MsS: The boy in the photograph

The boy in the photograph

I thought I'd fall in line with The Modern Age and mention rock photographer Andrew Kendall who recently had 5000 GBP worth of camera equipment stolen (that's about $8,732 USD). This week he heard back from his insurance company, and they are refusing to pay for the stolen items, even though he's spent thousands on insurance over the past few years. I've linked Andrews photos before (here and here) and he's truly an amazing photographer. While it was suggested to him that he set up a paypal account, he doesn't feel right about asking for donations. Instead, he's selling 12"x8" prints of his photos for 15 GBP each (that's $28.65 USD). If you're able to help out, definitely look at Andrew's massive gallery of pictures, and I'm sure you'll find one or two photos that you like. He has photos of Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Bloc Party, Interpol, Arctic Monkeys, Kanye West, Madonna, The Go! Team, Franz Ferdinand, Oasis, Goldfrapp, R.E.M., and LOADS more. So if you can help Andrew out, please do.
