I keep travelling around Auld Reekie and seeing graffiti tags for Cigs; I figured I would see how far I could get snapping different ones...

Misusing metadata since 2014 

After a couple of years on blip, I have more than 4 blip journals;



MisterFT - my main one for the narrative of life;

Cigs - my slightly obsessive recording of Edinburgh's #1 tagger* in mono - an attempt to show Edinburgh in an alternative way. The narrative my have some basis in truth but may also have ridiculous corporate concepts too.

TheThirdMan - a foil to the largely mono of Mister FT and Cigs - I love colour and this has become my site for overspill for stuff that doesn't make it onto MisterFT. As I record life elsewhere, I'm not so likely to follow you from this site and am less likely to respond to comments - there just aren't enough hours in the day

BillBoard - the most recent one - I started it do graphic design - type shots; originally I got inspiration from Copenhagen Dreaming
and Dennis' series of close ups of advertising hoardings; but lately it's become a more about abstract compositions; no people and usually a diagonal amongst more square structures.



*OK, maybe not #1 but certainly well on the way to become the best known...
