AN ESSAY (of sorts) BY KEVIN MULLINS
The inspiration for my “essay”, if you will, is the last image in Neale’s recent post.
I’ve been at pains to think of something for my turn in this cycle for a while.
We’ve all been locked at home, and, thankfully, here in the UK at least, we are starting to see the sun again.
However, I don’t have any considered stories.
So I have effectively taken a mashup of some recent images that define my world at the moment.
But the thing is, that world is beautiful, and of course, Gemma and I have had our crazy arguments and the kids have driven us mad at times, but generally, I’ve seen this period as one of reflection and certainly of one that makes me realise this is our only life.
We have one life. We can bitch about it, or we can live it and love it.
Images in this collection are from my X100V, a prototype X-E4 and even my phone.
Not content with two dogs, Guinea Pigs and her brother. She now has a MASSIVE horse.
I actually don’t know whose feet these are. Not mine.
I feel like in this world of Zoom, this is what people think I look like now.
When your little brother uses the soap to wash his little brother bits in the shower.
The cuteness is disappearing. Now it’s all LED Lights and “Dad can I have a new graphics card”
But we taught him to ride a bike, finally.
Keep well, keep safe and remember that there is one life - live it.
