I know I'm way behind on talking about them but as I was belatedly unpacking a box today I found a few CD's. I knew I liked them, but it didn't take long before I realised just how much. I was half way through the first song when I realised the second had started and just as seamlessly I was taken back to my time in Iceland 9 months ago. In just one February week I felt at home in a stranger's country. Both personally and photographically I felt the most inspired, I felt stronger than I ever have been. I don't feel that I will ever choose to go back, I just have the feeling that that is where I will end up. I wonder if maybe I should have taken a bigger step, taken a risk and just gone there. As much as I enjoy Bournemouth, I just don't feel as creative here.
And although these will never be my proudest work, for me they define that week in Iceland. Just as that week defined me.
