your photos played a very important part in my discovery of the scene and they litterally poked my desire to come to the parties, to meet all these people. i know that the price of the films + scanning bizness, etc. will make it harder, but i hope that we will continue to see photos from you, whatever camera you use... it's particularly meaningfull for we who are not living in london.

yeah same here .. seing the early images of fwd with youngsta etc was big part in my inital exitement

the first time i ever properly used that camera was at the may 2005 dmz...it arrived that day! thanx for all the support and best wishes, it's much appreciated. i'm thinking of ways i can raise money for a new one. my film camera is lovely but i really do need a digital. Contemplating either a rip roaring d.o.t.s party - loads of wicked bands and dj's, or starting a collection fund (as batfink and a couple of other people have suggested) but in return for limited edition prints or postcards. would this be something you'd be interested in?

either that or i do as the fuzz suggested and try an insurance scam. not sure i'd be comfortable with that tho!

i am buying you a cheer-up present but don't hold your breath i'm slow on these things.

i think a dots rave would be amazing. the donations/prints idea may be more straightforward though.

i'd def buy some prints or help out with a party - you've supported me in the past so i oughta return the favour. Plus it's vital that the dubstep scene is documented as much as possible in these exciting times - noone does it better than you tbh.

There's been some wicked fundraiser parties in Bristal over the years (there's another big one in a coupla wks) and they always work well. Last one was for a graf artist who got fined about £3k and had all sortsa shit confiscated - the funds raised obviously didn't cover it all, but helped pay for new equipment & paint etc.
