22 Oct – Wordless Wednesday

A Wordless Wednesday: take and post a picture of the fallen leaves outside.

 

It’s currently the last month of spring before we head into Summer, here in ‘Straya, so the closes thing I have to fallen leaves is this…

Feb 27: Photographic Regrets

Tell us about a picture you never snapped that you wish you had.

 

I really wish I had more photos of a lot of moments from my life.

Birthdays. Dance comps. Holidays. Hanging out with my friends etc. I just don’t have them. I’m not actually sure why that is. I know that we had a camera, and I remember that my father had bought it, and nobody else was allowed to touch it, because it was quite expensive. I remember that he used to keep it in one of his drawers, and as kids, we were forbidden to go through his drawers. I remember that if I ever wanted to take a photo, I had to get his permission and that was quite rare.

Most people have album after album of photos, documenting their entire lives – I don’t. I have maybe a couple of packets of photos, most of which are from when I was a baby, or a small child. I don’t have photos of any of my dance comps, because my parents never came to them. I have only two or three photos of some of my costumes out of something like 13years of dancing and that makes me really sad. Photos are documented memories that people keep for the rest of their lives, and now, those memories exist only in my very scattered brain.

Feb 14: Someone You Love

Show Me Fridays: upload an image to your blog (with or without words) of someone you love deeply.

Dec 25: Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas (if you’re Christian)! Share a photo from your day.

Oddly enough, I didn’t actually take any photos over the Christmas / New Year period… I posed to have photos taken, but didn’t actually take any myself.

Instead, I have these…
