Have you ever tried to take a picture in a night club? They always turn out crapy. People move to fast, the light is bad etc. And if you show up with a huge camera and some proper flash light people are usually to frightened to get good pictures.
I stumbled on a club photographer called billa recently. He is mainly documenting the Nu Rave scene in England.
I really like his pictures and they give you insight in what seems to be some serious partying.
He has had his photos published in Disorder, i-D, Super Super, Clash, Time Out, XLR8R, Numero Tokyo, Sportswear International and Vogue.
Here is a selection of photos he took at Super Super Tuesday club night, I ? Niyi at Punk, Soho on May 6 2008. Head to Billa's online photostream and check out over 1000 pages of party photos and documentary shots.

Wir hatten schon darüber gesprochen.... Nun habe ich den Artikel gefunden, in dem beschrieben wird, wie Europa (oder die ganze Welt) mit Solarthermie-Strom versorgt werden könnte: www.spiegel.de "Strom aus der Wüste"
Auch treehugger.com bezieht sich auf diesen Artikel und hat mit regen Kommentaren eine spannende Online-Diskussion angerissen.

He toured the extraordinary scene of the new solar thermal power plant outside Seville in southern Spain.

A system to power the world in the desert would take up a piece roughly the size of Austria
Mike just posted
some excellent photos of soon to be gone brownfields and industrial sites in Greenwich:
«There's a little-used but really interesting walk that runs from the Millennium Dome (or 'The O2' or whatever it's now called) along a riverside path into Greenwich. The walk breezes past acres of empty, deserted land and disused quays that will, no doubt, soon be sprouting ghastly developments galore.»
