Spoke with my favourite cousins from back home. Made plans on what we could do during my vacation. Had a long conversation on politics, climate change, tax, genetics and who’s going to bell the cat. Got J in touch with AS. Hopefully something good will come out of it. Was so delighted to see these […]
Woke up early for a photoshoot that was planned, postponed, planned again. Never had models that were so eager to get their own costumes and be part of the story. Loved it. I was trying to come up with a story for the shoot, but inspiration was in short supply. Up until I saw them […]
Watching a flock of birds and thinking, if only they took off right while I approached. And they did. Combined with the morning mist, the early morning sun, my office looked like a castle out of a fairytale. Ai that silly imagination. Laughing out loud when the car servicing was put off. 3 hours later, […]
The towers were swathed in white fluffy blankets as we drove into the city this morning. Walking to get a coffee, everything seemed so mysterious and horror-movie-esque. Spent time with myself and the voices in my head at lunch. The park was almost empty because of the weather. The birds were out and couldn’t stop […]
Saw a new facet of the photographer behind Top Model and Top Photographer. His passion, earnestness and love for family shone through. Didn’t expect a celebrity to be so down to earth. I came across a new definition of post processing – A photographer is like an inquisitor. A RAW file should be tortured into […]
Watched a course on Colour Theory. Skipped lunch to do so. Best hour of the day. Can’t believe I’ve had all the tools and never tried using them in the way that I learned to today. Work can be a drag, but with colleagues who are a hoot, life gets better. Am so grateful for […]
Finished several little tasks that I always manage to postpone. Felt good watching each line getting struck through. Broken. What a series. It turns your soul inside out and makes you take a long, hard look at it. Not always pretty, but there is always something to learn. The universe loves a stubborn heart. My […]
Watching a group of children shrieking with laughter as they ran around the fellowship room, bumping into knees and being rewarded with smiles. A drink with my soul-sister which turned out to be a 3 hour conversation on emotions, politics, relationships et al… A Spaniard, an English, a German and an Indian met for a […]
Decided to try out all those lighting tips that I picked up during the week. Didn’t get to all, but felt so much at peace after taking time to shoot today. Narcissism, Honour, Toxins, Truth. Spent a lot of time pondering all these aspects of life. Battling with myself about the merits of forgiveness. Are […]
Found that my residence permit allowed me a lot more access than I earlier believed it did. The trips keep planning themselves. Found 3 places that I want to visit desperately. But one at a time, I guess. My 3rd attempt at Spanish theatre. First was a good play in bad company, the second was […]
