Just a little selfie, I was feeling down but now that I made this I can resume studying! Soon I will post all my photos from North Dakota with Emma Katka, they are amazing and she is amazing. Farewell for now <3
I have been reviewing some Vietnam scans and came on this one which I never bothered with before because it was kind of ordinary. Until I realized it might be an accidental selfie. (A word that did not exist in 1967) If you look closely at the very right of the frame you can see me, reflected in the window.
When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
And high up above, or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try, you'll never know
Just what you're worth
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face, and I
Tears stream down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face, and I
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
Self Reflection for Me Again Monday.
I've missed MAM the past couple of weeks ...hey I better get used to that pretty soon!
This is a phone pic/selfie in the mirror of a Vespa ^_^
I thought I would just use this shot as I know taking a 'real' selfie tomorrow just wouldn't happen.
HMAM!! \ ^_^ /
“Cacher is one of my on-going personal project which documents the literal and emotional space between my partner and I. Too often, I’ve experienced the strange mixture of intense desire to show my affection and equally an intense need not to show how I feel about her.“ Cacher by Thy Tran (¼)
This building in Manchester is on the approach to Manchester Piccadilly railway station, and snakes along the road. It has shops at ground level and this uniform structure above. Notable among the shops is the Ian Allan bookshop.
The building is curved enough that it can be made to reflect on itself. That appeals to me.
Next door, Emily and Elizabeth had retired upstairs. Luckily for them, Bobby had made sure the women had a decent bed and large enough covers.
What Bobby couldn’t plan for, however, was the changing weather and that Elizabeth didn’t seem sleepy.
“Baby sister,” Emily spoke, her face barely visible above the covers as she tried to stay warm. “Could you please turn out the light?”
“I just realized that I’m reading, like, I’m really reading. I haven’t reread the same page four times to make sense of what it says. I didn’t know I could still do that!” Elizabeth marveled.
“I don’t know how you get anything outside of childcare accomplished at your house,” Emily observed.
“I don’t know how I do either,” Elizabeth reflected, astonished she had just said that. Did she really feel that way?
To be continued later this week... ;)
Going for a slightly cyber punk feel for this one.

Sleep don't visit, so I choke on sun, and the days blur into one
And the backs of my eyes hum with things I've never done
there's a football game tonight and I have to go with the band and then tomorrow is the homecoming dance and then sunday I have a Lithuanian dance performance
ahh
good thing dan is coming to all three with me!
This long exposure light painting is meant to show the warm and cold that we all have inside. The battles between them. The light and the dark.
Light source is the Dorcy 520 LUMEN LED RECHARGEABLE FLASHLIGHT with colored gels.

This Mauka woman in Ganhoué in northern Côte d'Ivoire, like many other women, tries to supplement her meagre income by making hairstyles. Some elaborate hairstyles can take up to 9 hours ... more than enough time to reflect ....

“I?
I walk alone;
The midnight street
Spins itself from under my feet..."
―(Sylvia Plath)―
Often, at midnight, the world seems much more monochromatic as colors recede into the mists of memory...
I'm back from a week away from Paris, so i've got lots of catching up to do and lots of photos to upload (when I have the time!).
In the mean time, i've been inspired by the self portraits of Vivian Maier so thought i'd take some while out photographing other subjects. So here's the first, a double reflection taken at a hair dressers in London a couple of weeks ago.
