VNA Magazine, by Macdeee on Sept 26, 2007 13:37:00 GMT 1, I have been on this forum for quite a while now but have only just got the balls to mention this. I just wanted to see what you guys think of my venture. I photograph and print a "Photozine" of graffiti and street called Very Nearly Almost (VNA)
It kinda looks like this...
Been doing it for a year now and its in its third issue. Just documenting any kind of street art I come across before it gets buffed.
The website... www.verynearlyalmost.com
Any comments gratefully recieved. Thanks.

You don't get any street art where I live so having photo's is as close as I get. +1 to you for also getting to the 3rd issue before letting us know rather than the standard 'bragging' about what you think you might one day do somewhen in the future that seems more the norm on here

VNA Magazine, by Macdeee on Sept 26, 2007 13:49:30 GMT 1, Thanks alot everyone... The support has been amazing and I hope to continue with it as its kind of an addiction of mine documenting the London scene.
It started life as a photocopied zine that was given away (At Stolen Space, Santa's ghetto etc) but has since been printed to get more colour and a better quality of printing.
Its also available to buy at Stolen Space in London, Wonderful Workshop in Bristol and Magma in Manchester as well as other galleries and shops in London.
Thanks again.

from your site looks like you still shoot on film, I thought pretty much everyone shot digital these days - must get expensive
you might consider on-line (highlights?) of the sold out issues as a pdf download?

VNA Magazine, by Macdeee on Sept 26, 2007 19:43:48 GMT 1, Thanks for all the great feedback.... To answer some questions... I dont do a subscription as of yet, im still trying to get it off the ground. The next issue will launch in a month or so and then I might get a better website together with a mailing list and a better online shop. I dont make any money out of this, i have a regular design job and just work on this in the evenings... As Nu said, its a labour of love.
I am posting to the USA if you buy using the "including international postage" button. But it will also be available through Peel magazine and there website GorrillaMart in the US.
The last three issues I have been using only my own imagas but have since been sent some great contributions that will be in the next issue. So if you want to contribute any images please drop me an email or PM.
Oh yeah and the first two issues were all done on film. I now shoot alot with a digital camera but still some on film.... I just love the look of the borders you can get by printing your own stuff.
Thanks again.
