Spent the last few days in Las Vegas shooting for an upcoming documentary film, the schedule was mostly in the evenings and nights leaving plenty of time free to walk the city and photograph.

I also impulsively bought a new skateboard and would cruise the main Las Vegas strip at 5am, down perfectly polished marble floors and underneath endless high rise hotels, before the crowds but past the last of the night before stragglers.

This is a mini series from my days there. I don’t think these photos do it justice, but Las Vegas is a city where sin is brazenly sold in over sized buckets and 21st century values and morals shrivel and hide.

Story and Image by @jonny_pickup

“What would happen if the government caught us here?”

The rebel soldier in front of me is broad-chested, wearing a red beret, camouflage jacket, and joggers. He half looks back at me through the headlamp glow:
“They kill you. They kill us all. They don’t want you here. They don’t want the world to know.”

We’re in Cameroon’s Southwest region, deep in the heart of the Anglophone crisis. Together with British journalist Gareth Browne, I am being smuggled across the border from southeastern Nigeria into territory few outsiders have witnessed first-hand. Our convoy is small—ten of us in total, eight fighters from the Ambazonia Military Forces (AMF) and the two of us with cameras slung on our backs. The track we follow is barely a walking path, let alone a road for bikes. It winds through ancient jungle, mud, and river crossings under a suffocating canopy. “

This full story will be available in print when we have time to make that happen. Help is not on the way.

Ep2 from our series @awaydays.tv is out now! Link in my bio to watch ‘Thirteen Sector’, a film about football hooligan culture in Kazakhstan.

Kazakhstan is one of the most unlikely places for football hooliganism to take root. And yet, believe it or not, the scene there is growing rapidly. Born from Aktobe’s “13 Sector”, these crews mix British hooliganism, European ultras culture, and ancient Kazakh tradition to create a unique, fully-formed underground counterculture. Forest fights, street patrols, fanaticism—a new scene thriving 3000 miles away from where it all began.

Away Days got unprecedented access to these hooligans, travelling all the way to Kazakhstan to meet them. We followed the region’s most notorious firm in the lead-up to the biggest derby of the year…

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
