That’s wonderful, Robyn. Strangely, in some ways photography does transcend time. Interesting.

I’ve taken to carrying a Memento Mori medal in my bra everyday, to remind myself this may be my last day on Earth.

Of course you may find wearing a bra uncomfortable 😉

I've never been able to find one that fits well. But the memento mori idea is intteresting.

I’ve taken to not wearing a bra at all because life it too short for that level of discomfort. SPW - this was good but did you know that I have a pretty unhealthy relationship with time? It is a ‘four-letter word’, literally and metaphorically. I get very wound up about the lack of it, how I spend it, the way it moves along without regard for life... I’m going to ponder your comments because I think your take on t**e might help me change my perspective. But for now, no time to ponder! Got to get to the beach for sunrise! 🌅

I hope you t**med your visit to the beach well, otherwise you will feel like a total failure (for getting to the beach after the best time for sunrise). curiously, if you just sit and contemplate your naval, as i have suggested, sunset will arrive and you can enjoy that.

SPW, the beach was lovely until I fell over on a concrete path and hurt myself 🥴 Can we talk about falling? If they gave out medals for it as a sport, I’d have quite a few! 🥇🥇🥇🥇

Falling is such a rich topic. Are you ok?

Jen King's avatar

Sort of. Embarrassed, sad that I’m so clumsy, sorry I’m not graceful...

Appreciate the piece Stephen. I have re-discovered photography and if there's something the cuts through time it is focusing a lens on a tree or a leaf or a bee on a flower.
