@Anna- thank you so much for letting me know her name!!!! I actually took her card in Stockholm (a year and a bit ago!) but couldn't find it this morning when I was posting on the blog. So thank you very much Anna!
@Anonymous- there are so many beautiful, stylish women "of a certain age" in the world... I really must take more photos of them. I saw an amazing lady in Lake Annecy over Christmas...and I am ashamed to admit it but I felt too intimidated to ask for her photo. I am kicking myself now that I didn't ask (I always remember the photos I miss out on).....the worst she could say was Non!
May: Australia as a travel destination; Flat whites + cold pressed coffee from Ltd espresso + brew bar (Brunswick St, Brisbane) and BlackStar Coffee Roasters (West End, Brisbane); Avocado on toasted Turkish bread from Leavain Bakery (pick up a slab at the Jan Powers Powerhouse Farmers Market) with a drizzle of Joseph olive oil; Steak at the Brekky Creek Hotel (it may not be the best steak in Australia but a char-grilled steak in the iconic Beer Garden on a warm, sunny Autumn day is pretty hard to beat!); Bill Granger's Spicy Roast Pumpkin Salad (so delicious especially with bbq'd lamb cutlets. Add a little less cumin and cayenne pepper if you like things less spicy); Jocelyn's Provisions blonde brownie (a delicious sweet treat); Band of Outsiders cutout silk-chiffon midi dress (so dreamy and floaty.... perfect for warm spring evenings. Wear with flat summer sandals for the "I am definitely on holidays look!"); Current/Elliott The Infantry jacket (a cool alternative to the ubiquitous olive army jacket); Nicholas Kirkwood lace-mesh pumps(wear with a crisp white shirt, denim jeans + a bold red lip); J Brand Relaxed slouchy overalls (if you haven't got your hands on a pair of overalls yet...get on it! This yellow pair would be like wearing the sun on a daily basis); Tibi eyelet embroidered dress (a sweet dress for apres-beach.....or when you wish it was apres-beach!);J. Crew Collage crystal drop earrings (love the acid bright colours!); Topshop embroidered horse sweat (dreaming of my holiday at the White Stallion Ranch earlier this year); Topshop peplum frill corset (so pretty!); Reading: Australian Gourmet Traveller + MADE Quarterly magazine; Listening to: Just Give Me A Reason Pink/Nate Ruess, and Mountain Sound Of Monsters and Men; Watching: Django Unchained (brilliant, brilliant movie. I watched it while on my looooong Qantas flight)
I am an Australian lawyer turned photographer living in London;
I take a thousand photographs every day - some in my head, some with my camera;
I can't imagine doing anything else with my life- I am totally and utterly in love with my camera and with the people and things I photograph
Thank you for this wonderful photo I was feeling rather old and unloved this morning this ladies wonderful glow has given me some pep!
