She longed for their worlds to collide, yet she failed to break free. So once and for all, they abandoned what they knew in search of a time where they'd be together.
Over 6 months ago, Alex and I began a photo-story collaboration called Long Distance. It centered around the story of two friends who lived far apart and wanted to see each other more than anything in the world. We had so much fun creating these photos, and wished that we could somehow meet…and then somewhere between photos two and three, Alex found out that her and her family were actually coming to America, and before we knew it, the story that we had been telling through our photos turned into real life. We met last week, and what can I say, it was more than incredible! We had never, ever, expected to meet so soon, or for the collaboration we created to turn into our own story. (Or that we'd be meeting just in time for our collaboration's finale!)
So today, the last day that we would get to spend together, Alex and I set out to shoot this final piece at Grand Central Station. There were a lot of complications, and just as Alex had finished shooting her photo and I was getting ready to shoot mine, we were kicked out because of our tripods! We tried for a couple other locations (but of course there were complications there, too haha), and it was getting late. After a lot of walking we wound up exhausted and sleepy at her hotel lobby, sitting in the same seats where we first met. And then we realized, this was exactly the place to shoot my part of the final concept. So we got ourselves some cookies, sat down, looked at each other, and started talking and laughing. What you're seeing here is 100% real life, hahaha! (And thank you Christian for helping out, you are awesome!)
Here are the first three photos in our collaboration:

In search of a time where they'd be together.
It feels so surreal to have completed this collaboration, met, and said our goodbyes all at once. This was a wonderful week, and I couldn't think of any better way to have finished our story, or an any better friendship. Love you ♥
203/365
Holy Mother of Mary i made it 365 of 365 and what a journy. you know what they say finish with a bang so i did.
I have to say thank you to all of you my flickr family who have stuck with me through thick and thin, good and bad day. you guys ROCK
and a huge thank you and congrats to my beautiful wife Catherine who also finished her 365 as well tonight
and a big thanks to our long suffering son Logan who's had to suffer many indignanties
Well, well, well the year has come and gone and we all did it! Congrats to all of my fellow 365'ers who stuck it out through the year! While I found my third 365 very challenging this year, I enjoyed the interactions I had with all of you. You guys kept me motivated, you made me laugh, you moved me with your shots and stories and I learned a lot from all of you. I wish all of you the very best in 2014!
As for this shot, I uploaded my 363 photos to date yesterday to have them printed and do something creative with them for my last day. Unfortunately once I started to go through them I realized that they only printed part of my order (and MULTIPLE times!) so this is what about 225 pictures look like scattered on my floor. Creativity will need to wait for the 100x group in 2014 :)
Happy, Happy New Year to all of you and I hope 2014 finds you healthy and surrounded with lots of love and laughter!

tomorrow is "Service Nation's a Day of Action". people all over the US are participating in volunteer projects and doing things to help out their communities.
my students are so thrilled to take part in this special day. they have been working for 2 weeks to create these huge paintings.
tomorrow, we are delivering them to a local nursing home. the kids came up with the ideas/themes for the paintings and did all the work themselves. they even made the frames. the paintings are each 2 ft. x 2 ft. they have been so excited about it since i told them about the project. i'm hoping the residents of the nursing home are as thrilled as we are to give them to them. :)
i'll for sure be updating!! :)

The flag of the US and Ghana. Black Star and Stars and Stripes. Photoshop layout for some of our T-Shirts, we designed for Obama's visit in Ghana.
Have a look on the real T-Shirt with that flag.
The idea to create a Obama in Ghana collection for his first visit as elected President of the United States to an African country came up with the first news mid May. German designer and photographer Stefan Meisel who’s living in Abidjan, Ivory Coast since 2007 made the first layouts in the first days of June, together with designer Yves Dossou who created already a street wear collection for the Ivory Coast in 2002. The both creative are working together since February 2009 to bring fresh air in West African street wear. The studios and ateliers are beside the front shop called “Monde Perso” – which is a French catchword for “Create your own (personal) world” - in the centre of Abidjan.

Remarks by Obama and Mills at Departure Ceremony
Obama discusses his impressions and experiences from his trip to Ghana
THE WHITE HOUSE
Office of the Press Secretary , July 11, 2009
REMARKS BY PRESIDENT OBAMA AND PRESIDENT MILLS OF GHANA AT DEPARTURE CEREMONY, Kotoka International Airport , Accra, Ghana 6:24 P.M. GMT
PRESIDENT MILLS: Fellow Ghanaians -- fellow Ghanaians, distinguished ladies and gentlemen, far too soon, our august visitor is scheduled to be leaving us. But I would want on your behalf to thank him, his wife, his children, and his entire delegation for the honor that they have done us by choosing us as the first country to visit in sub-Saharan Africa. (Applause.)
We thank him for the message that he delivered to us. He wants to have a close partnership with us. He wants us to uphold democracy. He wants us to go down the trail which has been blazed for us. And he wants us to take our destiny into our own hands. And there is hope, because hope is a very powerful weapon. The Good Lord has blessed us with abundant gifts, and we know that this visit is going to open so many doors to us. (Applause.)
President Obama, there’s not a single Ghanaian who is not excited by your visit. And a lot of Ghanaians began praying for you the moment they heard that you were coming to visit us. The Good Lord has heard our prayers and you have come. And I think that, by all standards, we can all say this has been a very successful visit. I would therefore, my brother and sisters, like on your behalf to say me dawase, me dawase. (Applause.) Thank you. Thank you. (Applause.) Nyame, Nyame -- Nyame fa me koe. May God safely guide you. Thank you, President. (Applause.)
PRESIDENT OBAMA: Hello, Ghana. (Applause.) Thank you. Thank you. I want to thank the people of Ghana for this extraordinary visit. Michelle and I have been greatly honored to be joined by President Mills and his lovely wife. They have been gracious hosts.
You know, your President and I have a lot in common. We’re both lawyers, we’re both former law professors, we’re both new presidents. (Applause.) We both like to think of ourselves as athletes. The difference is President Mills played hockey on the national team of Ghana, and I played basketball mostly in my backyard. (Applause.)
But we both love sports. We’re both proud of serving our country. And today I want to honor President Mills for his strong and thoughtful leadership, his devotion to democracy, and his commitment for the future of his nation. I also want to thank the magnificent welcoming committee, including the drummers and the dancers. Michelle and I and our daughters enjoyed it very much.
I want to recognize our Peace Corps volunteers who are here. (Applause.) You know, Ghana was the very first nation to host young people from the Peace Corps. And for decades, our two nations have formed vital partnerships and lasting friendships because of this program. So all of you in the Peace Corps, you are doing an outstanding job and we’re proud of you. (Applause.)
As somebody whose father comes from Africa, obviously this visit has been particularly meaningful for me. I’ve had a chance to discuss the future of Ghana but also the future of Africa with President Mills. I’ve spoken to the parliament here in Ghana about America’s commitment to supporting democracy and development.
Michelle and I visited La General Hospital, where we met with beautiful women and their children who are getting the care that they need for a healthy start.
And finally, we toured Cape Coast Castle -- a place for centuries where men, women, and children of this nation and surrounding areas were sold into slavery. I’ll never forget the image of my two young daughters, the descendants of Africans and African Americans, walking through those doors of no return, but then walking back those doors of return. It was a remarkable reminder that while the future is unknowable, the winds always blow in the direction of human progress.
At each point of our visit here, I was reminded of the enduring bond between our nations. Men and women taken from this nation helped to build my own. Today, many of our leading citizens trace their roots to these shores. Your first President attended a university in the United States, as did your current one. Great civil rights leaders of America, like Dr. Martin Luther King, looked to the independence movement here in Ghana and asked themselves, "If Africans can live freely in Africa, why can’t African Americans live freely in America?”
And immigrants from Ghana and from all across Africa have thrived all across America. Today, both our nations are diverse and vibrant democracies. Here in Ghana, many different ethnic groups speak many languages, but have found a way to live and work together in peace. People here can speak freely and worship freely. You have a robust civil society, fair elections, and a free press, a growing market economy and a sense of energy and optimism. And every day with its success, Ghana sends a simple message to the world that democracy can thrive in Africa. (Applause.)
So we in America are proud of our partnership with Ghana. Together we’ve worked to advance education and fight poverty. We’ve made real and measurable strides in fighting diseases from malaria to tuberculosis to polio and neglected tropical diseases. This is a partnership we intend to continue. It’s a partnership based not just on shared interests, but on shared ideals -- ideals forged in struggles for independence that have made our countries who they are.
We believe that democracy is not simply a gift from previous generations, but a responsibility for each generation to preserve and to pass on. We believe that no one, whether it’s through the influence of politics, the power of money, or the fear of force is above the law. And we believe that we’re all equal, all endowed with basic human dignity, all entitled to basic human rights.
It is up to each of us, every one of us, to uphold those ideals. This is true not just in Ghana but for all of Africa. America wants to partner with the people and nations of Africa, but we all know that the future of Africa is in the hands of Africa.
So I especially want to, again, speak to the young people of Africa. In places like Ghana you make up more than half the population, and here is what you must know: that the world is what you make of it. You have the power to hold your leaders accountable and to build institutions that serve the people. You can serve in communities like these Peace Corps workers -- (applause) -- and harness your energy and education to renew and build connections between the world. You can conquer disease and end conflict and make change from the bottom up. You can do all that.
And I promise you this: If you seize this opportunity, if you take responsibility for your future, America will be with you every step of the way as a partner and as a friend. (Applause.)
Freedom is your inheritance, hard won 52 years ago by men and women determined to cast off the title of subjects for the title of citizens, and claim for themselves and their children the liberties that are all of our birthrights.
Dr. King came here to Ghana to witness the culmination of that struggle. He watched as the Union Jack was lowered and the Ghanaian flag was raised at the parliament. He marveled at the site of the Duchess of Kent dancing with the new Ghanaian President at the state ball. And in a sermon he gave upon returning home to America, he said of this new nation, "There is a great day ahead. The future is on its side." Those words ring just as true today as they did more than half a century ago.
Great days lie ahead for this nation. The future is on Ghana’s side. I promise that America will be with you. (Applause.) And together we will create a better world.
Thank you, Ghana. God bless you and God bless the United States of America. (Applause.)

filmed by Sandra at Landmannalaugar in Iceland's Interior. We decided this would be a good test run for the rest of F208 as there were quite a few people around so we could watch someone with a similarly sized vehicle do it first. We technically didn't have to cross these rivers as there was parking on the non-river side and a footbridge. The second was probably one of the deepest we went through with water going over the bumper of our Hyundai Tucson.
We finally made it to 8,000 views - actually over that number! It's been a fun little journey with lots of crazy commentary along the way. And of course, cheers to my great grrl Liz in Saskatchewanarama - you're awesome!!

Obama’s Remarks at Cape Coast Castle
U.S. president says former holding area for slaves also offers hope
Taken from the site America gov.
THE WHITE HOUSE, Office of the Press Secretary
July 11, 2009
REMARKS BY THE PRESIDENT AT CAPE COAST CASTLE, Cape Coast Castle, Cape Coast, Ghana 3:57 P.M. GMT
THE PRESIDENT: Michelle, the children, as well as other members of my family, just got an extraordinary tour of this castle. It is reminiscent of the trip I took to Buchenwald because it reminds us of the capacity of human beings to commit great evil. One of the most striking things that I heard was that right above the dungeons in which male captives were kept was a church, and that reminds us that sometimes we can tolerate and stand by great evil even as we think that we're doing good.
You know, I think it was particularly important for Malia and Sasha, who are growing up in such a blessed way, to be reminded that history can take very cruel turns, and hopefully one of the things that was imparted to them during this trip is their sense of obligation to fight oppression and cruelty wherever it appears, and that any group of people who are degrading another group of people have to be fought against with whatever tools we have available to us.
So obviously it's a moving experience, a moving moment. We want to thank those who arranged for the tour and the people of Ghana for preserving this history. As painful as it is, I think that it helps to teach all of us that we have to do what we can to fight against the kinds of evils that, sadly, still exist in our world, not just on this continent but in every corner of the globe.
And I think, as Americans, and as African Americans, obviously there's a special sense that on the one hand this place was a place of profound sadness; on the other hand, it is here where the journey of much of the African American experience began. And symbolically, to be able to come back with my family, with Michelle and our children, and see the portal through which the diaspora began, but also to be able to come back here in celebration with the people of Ghana of the extraordinary progress that we've made because of the courage of so many, black and white, to abolish slavery and ultimately win civil rights for all people, I think is a source of hope. It reminds us that as bad as history can be, it's also possible to overcome.
Thanks, everybody.
