I wonder what he was in a former life?? He sat very still and waited patiently for his owner to come and get him. ;)

week 3 - Stripes - Sarah Schloo and Geekgirly

Top: Sarah Schloo

Bottom: Geekgirly

Sarah Schloo: ...this was a shot of some Italian biscuits I took last week on a market stall in London, it was one of a few different images from the market that I was thinking of doing for my 52 weeks, but I ended up choosing another shot. I am so pleased to be able to use this one as well!!

Geekgirly: This was the first time during this project that I actually got to see the image and knew what my partner's subject was. Saying that, I don't think that it really made a difference in the subject matter of my image. I had planned on shooting this image as soon as we were given the themes for this week - I guess you could say that Sarah and I were on the same wavelength!

I have been wanting to photograph this for a long time. Not sure if this photo does my vision justice, but I like how the red paint sort of "pops".

This is the collaboration between Elle Moss and I for "The Divine Diptych Project."

This is a diptych project by a group of female photographers who have known each other a long time on Flickr. The project matchs two of us together each week with a different theme to interpret how we want, on an individual basis. We then create a diptych using each of our photographs. The only thing Elle Moss and I agreed upon before we shot our images this week was that we would both shoot in colour and square format.

The results of the collabrations are being posted on a blog, which you can find here ...

“I want a love like my bed. Someone to support me, someone comfortable, someone who will listen to everything I say, and will be there to catch all my tears. Essentially, a bed is the greatest model of an idealistic love there is.”

I think it might be time to get my bicycle out again! Although after spending the winter on my balcony I wouldn't be surprised if all of the gears seize!

Libra (week of March 4 2010)

Temple Grandin is a successful autistic person. Diagnosed at an early age, she nevertheless went on to earn a PhD in Animal Science and became a bestselling author whose work has led to notable improvements in the humane treatment of livestock. Although she acknowledges that her autism has caused her problems, she also believes it gives her abilities that non-autistic people don't have. For example, her extreme sensitivity and extraordinary visual memory are at the root of her unique insights into the needs of animals. If there were an instant cure for her autism, she says, she wouldn't take it. She's an advocate of neurodiversity. Now here's my question for you, Libra: Do you have a supposed weakness or disability that's actually an inherent part of one of your special talents? Celebrate and cultivate it this week.
