This image is inspired by the photography of Bill Henson and the taste for darkness, texture and creating a subliminal energy. The focus of the sprawling arms as they cut diagonals through the image to the dark silvery tones help create the ambiguous nature of the image – is it uplifting or helplessness. You decide.

Because one day He will also left us. You know why? / Because, we the human beings became inhuman… / We lost our values, our soul, we forgot our heart(s)... / We are now violent, intolerant… Ignoring those who need us. We lost humanity. We lost ourselves. / The angel is dying, slowly but surely. / We killed Him. / Our nature has changed… My gallery is Copyright © Wandering Soul.

I was at an old church to shoot a christening and decided to run up to the balcony for a better view and there was this little girl ! I stopped at the doorway and shot this with my 200 prime lens. It turned out to be my fav shot of the day. I later found her family after asking around and sent them a copy of the painitng in exchange for permssion to use the image as I please. / This was painted in Photoshop CS2

A Painting by : Shree & Ami(my wife) / Wonderful Words by : Sally Omar Well this is a moment of a poor family waiting desperately together for their father who has still not returned after whole days work, where one kid is elder sister and standing behind another is younger son waiting and being impatient about their fathers uncertain returning issue back to their house. I specifically wanted to show their love, bond, respect, intimacy, curiocity, closeness, affection, feeling of insecurity, fear and a sense of worriedness, impatience and all sorts of wieard thoughts going on specially in the mind of the mother who desperately wants her husband to return back to home soon as its already too late and as both the children are hungry along with her, all of them waiting for their dad to acompany them at whatever food they have left with. Being mother of two little kids she cannot cry or show her sense of worry infront of kids but still she is infact so upset, so tensed and so curious for finding the reasons about not returning back of her husband till so late which she reflects throught her eyes and facial expressions along with managing her kids by giving them assurance that he will comeback soon. My wife Ami helped me a lot specially for bringing those waiting expressions on the face for which i will always be grateful to her unmatched artistic skills. / All the artwork is given a sepia tone with charcoal to show the feel of my theme desperate – await, which i think goes well with the moment of impatience…enjoy. And lastly a special thanks to Sally who did a marvellous job within no time giving a touch of liveliness to these waiting family with her wonderful words.

/>I am a missionary born in Northern Ireland and living in London for the past 23 years. This photograph of Angelena was taken while at a Church service in, Nigeria. This was the first time i met her. She was sitting at the back of the church against the wall on a seat all alone. I used full zoom and took over 50 photographs of her. This is the only one that came out good. this was not a planned pose and I caught her like this without her knowing. she was quite a distance from me. I was sitting on the platform waiting to be called to speak. This young Girl inspired me so much. Her young life is an inspiration to me of how faith and hope can carry us through difficult times. Angelina is 12 years old . She is one of the children we have been caring for for the past three years. When we found her three years ago she was close to death and without Parents. Three years later she is loved and attends school. We can and do make a difference to children in extreme poverty and sick. All it takes is Love and a heart of compassion to sow a little time and money into a child’s life and you will see the transformation. Angelina was dying from malaria when we first saw her. Now she lives a full life. She says she wants to be a doctor and help others who are sick. God bless her and all who helped us in helping her. 100% of all proceeds from sales of my art ,donated art, and donations made via Philadelphia Mission Charity website, goes to help extreme poor in Isolated and Rural villages in Africa.

I took this picture in the bus that was taking me from Jujuy ( north of Argentina ) to La Quiaca, at the border with Bolivia ! This child was sitting just next to me. / Loved the way his father was looking after him, although he fell asleep more than once leaving the little child curiously looking around when at some point he stared at me for so long that I had the time to get my camera and take this picture !

Inspired By: Metal Heart- Cat Power listen here / Metal Heart Lyrics / Losing the star without a sky / Losing the reasons why / You’re losing the calling that you’ve been faking / And i’m not kidding It’s damned if you don’t and it’s damned if you do / Be true ‘cause they’ll lock you up in a sad sad zoo / Oh hidy hidy hidy what cha tryin to prove / By hidy hidy hiding you’re not worth a thing Sew your fortunes on a string / And hold them up to light / Blue smoke will take / A very violent flight / And you will be changed / And everything / And you will be in a very sad sad zoo. I once was lost but now i’m found was blind / But now I see you / How selfish of you to believe in the meaning of all the bad dreaming Metal heart you’re not hiding / Metal heart you’re not worth a thing Metal heart you’re not hiding / Metal heart you’re not worth a thing
My Website The Last Day on Earth Look down the ground below is crumbling / Look up the stars are all exploding It’s the last day on earth / In my dreams / It’s the end of the world / And you’ve come back to me / In my dreams Between the dust and the debris / There’s a light surrounding you and me It’s the last day on earth / In my dreams / It’s the end of the world / And you’ve come back to me / In my dreams And you hold me closer than I can ever remember being held. / I’m not afraid to sleep now, if we can stay like this until It’s the last day on earth / In my dreams / It’s the end of the world / And you’ve come back to me In my head I replay our conversations / Over and over til they feel like hallucinations / You know me? I love to lose my mind / And every time anybody speaks your name I still feel the same / I ache, I ache, I ache inside Kate Miller-Heidke
