Canal Mini-Stories

 

Change is indeed the only certain thing. I'm recycling old photos that I didn't have time to share in the blog in 2014. Because why not? 

For three months last year I lived in Clapton right next to the Canal. This was the road I walked from Clapton to Hackney Wick(ed) to have brunch with my friends or just because the day was lovely, like this one, almost a year ago.

Film stories

Hey everyone, happy December!

This should have happened eleven days ago, but, we still have 19 more December days to go, so woohoo! I finally developed a couple of weeks ago a bunch of films that were waiting impatiently in my desktop. There were photos from February, when it snowed in London. Go figure!

I guess that is partly why I don't mind taking ages to develop the film. Some part of me really like this delayed gratification of discovering what was on the reel. Some other part of me is just very lazy and busy and has a goldfish memory.

Anyway. It was super fun to see the photos and remember those moments. Here I share some of the photos with you. These are from London and the film apparently had a property to make every photo look like a 70's postcard. I love it!

Shuffle Festival @ St. Clements Social Club

St. Clements is a fomer mental facility in Mile End that recently opened its doors again to give place to a very peculiar Social Club. To help get the word out Danny Boyle*, the friendlier neighbour they could wish for, organised a mini Film Festival called Shuffle.

Both Shuffle and St. Clements are incredible good ideas, so watch this space for a second Shuffle and go and have a look at that incredible building in East London, they have cafés, bars, music, vintage stuff, nice gardens, incredible stories, and mysterious places for you to enjoy!


*He was always around, you can see him in my shy fan photo ;)
