I returned from a week in Taiwan late last night. These ladies in traditional dress were sightseeing in Tainan, the island's capital under the Qing dynasty.
I found an old camera I had from when I was around 5years old, which had film in it. So, as you do, I wound it back, and put this expired film through my holga. The results were double exposures with images I had captured over 12 years ago, which was quite amazing...

There are times in life when you get the sudden urge to go through your past and flip through the pages that contain those memories.
Some you may regret, some you may still cherish, and some make you want to be that young again so that you'd have the chance to fix everything you did wrong.
We either want to re-live the past or fast forward into the future, but what we don't realize is that the present is YOU MOMENT. Something no one can take away from you but yourself.
So never regret our previous choices and don't think too much about tomorrow or the day after. Live in the moment and always remember, we all have a kid in ourselves...
This took me right back to the late 1960s when I used to ride a Vespa - only mine had more crashbars and mirrors than this one! Those were the days...

This month marks 1 year from my 1 year Sabbatical. Went through my photos and came across this one that made me remember some fond memories with my 10 year old son. Together we did the "great Trek" for 2,5 months alone in South Africa.
In memory of those who perished 32 years ago today, 30th September, R.I.P.
At about 3am on the 30th September 1976 the Admiral Van Tromp, a new powerful Scarborough trawler ran aground on the scaur at Black Nab, Saltwick Bay. There was thick fog and a heavy swell running.
The Whitby lifeboat, William & Mary Durham, was launched and both Whitby's and Robin Hood's Bay's coastguards were called out. Several rocket lines were fired by the coastguards, but the crew of five trapped in the wheel house, were unable to reach them. The Watson type lifeboat tried to reach the trawler by dropping anchor and drifting back to the wreck. On the first attempt the line parted. A stronger anchor from one of the trawlers standing off was used and Cox'n Robert Allen tried again. However the sea was too strong. With waves washing over her and three of the crew injured the lifeboat got to within 30 feet of the stricken vessel.
As daylight broke the Van Tromp lay on her side with waves breaking over her. One of the crew was spotted clinging to Black Nab, he was saved by the crew of the inshore lifeboat who drove the D class lifeboat at full speed onto a ledge and the man was grabbed just as a large wave broke over the boat and washed it back into the waters. The other four were washed ashore, but sadly two did not survive.
A silver medal was awarded to coxswain Robert Allen and a bronze medal to helmsman Richard Robinson for gallantry.

Week 6/52 Shoes 52 Weeks of Pix
This week's theme is "Shoes". I immediately thought of the first pairs of shoes belonging to both my boys that we've kept as mementoes.
The red ones belong to my 15yo and the navy boots to my 13yo. Both were late independent walkers, but my 15yo spent 4 or 5 months using a block trolley to walk with before he started walking by himself. Conventional wisdom then was that you shouldn't put your babies in shoes until they had been walking for a few weeks, but it was summer and he really liked walking with his trolley. It was quite common for him to walk to our local shopping centre with me which was probably 6 or 8 blocks away. So we bought him these little soft canvas shoes as a compromise.
My 13yo was just a late walker full stop, so he was quite a bit older when he got his first pair of shoes, hence they are much bigger and sturdier.

This shot took less manipulation than one might think. Just played with the curves a touch to up the brightness in the window. I also increased the colour saturation (such that there is) to add a little more punch to the light. I didn't have to do anything to ensure the negative space was pitch black -- I was shooting at three in the morning and used a fast shutter speed.
Watcher
Watcher is a multi-building video installation. Viewed on the windows of a series of houses, some of which Chen inhabited during childhood, images from her memories of growing up on D'Arcy merge with imagined stories that have occurred behind the buildings' facades over the course of the area's complex, history; fact is peppered with fiction. As viewers walk from house to house, they become implicated as voyeurs in the human compulsion to not mind our own business.

Anterograde amnesia is a loss of the ability to create new memories after the event that caused the amnesia, leading to a partial or complete inability to recall the recent past, while long-term memories from before the event remain intact. To a large degree, anterograde amnesia remains a mysterious ailment because the precise mechanism of storing memories is not yet well understood, although it is known that the regions involved are certain sites in the temporal cortex, especially in the hippocampus and nearby subcortical regions.
