The photograph is a tool used to take you back to a certain point in one's life, to remember a face or a place you once stood. I feel there is always something quite melancholic about a photograph.

Don't be put off by someone telling you that your image looks too digital; maybe that's the way it's supposed to look.

The kindergarten children are confident in spirit, infinite in resources, and eager to learn. Everything is still possible.

If it's true love, then it will abide. If it was a fleeting crush, then it will turn to dust. Either way, the truth will out.
