James Mollison

About a year ago I was introduced to James Mollison's work with apes. The piece appeared in the recently launched Freestyle Magazine and I fell for the images that showed so much emotion in the subjects eyes. The facial features shows the onlooker the hurt, anger, happiness within these beautiful animals. With the allure of the spread in mind I was moved to check out Jame's other work- brilliant characters spotted at the concert of their chosen style icon.

After an evening in listening to Sammy Davis Jr I now want to shuffle ball chain regularly ( took A jazz class when I was 8 and learned that term).

The Road Not Taken

Robert Frost.


TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Rain Rain go away... unless.

I miss Thunderstorms. The raw beauty of nature. London has rain but it is never as attractive as the storms one witnesses with the lightening bolts and audio strong enough to tickle a building.

"I think there's a poet who wrote once a tragedy by Shakespeare, a symphony by Beethoven and a thunderstorm are based on the same elements. I think that's a beautiful line." - Maximilian Schell
