Fujichrome outdated dias film. Maiya m645, manually exposed.
I walk back on what I expressed a couple of days ago, claiming that I might as well shot digital instead of medium format positve film. There is ideed a difference. This pic has an obvious film-look: The structure and the grain. And even the colors are different from my digital photos. I don't believe I could have managed these qualities with some digital camera. Film or digital, which is the better? That I believe is a matter of subjective taste.
A bright summer's day view across from the 6191 ground floor gallery ( under renovation ) in Shoreditch EC2 to the monied young tek people and students' high-ceilinged high-end flats windows opposite.
An interesting photograph of a water fountain, tinted by light reflected from the surrounding Onyx panels.
I imagine that the lower of the two fountains is for Wheelchair users and/or children - how considerate.

Al-Hadith | Sifat Tawakkal Membawa Ke Syurga:
Daripada Abu Hurairah RA katanya, Nabi SAW bersabda, “Akan masuk ke syurga orang-orang yang hati mereka seperti hati burung (yakni benar-benar berserah dan percaya kepada jaminan Allah pada dirinya).”
Huraian Hatidh:
1. Orang beriman yang bertawakal kepada Allah dan tidak berasa bimbang tentang masalah rezekinya adalah seperti burung yang berusaha mencari rezeki setiap hari untuk hari itu sahaja.
2. Orang yang hatinya seperti burung yakni benar-benar berserah dan percaya jaminan Allah kepada dirinya akan dimasukkan ke Syurga.
3. Sifat yakin dan tawakal amat dituntut dalam Islam.

Walking through the old city of Ljubljana I spied this little courtyard bookstore through a narrow alleyway. I ducked tdhrough to the end of it and found this enchanting little book store. Too bad I can't read Slovenian. I would have loved to stay and shopped.
magneticpic.com/blog/2012/12/my-small-big-achievement-in-...
A couple of years ago, in a small Dominican town near the Haitian border, I met and became friend with Georgette Michelen and her family.
Georgette lives in a beautiful, enormous wooden house her father built at the beginning of last century: “The House of the Sun”.
The house has thirty-three external doors and it shines in a decayed, almost surreal beauty, replete of a long, fascinating oral history, virtually embedded in its walls.
With Georgette’s blessing, I embarked in a completely self-financed project: an extensive photographic exploration of the house, for nearly two months.
During my daily visits, I audio-recorded many hours of Georgette’s recollections and photographed the entire house both with traditional techniques and also using VR panoramic photography equipment.
My work was primarily motivated by a sense of impermanence I shared with Georgette; a feeling, perhaps a certainty, that this house and the marvelous mnemonic capsule it embodied wasn’t to last much longer due to Georgette’s age as well as to a brutal agenda of urban “modernization”, quite rampant in many Dominican cities nowadays.
While brainstorming with Georgette on how to save and protect the house in a likely bleak –looking future, I promised her that I would try to edit the best shots as well as some of her thoughts and recollections, derived from the many audio recordings, into a book.
Hopefully, though the book and some web presence, such as an interactive VR panoramic tour of the building, we would find someone interested and able to help preserve the incredible house her father built.
Two years and many working hours later, on my own and with the help of several friends of mine, both a self-published book and a website now exist: my own, humble contribution to preserve at least some of the images, sounds and memories associated with this wonderful building, if not the building itself.
Although a powerful architecture-loving magnate has not contacted Georgette, to help her save The House of the Sun, yet, I recently had the immense pleasure of traveling to see her in the Dominican Republic and present her with a copy of the book.
As she turned the pages, almost in disbelief, her face glowing, she would only stop smiling to thank me over and over again for all my hard work and commitment.
Unfortunately I haven’t been able to raise any real money or find anyone to finance the restoration of the building yet, but as I left Georgette inside her mastodon, crumbling home, delightedly immersed in admiring and enjoying what she already called “her” book, I felt this probably was to be remembered as one of my biggest achievements of 2012.
And indeed, this felt a damn good reason to keep doing what I had done for the past thirty years: tell stories worth telling, through my images.
