I thought i’d be a bit Bresson-esq and do some black and white action shots. Didn’t help that I was Leica-less though…

I Swear...

…by my life and my love for it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.

There are no contradictions. If you think you have one, check your premises, you’ll find one of them to be wrong.

Lazy

The sun is out but I find myself will things to do that do not involve nature but more desks and tables. London is beautiful in sun, mind, it’s hard to fault it. Although with the sun do come tourists: the bane of my life. They’re just in the way. All the time. Not to mention trees shedding reproductive gammets which have a tendency of flying into people’s eyes. Other than that, hard to fault it.

Oh, London I love you, don’t get sunburnt.

Waking Up

What is up with body clocks? Just when you think you know what to expect it goes and changes time zone and suddenly you find yourself going to sleep and 2am and having to wake up at 7am when all you would like to do is sleep in until 10. Nay, even 11. This whole biological timing thing is just one of the many evolutionary traits that we as a race have carried over into modernity and it continues to hold average Joe back from conscious greatness. Screw the body clock i say, but i cannot fight it.
