Birthday Candles
Picture taken by my Dad, a great photographer, taken merely by candlelight. Adore the eyes of all three in photo. Thank goodness, center, the Birthday Boy, Dad of the kids, eventually dumped the glasses, unfortunately only recently when they fell apart. Not sure the ages here, but soon the two kids would be joined by a little brother who today is 26. Photographer no-longer alive, so picture though always appreciated, has become even more special, feel more aware of him, almost like a fourth person though not really there then or now.
Morning Snow
First snow of 08. I made my boyfreind get up well early, which he hates, and take photos with me. The park was empty and scilent but looked so beautiful with a blanket of snow.
John
John loved photography and at the age of just 17 had travelled round Europe taking photos with a group of friends. He left my nan’s house in a hurry and didn’t bother to wear his motorbike helmet. he died from head injuries when he crashed into a wall near my school aged 18. Afew months later the compulsory wearing of motorbike helmets was introduced.
Cat in Window
I watch the light gently filter in, glowing brighter each day. Although I cannot yet see, I know I will be fine. This is all that I’ll ever need. This is all we’ll ever need. To feel the light and feel loved.
Lonely Mornings
Lonely mornings without your voice, without your attention, without your mug in your hands are nothing. Miss you so much. I count days when I can see this mug and my face in your hands.
