  • Sir Terry Pratchett is among the top fantasy writers of the last century and Britain’s most shoplifted novelist! He was Britain’s best selling author in the 1990s until J K Rowling arrived. I photographed Terry in 1996 for a leading newspaper as he was at his peak. I knew little of him. He was a well know fantasy novelist – a genre I never fancied, I’m afraid!  I am not sure I knew he had a proclivity for wearing large, black fedora hats beforehand either!<br />
<br />
He was a delight to photograph, but as with most newspapers, it was in/out and back to the picture desk with the images! I squeezed out a single roll of b/w! His style was recognized as more “urban cowboy than city gent" and when asked if he ever took his hat off, he replied: “I do take it off sometimes because how else is a man to shower?”

  • 9 July 2017 taken between the hours of 14.43 - 15.28<br />
<br />
The Grenfell Tower fire occurred on 14 June 2017 at the 24-storey, 220-foot-high (67 m), Grenfell Tower block of public housing flats in North Kensington, Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, West London. It caused at least 80 deaths and over 70 injuries. A definitive death toll is not expected until at least 2018. As of 5 July 2017, 21 victims had been formally identified by the Metropolitan Police. Authorities were unable to trace any surviving occupants of 23 of the flats.<br />
<br />
Emergency services received the first report of the fire at 00:54 local time. It burned for about 60 hours until finally extinguished. More than 200 firefighters and 45 fire engines from stations all over London were involved in efforts to control the fire. Many firefighters continued to fight pockets of fire on the higher floors after most of the rest of the building had been gutted. Residents of surrounding buildings were evacuated due to concerns that the tower could collapse, but the building was later determined to be structurally sound.<br />
<br />
The tower contained 129 flats. Police were unable to trace any survivors from 23 of these, and their occupants are believed to have died in the fire. Firefighters rescued 65 people. Seventy-four people were confirmed to be in six hospitals across London, and 17 of them were in a critical condition. The fire started in a fridge-freezer on the fourth floor. The growth of the fire is believed to have been accelerated by the building's exterior cladding.  ( Source Wikipedia}

The Grenfell Tower fire occurred on 14 June 2017 at the 24-storey, 220-foot-high (67 m), Grenfell Tower block of public housing flats in North Kensington, Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, West London. It caused at least 80 deaths and over 70 injuries. A definitive death toll is not expected until at least 2018. As of 5 July 2017, 21 victims had been formally identified by the Metropolitan Police. Authorities were unable to trace any surviving occupants of 23 of the flats.<br />
<br />
Emergency services received the first report of the fire at 00:54 local time. It burned for about 60 hours until finally extinguished. More than 200 firefighters and 45 fire engines from stations all over London were involved in efforts to control the fire. Many firefighters continued to fight pockets of fire on the higher floors after most of the rest of the building had been gutted. Residents of surrounding buildings were evacuated due to concerns that the tower could collapse, but the building was later determined to be structurally sound.<br />
<br />
The tower contained 129 flats. Police were unable to trace any survivors from 23 of these, and their occupants are believed to have died in the fire. Firefighters rescued 65 people. Seventy-four people were confirmed to be in six hospitals across London, and 17 of them were in a critical condition. The fire started in a fridge-freezer on the fourth floor. The growth of the fire is believed to have been accelerated by the building's exterior cladding.  ( Source Wikipedia}

Residents of surrounding buildings were evacuated due to concerns that the tower could collapse, but the building was later determined to be structurally sound.<br />
<br />
The tower contained 129 flats. Police were unable to trace any survivors from 23 of these, and their occupants are believed to have died in the fire. Firefighters rescued 65 people. Seventy-four people were confirmed to be in six hospitals across London, and 17 of them were in a critical condition. The fire started in a fridge-freezer on the fourth floor. The growth of the fire is believed to have been accelerated by the building's exterior cladding.  ( Source Wikipedia}
