It’s springtime and time to re-think the purpose and function of #dailyfail. It’s all about looking at the process of creativity. It...

Well, it’s been something of a daily failure to achieve anything creative this last week. I’ve not been idle, but if I’m honest, it takes...

It’s been a day of ambiguities consequently reflected in this picture. What’s real, what’s not and does it matter anyway? Held the camera...
