Sparkler Dirt



Nonna

Bit of a personal one this time. 


Nonna - died 16th November 2006. My inspiration for photography, but died before I got into it. She doesn't know I'm doing my degree because of her. 
She's beautiful and I think about her a lot. I get told I look like her, and I'm proud of that!

So...

Relationships. Huh.


There are so many different ways to define this concept. No strings attached, friends with benefits, exclusive, open relationship, one night stand, married, single, complicated, divorced, separated...


Excuse my French, but for f**ks sake! Yes, we are a different species, men and women, but my god! I mean, we are - at the end of the day -  human, and we have similar emotions. It is time to forget the sex and lust and focus on what makes us and what makes you and see what there is in common. Why is it that if I talk to a man in a bar, they immediately think they are "going back to mine"... please! Is it impossible to believe that some women actually have self respect? Haha, I sound like such a feminist, but to be honest, it happens the other way around - girls who dress up in next to nothing and cakes make up on, extends their eyes, hair, boobs... you're not objects! You're people with something else to you than how good you look.


Please, just let people see what you're about, instead of having silent sex in a dark alleyway with a complete stranger who looks good after a rum & coke.


Rant over.

Riot! Riot!

This isn't funny any more. Not only has the rioting spread in London, it has also reached places like Birmingham, Leeds and BRISTOL! Where I LIVE! In fact, this burning car you see below was pictured about 100 yards from my front door. Bristol has always been prone to protest for protesting sake, and it's a little uneasy to think that I live in a city so easily manipulated into violence. I was sat in a cafe earlier and every few minutes a siren screamed past. 
Basically here my message to all you "rioters" ... you're not big, you're not clever, you're violent and stupid and stop burning stuff that isn't yours.
