices onto a roasting tray. Coat in olive oil and season. Roast your fennel until it starts to char – this should take about 20 minutes.
- Trim the ends of the green beans. Place your trimmed beans into a pot of boiling water and blanch for 3-4 minutes (or until cooked to your liking).
- In a blender or processor: add some olive oil, a handful of parsley, a clove of garlic, fresh chilli (to taste), lemon juice (lots) and zest, salt and pepper. If you have some capers, chuck them in too. Pulse until a pesto-like consistency forms.
- Remove the fennel from the oven and toss with the green beans. Coat in the parsley lemon dressing, and serve with some toasted nuts and seeds. Delish!
Fennel contains Vitamin K, phosphate and calcium, which are known to enhance bone health – these micronutrients also naturally decrease blood pressure.
Garlicky Aubergines on Sourdough Crostini
May the humble piece of toast never been downplayed again.
- Cut the aubergines into thick disks. Lay these out on a tray, or in a colander, and sprinkle with salt – leave to degorge (this naturally removes bitter juices) for at least 30 minutes. On completion, pat dry with some paper towel.
- Peel and grate some garlic (we encourage lots of garlic, always). Rinse and chop some parsley, zest and juice a lemon (all in one bowl is fine, less washing up to do).
- Place the aubergine slices into an ovenproof dish, and spread them out in a single layer. Evenly pour over the lemon, garlic and parsley drizzle, a good glug of olive oil and some salt and pepper, until all the slices are coated. Cover, and set aside to marinate for 1 hour (at least).
- After the marinating magic has occurred, pop the oven onto 200°C. When hot, bake the marinated aubergines for 45 minutes, until soft and starting to brown.
- Slice up some sourdough – rub the slices with some garlic and drizzle with oil. Bake in the oven until lightly golden and smelling like the heavens.
- Top the crostinis with your aubergine goodness, and garnish with some wild rocket. Take a bite!
The longer the marinating time, the better the flavour – besides, what's the rush these days?
Lemon Posset & Ricciarelli Biscuit
Creamy lemon posset ramekins – made even more impressive with an Italian almond biscuit to scoop it all up with.
- For your lemon posset: In a saucepan, heat up 300ml cream and 100g caster sugar, and gently stir until the sugar has dissolved. Bring to a simmer and let it bubble for 1 minute. Remove from the heat, and stir in the zest and juice from 1.5 lemons. Hot tip: measure the lemon juice before adding it, you want about 35ml. Pour into about 3 ramekins and leave to cool at room temperature. Once cool, cover with some cling wrap and leave in the fridge to chill and set, for a minimum of 3 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Prepare a small bowl of icing sugar for dusting. In a large bowl, mix 1.5 cups of almond meal or ground almonds, with 125g caster sugar. Add the zest of half a lemon and 1 egg white. Mix with a spoon. Now it's time to get your hands dirty – using the paws, bring the biscuit dough together to form a paste. Pinch off pieces of paste and shape into 3cm x 4cm rectangles, about 1-2cm thick. Dust in the prepared icing sugar bowl until fully coated. Place onto the lined tray, leaving enough room between each biscuit, as they will spread out a bit when baking. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies look slightly cracked and the bottom is firm. Gently place onto a cooling rack and leave for 15 minutes to cool and harden up.
- Dip the cookies into the lemon posset – and try not to eat it all in one helping (or do, anything goes here).
Ricciarelli is an Italian Almond Biscuit that's gluten-free and only contains five ingredients.
Easy Italian Pear Cake
Transport yourself to Italy with this delicious pear cake, served with vanilla ice cream – delizioso!
- Preheat the oven to 170°C. Lightly grease and flour a cake tin (springform pans are the best, if you have).
- Peel and deseed 2 pears. Cut one pear into medium-sized cubes, cut the other pear into thin slices.
- In a bowl, beat 3 eggs and ¾ cup of castor sugar until creamy – for optimum results, use an electric beater. Once it's reached the perfect creamy consistency, add 1 cup of mascarpone, and continue beating until smooth. Go on, dip a finger in and taste.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1½ cups of cake flour, ¼ tsp salt, ¼ cup + 1 ½ tbsp cornstarch, 1½ tsp baking powder, ¼ tsp baking soda.
- With a spoon, fold the dry flour mixture into the wet egg mixture. Stir gently until combined. Then, mix in 2½ tbsp of canola/vegetable oil and mix until combined.
- Fold in the pear cubes and pour into the cake tin. Top with the pear slices and sprinkle with 2 tbsp of brown sugar (cue The Rolling Stones).
- Bake for 45-60 minutes. Test to see if it's cooked by sticking a toothpick, or a wooden skewer, into the middle of the cake – if it comes out clean, then hey presto, the cake is ready.
- Serve with some vanilla ice cream or cream – both are a superb choice.
Pears are particularly rich in Vitamin C, Potassium and antioxidants. They are also a good source of fibre, which improves gut health.
Orange Cake
Light orange cake served with yoghurt and fresh orange slices – to enjoy with your afternoon cuppa.
- Preheat the oven to 190°C. Grease a large cake tin with oil (springform pans work well if you have any).
- Peel and blend 1-2 oranges in a food processor until you get 1 cup of orange juice.
- In a large bowl, whisk 1 cup of orange juice, 1½ cups of cake flour, 1 cup white sugar, ½ cup canola/vegetable oil, 1½ tsp baking soda and ¼ tsp salt together. Pour your batter into a cake tin.
- Bake for approximately 30 minutes. Test to see if it's cooked by sticking a toothpick, or a wooden skewer, into the middle of the cake – if it comes out clean, then hey presto, the cake is ready.
- Serve with a dollop of yoghurt, and garnish with some fresh orange slices and chopped nuts.
Fresh and easy afternoon tea delight, with a vitamin C boost for a healthier immune system.
Banana (or Mango) & Yoghurt Lollipops
Blended banana (or mango – whichever is your fruit of choice) and yoghurt lollipops.
- Cut up some mango/banana, and mix in a food processor with a squeeze of lemon and a dollop of yoghurt. Add as much (or as little) of each as you like, until you reach your desired taste. Blend until smooth.
- Pour your Frutti Tutti mixture into lollipop moulds, with lollipop sticks in each, and set in the freezer overnight.
- If you don't have lollipop moulds, don't worry – just get a little creative with some DIY ones. Pour your mixture into a paper or plastic cup, and stick a lollipop stick (or skewer) in the middle vertically. Freeze upright in the freezer overnight.
- Remove from the mould or cup and keep one in each hand at all times.
Great for an afternoon treat on a warmer day, or to keep the kids entertained.

Every time Aidan comes home from Candace's, Adam and I talk about how lucky we feel that we know he is with someone that loves him like we would when we have to be away from him at work. Candace always keeps me updated on their adventures which I love. She went out and bought a baby pool and sent me these pictures. I melted. So cute.
Cole is eating his thumb and Aidan is in his own little world.
Do you think he's had someone ask him to take his picture before?

What are ovarian fibromas
A fibroma is a solid benign lump on the ovary. Calcium can also build up on the ovary. Studies show that 20% – 25% of women with Gorlin syndrome have ovarian fibromas and/or calcification (a build up of calcium). They cause no problems unless they are large.
See your GP if you have persistent back ache, irregular periods, pelvic pain or discomfort. If your GP thinks you may have an ovarian cyst, you'll probably be referred for an ultrasound scan. Surgical treatment to remove the fibroma may be needed if large.

Apple reveals larger Apple Watch Series 4
Today at the Steve Jobs Center in Cupertino, Apple took the wraps off the latest addition to its Watch range. Apple Watch Series 4 comes in two sizes -- 40mm and 44mm -- and the screen is over 30 percent larger in both instances.
Despite the large screen, the casing has hardly changed in size -- in fact it is thinner. Faces and apps have been redesigned to take full advantage of the edge-to-edge screen, and Apple says that it has managed to maintain the same battery life as the previous model, thanks largely to the new S4 chip with a custom 64-bit dual-core processor. New features include fall detection, and a new sensor that makes it possible to use Apple Watch to take ECG readings
Apple says that this is first FDA-approved ECG device that's available to consumers, and this new feature has been facilitated by the redesigned crown. The redesign also allows for more accurate scrolling through lists and apps, and there's also haptic feedback.
Apple explains the new fall-detection feature:
With watchOS 5, Apple Watch intermittently analyzes heart rhythms in the background and sends a notification if an irregular heart rhythm such as AFib is detected. It can also alert the user if the heart rate exceeds or falls below a specified threshold.
Fall detection utilizes a next-generation accelerometer and gyroscope, which measures up to 32 g-forces, along with custom algorithms to identify when hard falls occur. By analyzing wrist trajectory and impact acceleration, Apple Watch sends the user an alert after a fall, which can be dismissed or used to initiate a call to emergency services. If Apple Watch senses immobility for 60 seconds after the notification, it will automatically call emergency services and send a message along with location to emergency contacts.
The Apple Watch's focus on fitness means it should come as no surprise that there's Nike+ optimization, as well as the option of adding up to eight complications to a face to keep an eye on even more stats.
The speaker has been made 50 percent louder, and the microphone has been moved to the other side to reduce echo and improve call quality.
There are new finishes available -- stainless and gold stainless -- adding to the existing aluminum finishes anodized in silver, gold and space gray, and both new and old bands can be used with the new Watch.
Apple Watch Series 4 is available to order from September 14, and ships September 21. Pricing starts at $399 for the Wi-Fi-only version, and $499 for the cellular edition.
Apple Watch Series 3 gets a price drop and is now available from $279. watchOS 5 will launch on September 17.

As the saying goes, "A Sunday well spent brings a week of content". I spent my day browsing around beauty heaven, Space NK and picked up a product that I have been lusting over for a while now. I also managed to squeeze in a mouthwatering caramel hot chocolate, perfect end to my weekend.
By Terry's lip balm is widely known within the beauty industry and fellow bloggers as a piece of heaven. Now, it's a high end piece of heaven given the fact that it costs £38, but I figured I deserved a treat. On Saturday I took a bad allergic reaction and I was rewarding myself for my bravery. When I was in the States I searched for this balm but couldn't find it, not even realising that it was on my very own doorstep at Space NK.
Within the collection, you can pick between six shades, I chose the Baume De Rose as it is best suited to my skin tone. The shades will slightly tint your lips, however if you prefer a completely natural colour, then opt for the clear balm.
I have to admit that I am incredibly excited about my latest beauty purchase. I tested the balm on my lips when I was in store and gave it a little time to settle. I was pleasantly surprised at how moist my lips were. The delicate rose tint gave me some colour and the smell was devine. Although priced at £38, I would like to think it would impress me. It is an intensely nourishing treatment that acts as a salve for both lips and cuticles. My lips have been dry due to the Winter weather and I'm hoping that this miracle balm will repair, nourish and revitalise my lips. It felt deeply hydrating when on so I know I'm onto a winner.
I took my time before purchasing this product due to the price point. I had watched various beauty bloggers on their YouTube channels as they always give an honest opinion. I also read some details about the infamous balm at Space NK online.
"lipo-regenerating complex made from rose flower essential wax and pastel oil to boost cell renewal. The soothing and healing powers of shea butter leave lips feeling deliciously smooth, while ceramides and vitamin E help to protect and fortify this delicate area against the signs of ageing. This ultra nourishing salve also doubles as a strengthening treatment for cuticles, simply massage in and let the creamy, soothing formula work its magic."
I officially welcome Winter and its elements to try and chap my lips. As long as I have this balm buttering me up, I will be good to go!

Losses at Spain's 'bad bank' raise prospect of slow turnaround
Falling property prices in 2014 are likely to drag Spain's "bad bank" to its second annual loss in as many years, raising concerns that a clean-up of the country's financial sector could take longer than expected.
Two people familiar with the situation said fresh charges linked to weaker asset values in 2014 would likely push the vehicle into the red, disappointing initial expectations of a profit in its 2nd year.
The bad bank, known as SAREB, holds EU50 Bln in land, buildings and loans inherited from bailed-out banks. It was set up to draw a line under Spain's banking and property woes.
But, as it enters its 3rd year, bankers and real estate experts familiar with operations at Sareb say they are concerned that falling property prices are eating into its capital - prolonging the turnaround and potentially even forcing the bank to turn to shareholders for a capital boost.
"There will be losses again as it's very hard to make money in the 2nd year of the vehicle's life, against a backdrop of a weak economy," said one source with knowledge of SAREB's situation.
In 2013, the year it launched, SAREB made an EU261 Mln loss, dragged down by costs, debt payments and charges from potential losses as some property values fall.
The vehicle began making provisions preventatively, after the Bank of Spain said SAREB should revalue its assets at market prices over a number of years.
Fresh charges in 2014 will likely tip it into a loss again.
Bankers and analysts, however, do not agree on whether even hefty losses would force it to bolster capital, and if so, how that might happen.
SAREB's status as a "bad" bank means it is not required to meet capital ratio requirements set by regulators for mainstream banks.
Just under half of SAREB's EU5 Bln start-up equity came from the state, and the rest mainly from other Spanish banks.
SAREB declined to comment. It said it was not clear what the impact of central bank revaluation demands would be on its 2014 accounts.
House sales have begun picking up in Spain this year as the country emerges from recession, though prices are still falling and have nearly halved over the past 7 years.
This adds to other challenges for the vehicle in 2015, when it will outsource the management of most of its assets to new property companies.
While that may help it sell more of its portfolio in years to come through their networks, sales could be disrupted during the transition, two sources familiar with the process said.
"It's a huge task, it can take months to migrate credit histories," one of the sources said.
Four property firms will manage the assets: Solvia, owned by Sabadell ; Altamira, backed by Apollo Global Management and Santander ; Haya Real Estate, which belongs to Cerberus Capital Management; and Servihabitat, owned by TPG and Caixabank.
They paid EU600 Mln upfront to win the contracts, and will be handed fees over time in exchange.

Saga is the story of two soldiers from opposite sides of a war that fall in love and bring a child into a very dangerous universe. Alana is from Landfall, the largest planet in the galaxy, and Marko is from Wreath, Landfall's only moon. Landfall and Wreath have been at war as long as anyone can remember, and the war has spread across the entire galaxy. Marko claimed to be a conscientious objector to the war, and surrendered to Landfall forces on the planet Cleave. Alana was stationed there, and assigned to guard Marko. Twelve hours later, they disappeared together.
The story opens with the couple still on Cleave, as Alana is giving birth to their child. The couple had thought they had found a safe place to hide, but only minutes after their daughter is born, a military group of Alana's people are there. The owner of their hideout sold them out. Just as Alana is about to be arrested, a small group of magical beings from Marko's world materialize. A battle of military weapons versus magical powers ensues. At the end, only Alana, Marko, and the baby are alive. The monkey like being who sold them out is dying, and he tells them to hide from the authorities in the sewers. He gives them a map before he dies, saying it won't quite make up for his betrayal, but it's all he can do for them now.
The scene shifts to Landfall, and we meet Prince Robot IV, who has a human body and something resembling a computer monitor for a head. He is enjoying some private time with a lady friend, when he is told he has a guest. This is Gale, a special agent from Secret Intelligence, who has wings like Alana. Gale tells IV all about the couple and their history, including the slaughter of the unit sent to arrest Alana. IV's father, the King of the Robot Kingdom, has sent Gale to "deal with the situation".
Alana and Marko are making their way through the sewers. Alana declares she will be ready for the next ambush, and produces a weapon. Marko is horrified, and even though Alana tells him it is non-lethal, he is not placated. As they bicker, Alana examines the map and is excited to see there is a place called the Rocketship Forest. Though Marko is doubtful - even if there are rocketships there, he feels there's nowhere safe in the galaxy to go to - he agrees to head there. Alana wants to show their girl the universe, and Marko cannot say no to her.
On Wreath, we meet a bounty hunter, The Will, and his companion, a lying cat, who can tell when someone is being dishonest. The Will is hired by a woman named Vez to find and kill Marko and Alana, and bring the baby, alive and unharmed, to her.
Back on Cleave, Alana and Marko find that the war between their people is raging where they think the Rocketship Forest should be. Alana despairs momentarily but Marko boosts her spirits by suggesting there may be an alternate way to get to a rocketship. As the story reaches a conclusion, the baby does some narration from an unknown time in the future. She reveals her name is Hazel, and thanks to her parents she gets to grow old, though not everyone does.

Sometimes I had trouble explaining why I like this title. But I finally figured how to explain it:
It's not that the story is really all that unique or compelling, although it's pretty well done. It's because I like Alana and Marko.
The first issue was double-sized, which was a great idea. We get to meet various members of the cast, and find out a bit about each one, enough to whet your appetite and bring you back next issue.
I find Alana intriguing. Marko is a pacifist, but she is a soldier. She may have been unhappy being assigned to a distant outpost, but what happened to convince her to become a deserter? Their love is like Romeo and Juliet on a universal scale. Her people want her dead as much for marrying and having a child with one of the enemy as the desertion. His people are likewise outraged by the "coupling" and "fraternizing" as much as the betrayal. The spotlight was on Alana from the outset, and perhaps we'll learn more about Marko later.
Prince Robot IV has a unique look which you won't soon forget. He considers Alana's people to be allies, but his lady friend likens them to mercenaries. That seems like a shaky alliance. I don't know how much more we will see of Gale, but his disdain for IV, tradition, respect, and the war itself was unexpected.
We don't learn much about The Will so far except that he is obviously very dangerous, and described as sharing Marko's "appalling sense of moral relativism". I laughed when he wondered "What kind of ---holes bring a kid into worlds like these?"
There's a Star Wars vibe going on here, only much bleaker. Staples art is perfect for the feel of the story. Vaughan is juggling a lot of things, but he's shown in Runaways, Y The Last Man, Ex Machina, and other series he is more than capable of delivering epics.
On Comixology, you can buy Saga Volume 1 for $9.99.
I think that's true of Vaughan's storytelling generally. The novelty of Y: The Last Man wore off after awhile, but the characters were always interesting. Even Yorick, the sap (I recall you not being sold on the title partly because of that, Cap).

You recall correctly. I had a couple of things I didn't like, enough that I never drummed up much enthusiasm. I still read it to the end, though, because I'm a Sad Fanboy Completist (tm).

What I love about this title is that you can read it, it flies right by, but never once do you feel like you didn't get your money's worth. Each issue seems full. The artwork is beautiful. The storytelling seems effortless. Like we're just watching it happen naturally, and we're not being force-fed exposition with each new scene or in each panel. It's enjoyable to experience, and you really don't experience the "gross-out" scenes (the giant ball-sack, the orgy, etc.) don't feel like they're there to make you uncomfortable; it's more like you're just at a party where those things happen to be present, and so you just look the other way.
It's really well done. I know there are hipster/precious elements, which I'm sure appeal to a large part of the audience (and one former member of this forum who admits it readily), but to me, it's great in spite of those elements.
It's a really enjoyable read.
To me this is how you do a first issue. You set the table for upcoming storylines. Give us some background, but not overburden us with too much in the beginning. Introduce the principles. Also, move the main plot along. Just really well done.
They did in this issue which Image does from time to time which is really nice. An oversized issue at the regular price.
I check out so many of Image's titles through the $9.99 first volumes. Such a nice way to do things!

The Will contacts his agent, and learns one of his competitors for the contract to kill Alana and Marko is The Stalk. Although he had said he didn't care about competing against others, he now says he is instead going to Sextillion, a brothel planet, because he states if The Stalk is after them, they are already dead.
On Cleave, Alana and Marko have doubled back to find another route to the Rocketship Forest, and are in the Endless Woods. They are attacked and bound by some vines, but Marko uses a magic spell to free them. They fall asleep sitting up next to each other. In three days, Marko has had seven hours of sleep, and Alana had none.
Prince Robot IV arrives on Cleave. He is greeted by a soldier named McHenry, and learns that she knew Alana, though not well. Alana kept to herself, mostly reading books; IV asks if they were religious or propaganda books, but is told they were romance novels.
Alana and Marko are awakened by a scream from Hazel. Marko thinks she's just hungry, but Alana says the baby is scared of something. Marko senses they are being watched, and states they mean no harm, and lays down his weapon to prove it. A female looking creature with eight red eyes and no arms appears, and tells the couple she has a job to do, and her name is The Stalk. Alana shouts "Freelancer!" and knows they are in trouble. The Stalk stabs Marko with a second tongue, and he collapses.
Alana threatens to kill her, but The Stalk knows it's a stun gun, She sheds her skirt, revealing a spider-like form, and holds several weapons in her appendages. She tells Alana she is going to kill her and Marko, and bring their baby unharmed back to her employers. She also says that Marko was quite a vicious sort back in the day, which is why she attacked him first. Alana threatens to kill Hazel with the stun gun to keep her from The Stalk. The bounty hunter thinks it's a bluff, but Alana cocks the gun. Just then, they both hear eerie noises, and The Stalk says it's the Horrors. Marko had mentioned them before but Alana had dismissed it as a fairy tale. The Stalk says she has seen the Horrors and they are real, so she's going to try to escape while they eat the couple and their baby.
Alana tries to wake a wounded Marko, when she hears "Hello" several times. She turns and sees six apparitions, all in red, that look like children.
This issue gives us more backstory on the characters. If The Stalk is telling the truth, Marko was a very different person in the past than the pacifist we see today. It seems like Alana was a reluctant soldier, not the dangerous subversive Prince Robot IV thought she would be. Speaking of IV, while he was talking to McHenry, an image of a gorilla or something similar appeared on his face (which resembles a computer screen), like a flashback. This also happened in the previous issue, when he couldn't perform sexually, an image of a claw or talon flashed on his face. He has said he had just completed a hellish two year tour of duty, so looks like he has PTSD. Even though he's pursuing Alana and Marko, we don't know if he's good or bad yet.
The Stalk is one of the creepiest characters I've seen in a comic in a while. There's some prior personal history with The Will which I'll assume we will learn in due time. The Horrors look creepy too - children in horror usually are - although we really don't know anything about them yet.
I agree with the rest of you on the pacing of the story being done well, and how wonderful the artwork is. Vaughan's story reveals a few more details this time, which just leaves you wanting more background on the characters. It never feels like a padded out "made for the trade" story, there's some meat to chew on in this regular sized issue. Staples excels at facial expressions and body language, as well as character design. It's storytelling at its finest.
John Dunbar (the mod of maple) said:

When Agent Gale briefs Prince Robot IV he says that Alana was reprimanded for "abject cowardice" in battle, which resulted in her reassignment to Cleave.

Face to face with the ghosts from the end of last issue, Alana begs for her life. One of the apparitions. who looks like a young teen girl, tells her Marko is still alive, and she and the baby are in no danger from them. She is offended by being called a Horror - the correct term is "spiritual defender of Cleave" - and they don't kill, just project illusions.
The other ghost kids leave. as Marko wakes up. He tells Alana he needs snow for a healing spell for his wounds, even though where they are at is very warm. The ghost offers to help if they take her with them when they leave he planet, the catch is she has to be bonded to a living native of Cleave, in other words, baby Hazel.
Elsewhere, Prince Robot IV is interrogating a prisoner, one of Marko's people, that Alana had been guarding. He learns Marko's name but not much else. The prisoner goads IV into physically attacking him by taunting him about a battle where a number of IV's people were killed. A soldier comes in and asks what is going on; IV replies he is "commencing the interview" and orders the soldier to leave.
Alana is stubbornly carrying Marko on her shoulders, searching for snow, as she doesn't want the ghost's help. We learn her name is Izabel. She offers to show Alana a shortcut, but Alana is unsure about trusting her. They bond when Izabel shows her how to burp Hazel - turns out Izabel was the oldest of seven and knows a bit about babies.
Meanwhile, The Stalk is fighting off some giant warthogs and calls The Will. She asks for his help with Alana and Marko. He blows her off and she chalks it up to them sleeping together on a past job. It didn't mean anything to her but he seems bitter. She tells him off, as we see he is headed for Sextillion.
Alana learns more about Izabel, including that she died from stepping on a landmine, and doesn't know, or care, to which side it belonged. Alana decides to allow her to soul-bond with Hazel. Marko stirs, and Alana tells him they should soon be able to obtain some snow to save him. He tells her there's no time, he just asks that she tell his bride he loved her. When she says "I'm right here", he replies "Please tell Gwendolyn I loved her so much", to her shock.

Rammohan Paranjape is a self-taught photographer, surfer, and an adventure traveller. His journey began in his early teens after dropping out of college, with travel, adventure and surfing being his muse. Inspired by offbeat landscapes, oceans, and extreme adventures, Rammohan has travelled extensively and documented some amazing expeditions and adventures across Indian sub-continent. This year he is celebrating a decade since he started documenting the surf scene , so we sat down with him to do talk bit more about his life, work and future plans!
My name is Rammohan Paranjape, and I'm India's first surf photographer. I have been documenting the surfing scene for a decade now in India and have been pioneering the sport as well. It's been an exciting journey so far from watching just a handful of surfers in the early years to a sizeable number of surfers and surf communities spread across the long coastal cities and towns of India. Apart from being photographer, I enjoy my time spent traveling to offbeat destinations, adventures and surfing.
There wasn't any real plan or motivation for me to pick a camera or start-shooting surfing in the initial years, the entire process was very organic and happened naturally. When I decided to quit college midway, I knew I wasn't going in the direction of graduating, having a desk job, stuck in some traffic in a city etc.… I wanted to try and do something new and exciting, which is when Surfing Swami (my teacher) introduced me to surfing and photography, both kind of took off at the same time.
Initially, it was just for fun - taking pictures of my friends surfing, traveling and their lifestyle for our surfing website which was quite popular. Then I started getting a little more serious about surf photography a few years later when surfing started to take off in India with a lot of media, magazines reaching out constantly for surfing images.
Another I thing I realized early in my career was that I wasn't going to do any weddings, fashion or any commercial work which didn't appeal to me but rather focused on surfing and adventure travel despite the fact there was no demand for such work. There is still none today, but it's a passion to chase light and action.
There were a lot of difficulties and hardships for sure! I remember when I got really serious about honing my skills in surf photography, I didn't have anyone to look up to or be able to learn under. Surf photography requires a lot of knowledge and understanding about the ocean, equipment and basics of water photography apart from general photography skill. Hence, it was a slow learning process with a lot of mistakes and overcoming them with a lot of patience and practice.
Procuring the right equipment was also one of the biggest challenges early in my career, as I didn't make enough money out of surf photography and had to save up a lot initially to get my first housing. So these were some of the instances or difficulties I faced through my journey as a surf photographer, I think it's still not easy not just for me but for most of the surf photographers around the world as the surfing industry has been going through a lot drastic changes.
I see there's a lot of people who are taking up photography these days which is good for the medium but at the same time most of these people are picking up the camera for the wrong reasons as well. It could be for just for quick social media attention, gaining followers or for another 100 wrong reasons...
Especially in this age where smartphone cameras have become so much better and people are taking more photos than ever, it's important that they don't lose focus or pursue an art for the wrong reasons. Hence, my advice to a lot of aspiring photographers is to hone their skills genuinely, develop story telling, make sure their photos have an impact irrespective of what genre they maybe pursuing. Personally, I have always believed that if your work needs to stand out you need to either create your own unique style or do something entirely new, which nobody has done. It's a long process and it may not look easy at the beginning but persistence and patience is the key. I am saying this from my personal experience... Ha Ha!
Honestly, I actually do a very few photography projects in a year but I do those with a lot of care and planning. Some interesting recent projects have included a surf expedition with Chris Burkard & Co which turned out to be a fantastic project where we did quite a bit of travel to some remote islands. Another was last summer, when I filmed water scenes for a documentary being made by a lady in Bangladesh, which showcased these amazing surfing girls who are defying the society and traditional norms. Their stories of adversities were quite amazing and had a deep impact on me. I am currently working on couple of stories, which showcase the deep relationship of fishermen, ocean and the impact of surfing on these communities.
Well, It's been more than a decade since I started documenting the surf scene and over the years my photos have had an impact on the surfing scene in India, been widely published around the world, and I have worked with quite a few surfing brands and pro-surfers. After all these years, I feel there's this momentum, which is driving the surfing movement in India. Building on this, my good friend and well wisher, Mr. Arun Vasu - CMD of TT Group, an Indian business conglomerate which has long been supportive of surfing in India - came forward to organize this photo exhibition to showcase my body of work and further bring more focus on surfing.
I have quite a few things in my mind, as always! :)
I want to publish a grand photo book on surfing in India, which also showcases India's rich culture and it's people. A unique book, which blends both culture and surfing, I would say. Apart from that, I am seriously pursuing making a film. It is a journey to unknown, never-before surfed spots on a remote island, that no one's been to or even heard of. It's a very ambitious project and will require quite a bit of resources but I am sure it will be once in a lifetime adventure.
As a photographer, it's very important to have the right tools, and especially if you are an outdoor or adventure photographer. I can compromise a bit on the camera equipment at times but never camera bags and accessories because you are putting your expensive gear, yourself and perhaps others at risk too. Ever since I started using my f-stop gear, I have been more confident that my camera gear and accessories are taken care of and protected I can get on with my journey.

It's been a while but finally getting the time and weather to start woodworking. My LOML purchased two more Y Yamamoto block prints and wanted frames made one of walnut and the other mesquite. Both are similar to the ones I made last year just larger.
The first is a mesquite piece that I inlayed some turquoise. The print is of the Greene and Greene "Duncan Irwin House" pergola with wisteria. If you ever have the chance to visit Pasadena it's really grand.
The second is made of walnut with mortise/tenon square pegged. Both pieces were finished with Watco natural oil and Waterlux varnish.
Thanks T
