A few from the road…

A long way from home with a long way yet to go. I’ve covered more than 2,000km and estimate it will be another 2,000 before I get home late next month. In the meantime here are a few pictures taken along the way:

Photos within photos…

Photos within photos: a fascination. They are like a slice of time contained within a slice of time; a mirror reflected within a mirror. Like looking at a scene through a door framed within an open window. I came across  this discarded portrait of an Australian soldier. It had been rescued from the city dump. I wonder where he ended up?

This is some of the most moving and powerful photojournalism I’ve seen in many a long year…any comment other than to direct you to this work is unnecessary…
