Work from the `Fairytales` sequence has been my fave for ages. Great to see them here. Chuffed as some might say... Skj.

Wonderful images Laura, it's really nice to see this particular selection presented here in this way. The Fairytales series includes some of my favourite toycamera images, in particular Fairytales 1 and 5. Pinhole 2 has such a Man Ray feel to me, Brilliant stuff.

Been a fan of Laura's work ever since I saw that rabbit mask photo a year or so ago.  It's very Chip Simon.
Love the gallery, especially fluffy.

excellent - some faves and a few new suprises - I love that face on the last pinhole shot - really reminscent of the old surrealist stuff.

Laura's work is deeply impressive. You can always identify her photographs from the crowd regardless of cameras/tools used - and that is something I am in awe of.. :)

Laura, it's great to have you around. The gallery looks great. The real standout for me is the final photo. I love it. What's going on there?

Thanks Ed, its a pinhole photo taken with a homemade camera. I used photo paper as a negative and I scrunched it up a bit before putting it in, therefore it screwed up the film plane and added distortion. I then smashed it flat in a contact printing frame and printed it :)

I've always been crazy about Laura's work and was so fortunate to see some of her prints up close and personal last year at the Toy Joy show she hosted at FotoFest.
