Last spring, Emily Zuzik and I spent a few easy hours walking through Brooklyn to shoot street portraits. It was a super session; she got the shots she wanted for her new CD and her web site and her upcoming gig promos, and there was plenty of material left over for future reference.
Emily has moved to L.A. in the time between, and is now pregnant and busy and happy out there. I've been reading her updates on Facebook, and it made me want to dig back into the archives and make up a new shot.
She's already using a variant of this one on her web site, but I like the hint of smile here, and the way she is slightly between expressions.

I adopted Tundra about three years ago. She had lost a lot of fur around her face, and was very skinny. It took probably 6 months to fully gain her trust. She has taught me so much about the patience of nature, our intuitive senses, and about the slow but steady growth of healing. I'm so grateful that she chose to teach me.

Chartwell National Trust
Bought by Sir Winston for its magnificent views over the Weald of Kent to Sussex, Chartwell was his home and the place from which he drew inspiration from 1924 until the end of his life. The rooms and gardens remain much as they were when he lived here, with pictures, books, maps and personal mementoes strongly evoking the career and wide-ranging interests of this great statesman.
The beautiful terraced gardens contain the lakes Sir Winston created, the water garden where he fed his fish, Lady Churchill’s rose garden and the Golden Rose Walk, a Golden Wedding anniversary gift from their children. Many of Sir Winston’s paintings can be seen in the garden studio.
Trelissick Garden is a house & garden in the ownership of the National Trust at Feock, near Truro, Cornwall, England, United Kingdom.

The Workhouse, also known as Greet House
A museum operated by the National Trust.
Built in 1824, it was the prototype of the 19th-century workhouse, and was cited by the Royal Commission on the poor law as the best example among the existing workhouses, before the resulting New Poor Law of 1834 led to the construction of workhouses across the country.
It is described by the National Trust as the best-preserved workhouse in England.
The building remained in use until the early 1990s, when it was used to provide temporary accommodation for mothers and children.
Its acquisition by the National Trust reflects that organisation's wish to ensure the continued existence of this Grade II* listed building that was potentially to be turned into residential flats.
Restoration work began with roof repairs in 2000 and is ongoing.
Many rooms have been redecorated as they would have looked in the 19th century and buildings, walls and privies, which had been demolished in the 20th century, have been reinstated.
In 2015 the property was featured in the four-part series 24 Hours in the Past, in which six celebrities experienced what life was like in Victorian Britain.

Walking up the paupers' path towards The Workhouse it is easy to imagine how the Victorian poor might have felt as they sought refuge here. This austere building was a place of last resort for the destitute. Its architecture was influenced by prison design and its harsh regime became a blueprint for workhouses throughout the country.
This rural workhouse was designed to house around 160 inmates. They lived and worked in a strictly segregated environment with virtually no contact between the old and infirm, able-bodied men and women and children
Designed by a local minister, the Reverend J. T. Becher, whose aim was to provide an economic model for helping the poor whilst reducing the burden on local tax payers.

Fort Henry Observation Bunker at Studland Bay.
Fort Henry is a Grade II listed World War Two observation bunker overlooking Studland Bay, in Dorset. It was built in 1943 to defend the bay from possible German invasion along with other beach defences such as gun emplacements, Type 25 pill boxes and concrete Dragon’s Teeth anti-tank obstacles (which have also been listed for protection).
Located at the top of Redend Point, on a small sandstone promontory, the bunker is 90 feet long with walls, floor and ceiling all 3 feet thick. There is an 80 feet wide recessed observation slit.
Today, it is owned by the National Trust and forms part of the Studland Beach Second World War walk.
On 18 April 1944, six weeks before D-Day (6 June 1944), Winston Churchill, the British prime minister, was joined by King George VI, Supreme Allied commander Dwight D. Eisenhower, Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery and Acting Admiral Louis Mountbatten at the observation point to witness the largest live ammunition practice of the entire war.
On 4 April 1944, Operation Smash was held at Studland Bay with the Duplex Drive Valentine tanks. A trial run of the tanks ran into difficulty when a change in the weather adversely affected the sea conditions. Six stricken tanks sank with the loss of six crew members. The lesson learned from this trial was the tanks would not survive being launched too far from the beach and consequently on D-Day itself the tanks were released in shallow water.
