The Dryad's Bubble

Product of a Kensington Market junk shop rummage.

“B, next time, if you have to go away - take me with you.  I’m so pleased you’re back.  Love, S.  5th August 1986”

Oh, B.  I don’t know where you are now, or how this ended up in a junk shop in Kensington.  I don’t know if you went away again, and if you took S with you, or  maybe S changed their mind and one day went away without you.  Or maybe you are still together somewhere, writing these notes whenever one of you has to go away.  Maybe you both remember the fact this note happened, or maybe one of you does, or maybe neither of you do.  But all that can be said is that on the 5th August 1986, you came home to a heartfelt welcome.  We should all be so lucky, at least once or twice in our lives.

Wild Horse, Mongolia
Photograph by Chris Neale, My Shot
I love the simplicity of this image, which draws you in and keeps you there. There is absolutely nothing fancy about the shot, achieved with a basic 70mm lens. It’s the subject matter that makes it compelling, but in a subtle way. What especially makes the shot for me is the beautiful wave in the horse’s mane and forelock. I also love that the photographer included the open sky and mountain, but without unnecessary drama, showing just that gentle peak and the simple elements of the tree and log.

I love the idea of him walking around thinking of himself IN BOLD ITALIC CAPITALS.

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.” — Steve Jobs
