As a reader Tarot has fascinated me for many years. I love the connection it creates between you and the querant – the privilege of being let into their life for even a brief time to explore things that really matter to them. And the process of giving them the gift of maybe seeing something that had been intractable to them in a whole new light. / I also love masque and candle light so Alison joined me to try and pull these different elements together.

This is a reflection of autumn grapevine leaves on a bedroom window taken in late afternoon light. I took a long time to position the camera on a tripod to create a balanced composition of the reflection and my daughter. She loves reading, so the frown is one of intense concentration, not unhappiness. Not a double exposure! Taken with Velvia and a Nikon F4. Scan by Jeremy Daalder.
This photo was taken at the Temple of Literature while on a trip in Vietnam in 2003. It was taken using B+W transparency film.

How to Draw Manga is a series of instructional books on drawing manga published by Graphic-sha, by a variety of authors. Originally in Japanese for the Japanese market, many volumes have been translated into English and published in the US. Of the wide range of manga-how-tos available for westerners, the series is seen as one of the more useful, both for its provenance and wide range of practical tips. The English-language volumes in the series were co-produced by Graphic-sha and two other Japanese companies, Japanime Co. Ltd. and Japan Publications Trading Co. Shoujo is a term used in English to refer to manga and anime aimed at a female audience between the ages of 10 and 18. The term is a transliteration literally Young girl. The genre is stereotyped as melodramatic stories of romance usually with a female protagonist, and drawn in a flowing style where beautiful characters with huge, intricately drawn eyes become spontaneously surrounded by flowers, stars, and bubbles.

Brookgreen Gardens, was the first public sculpture garden in America. It has in its collection more than 1,200 works by 350 sculptors. The arts patron and scholar, Archer Milton Huntington (1870-1955), and his wife, renowned sculptor Anna Hyatt Huntington (1876-1973), founded Brookgreen in 1931. Designed around the walkways laid out by Mrs. Huntington, the gardens have long been regarded as one of the nation’s most beautiful botanical displays. Exhibited within them is the largest and most comprehensive collection of American figurative sculpture in the country, by sculptors who worked from the early nineteenth century to the present. Brookgreen Gardens is a National Historical Landmark, and is accredited by the American Association of Museums. This statue is called “Len Ganeway” by sculptor Derek Wernher. It is one of the many statues you’ll see on your walk around Brookgreen Gardens, Murrells Inlet, SC 29576. Camera: 5D
