Spending time with Superwoman

It was Martin Luther King day on Monday just gone and many people in the US had a holiday. Ironically, one of the people taking a day off was a people's hero in her own right. That's right, Superwoman was having a day off, and well deserved I might add. Since moving to the US, I have come to be on best friend terms with her. She had agreed to let me photograph her in her private lair!

Even though it was her day off, she warned me that there may be some unavoidable interruption during the shoot. Well she is Superwoman and I suppose, she has to be on call 24/7 really. She said she was expecting the plumber. Ah, some kind of code I expect. Anyway I nodding as if to say "It's okay, I understand - wink, wink".

Many of you reading this may not know that Superwoman used to live in Tottenham. She was Supergirl back then, innit. But I was living in London too at that time and had no idea that someone I might have passed as an anonymous face in the metropolis of London was this amazing person who would become such a dear friend to me here in the US.

The shoot went really well and we had fun. I captured shots of her flying and she even let me have one of her using her heat vision. I enjoy comics occasionally but don't have a deep knowledge of the genre, although I do love super action heroes. Superwoman told me about someone who is truly knowledgeable on the subject of comics and I would recommend that you go here and get yourself an education.

I packed up my camera and my lights and then we had a cup of tea together before I left to get back to my office and the excitement of processing pictures of Superwoman.

The plumber did show. She went to the door and was gone for all of 5 seconds, but ... well she is Superwoman, isn't she!
