Tapping gingerly through the fog


Freddie lives in the room next to my brother. He tends to follow me, when I visit Baz. It is very easy to include him in my banter. He is one of six, is Freddie. In the middle somewhere. I know this because I met his siblings last week, five of them. All very similar. They were the ones who cajoled him into smiling for me.

Love the connection with Freddie that you have tapped into in your capture Julie.

Freddie is very fortunate to have all his five siblings alive and visiting him.

Julie, I've seen some great pics from up top of One Bligh, but don't know if it's open to the general public.

You have learnt so much about portraiture since your 100 stranger days. They are wonderful and so honouring of the people.

Julie you always manage to capture something special about the eyes in this series of portraits. So much in the eyes it's almost heartbreaking.
