day ten of the Thirty Days of Vancouver, BC Autumn
just passing through
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a project I have had in mind for some time.
Repeated information in the spoiler:
SPOILERS! (Click to view)
Each new day will reward the viewer with a new photo; a new moment in the quick-changing world of autumn. It is my favourite season and an obvious choice as a beginning.
It is the start of my personal year; a true autumn baby.
Return to my journal once a day to see the new photo or follow my flickr stream (please see
previous journal entries for all the photos so far). I will do my best to post at similar times each day. I meant to post much earlier today but had other things to do. I am aiming for between 12-1pm PST / 3-4pm EST / 8-9pm BST each day, depending on distractions and unforeseen circumstances.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I hope you enjoy the once a day updates and for thirty days will be few words and mostly photos.
The photos will be a mix of many subject matters, so do not expect to only see scenic typical autumnal scenes. There will, of course, be some by that description.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At the end I hope to be able to offer a limited edition handmade book of all the prints, and also a less-expensive professionally produced photobook. Research is currently being undertaken to discover the best ways to offer this to my audience. More information will follow. For now, enjoy the photo(s) as they come.

It's funny how time passes and before you know it everything is all over. That's how I feel about so many things recently. I am already 1/3 through this project and it is passing me by quickly. Before I've even had chance to reflect whether I am choosing the right photos or even taking photos that are good enough to be included it is well under way and I'm sure before I next take a breath and count the stars it will all be over.
Like so many things in life it is important for me to not linger and reflect too much on the times gone by otherwise I will be forever glued to the spot. I have a compulsion for living through memory and it is not particularly healthy.
I have been reflecting today on lost friendships. Some through conflict and others through circumstance and yet more through ways I doubt I'll ever discover. Is it really good to look back and fear losing those friendships or should one simply carry on bursting through life as if they are a dinosaur in a delicate forest wrecking everything in its way?
never give in to
god bless

Cheers mama!
