That Elusive Signature Photograph
Tuesday, November 15, 2016
In Victoria BC I have a photographer friend called Gerry
Schallié. He uses a few words every once
in a while that make me smile. When he comes to Vancouver he might call me up
and say (as he always says), “Why don’t we go somewhere to have a bite to eat?”

I don’t agree with him.
In our old Athlone home in Kerrisdale I had around 85 mostly
old and English Roses. On any given day I might have been asked, “Which is your
favourite rose?” My answer was always, “It depends.” My answer also depended on
the day of the week and the time of the month.
Now here I have placed two photographs. I like both of
them but I would be unable to tell you which is my favourite. It really
depends, doesn’t it?
