Whether my family & friends like it or not…I’m always there with my camera, documenting things. That’s just how I experience life…and in the past few weeks, I have been witness to some major life moments; the passing of my Grandmother, the birth of a friend’s first child, and my little brother’s graduation from Mt. Allison University. Here are three snippets of life, at three very different stages;
In loving memory of Daisy Ireland….
The welcoming of Felix Pringle Harpur….
…and condradulations to Jono Echols!!

Bumped into your blog while searching for information about Vancouver. The photo of your grandmother is haunting. When my mom was dying, a couple of days before she passed away, I sat by her bed and sketched her, so I can relate. I guess it’s an artist’s way to cope with those major life moments.

Jen- so sorry to learn of Daisy’s sad passing. No doubt Hal’s “Daisy, Daisy”, featuring in “2001- a space odyssey”, has entered the family folklore? Quite by chance your shutter talents had been recently mentioned during yesteryear reflection with fellow Kiwis -the Shaw family (visitors to your folks 2005). Google not only revealed your blog, but even faces -& emotions- from 35 years back. We also have a Jonathan!
I’m somewhat hestitant about posting, but given my own modest 35mm skills, pondered diverse ‘72-’73 BC & family pix may be appreciated. Manuka
