A quick announcement…

The end of Japan?
NB: Some of my earliest blogs no longer have their accompanying images but enjoy the copy!

I don’t think you’ll need reminding that this Sunday will mark the one year anniversary of the Fukushima tragedy in Japan, which saw thousands of people lose their lives and homes. Many bodies are yet to be found and … Continue reading
Hiatus
NB: Some of my earliest blogs no longer have their accompanying images but enjoy the copy! I regret to inform you that I’m having to take a few weeks away from blogging. If you’ve been following me on Twitter at all, you might know that I’ve had a lot going on over the past few … Continue reading

I haven’t had the time to write this week’s post but, thanks to the perfect timing Zak Baney and Minha Kim, I have the pleasure of promoting a certain short film on my blog. I have copied the email … Continue reading
