The sea's only gifts are harsh blows, and occasionally the chance to feel strong.

Now, I don't know much about the sea, but I do know that that's the way it is here.

I also know how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong

but to feel strong.

To measure yourself at least once.

To find yourself at least once in the most ancient of human conditions.

A quote by Chris McCandless from the movie 'Into the Wild'

MUST MUST MUST be more proactive with blog!! My job is going wonderfully, Im getting back into the darkroom and film alot more lately too, more pics to come.
On a completely different subject, I have a new found fascination with the spunky Miss Hanigan from one of my favorite movies of all time, Annie. She is pure vintage heaven! And Rooster's bird Lily...best dresses ever!

I must say, although I miss home and the summer sunshine, Autumn in England is subtly enticing. I spent a lovely Sunday wandering Columbia Rd flower markets and Brick Lane taking photos in the crisp London breeze. Very inspiring...here are some of the shots

Happy Halloween! Any excuse to dress up is fine with me! I went to a friends house party were the theme was 'Dead Celebrities', I went as Courtney Love, I know she's not technically dead but she's pretty close...

The photos below were found on one of my fav blogs, Cuillère à absinthe - fashion forward Halloween - loves it!

Just stumbled on this post browsing Abundance, have a look at Erin Endicott's designs....Absolutely breathtaking!!! Im in love.....

I have a job!!! Finally, I am teaching Art and Photography in a secondary school here in London, Im so excited! I can channel so much creative energy into others and my own work when I feel I have a clear purpose, and now i do. I have also been signed up to an Illustration Agency recently called Inky Illustration, which is a massive step forward! They say good things come in three's, Im hoping Iv got another pleasant surprise waiting for me! See more of my illustration on my other blog, or my website.
Agata Stoinska is the photographer responsible for the beautiful work below, which is so much more inspiring knowing I will be teaching photography from now on (which means living and breathing it - Bliss!) These are via a favourite blog of mine, Abundance.
