Ancestors

I am going to Greece soon. I've just finished my olives I picked in the Constantia valley.  Here is a picture of my YiaYia Chrissy when my brother George was just a single digit. I want to say this is circe 1977.  The home she was born in is one of my favorite places on Earth.  I'm so happy to be able to sleep within those walls. The very same space she was born into.

My lovely Seastars

Donut. Happy Birthday. I love your style and bright smile under this pose.

Zereshk

I love these little berries of sour goodness. Zereshk as I grew up knowing them always found themselves in Giti's blissful rice.  Was so happy when I was tagged in this photo.  I may need to plant my own Beriberis.

Tehran Night Market

This picture is from my seastar's album when she visited home in July.  I want to go to Iran and smell and taste all the wonder she captured in her pictures. She says I would love it, and I know I would. I am sure I have been there before in some other lifetime.  Now's the time to retap into my Farsi-speaking skills.

Refashioning Manoula's Dress

I am refashioning my mom's dress for the love revolution festival wedding we are soon to be planning for next year.  I am going to see the dress soon and wear it with such pleasure- restructuring it with Ronel's help. Here is a picture of the detail, the hand beaded parts my mom did for her wedding in 1969.  Today is my parent's anniversary.  It was a Priscilla gown, she explains to me.  Whatever it is, I will love to use it's vintage allure. I can't wait to see how it evolves into a three-in-one gown of beautiful feminine love and powah.

Happy People on the Bus

The wheels on the bus go round and round, all through this town.  I snagged this picture of Bookface cause it made me smile.  I love when signs can be canvases.  I don't know where this is but me gusta.

Life in Smoke

The image I found from my friend Evz as her avatar. I don't know where it comes from but the emotion behind it speaks loud.  A Girl-Womyn inhaling her life in smoke.

The Cape Argus Cycle Tour in Cape Town



 In just under 3 hours, womyn and men of the Cape Argus Cycle Tour completed the ride from Cape Town's city centre and back again on the most beautiful peninsula of the world.  I woke up on Sunday morning to cheers and clapping for the dedication of cyclists making their way around Boyes Drive in Muizenberg.  Just steps from our home was a refueling spot of blue energy drink and I managed to capture some young faces touring their own city's landscape on their self-powered bicycles.  It was a gorgeous Sunday of hope and positivity to watch thousands of people travel through the city.

Earth Movements, what 8.9 looks like

Trail of Shock - Massive Japan Quake: First Photos - Photo Gallery - LIFE
Is Earth quake-shaking us to wake up? Should we be so humancentric to think these disasters are happening because of us or are we just a part of a natural cycle?
It's up to us how we react to these movements, will it be a spark similar to the seismological chart or will we drown in the sweeping depths of our preoccupied mind?
Visually, humanely, environmentally 8.9 has many faces. Let's share strength, courage and continued support to all our coastlines receiving the magnitude on a physical level.
