“Did you ever stop to think, and forget to start again?” - Winnie the Pooh - As a street photographer, I have to admit, there’s something absolutely amazing about taking random photos of strangers on the streets. I think part of it is the varied reactions I get when I point my camera towards them.

As photographers, we're probably more critical of our images than our audiences. I know, that's a cliched and grandiose overgeneralization. But hey...humor me.

HEATWAVE ...My electric fan shattered with a power surgeInto fragmented plastic shards.I so miss it now.It’s oppressively tropical,With volcanic heatAnd pressure bearing down on us.The clammy mugginess of a sauna.Not the clean dry air you find abroad,Yet still that remorseless torrid scorching,Roasting and toasting.Just too much...
