Sms reply : "How did you guys get to learn bout this? This year might be quite tough. Have lots of backlog stuff to finish like.....[blah blah blah]....So quite unlikely. But do show pictures."
As promised, Mr Sanguine (aka Southpark and the pilot-who-saw-lights-flashing-in-the-sky-in-my-alien-video) distributed an email asking us to check out his photos. That was when I realised he'd started a photo and rambling blog just in Dec 05 (well, aren't all blogs one's window for rambling?). I clicked on Mr Sanguine's Blog and just as I'd expected.....bloody genius! Having seen some delectable teasers he took of aviation and travel photos, his photo documentary of Calcutta was just amazing. Made me hair stand! Hats off, big time, Southpark!!!
Mr Sanguine, Pauline and the Devil had embarked on a photo trip documenting the works of Calcutta Rescue, an NGO operating in Kolkata aiming to improve the health and quality of life of socially disadvantaged populations. It just goes to show the power of visuals.....whether they be photos or moving pictures....there's no better way at tugging at the heartstrings of the common folk than meaningful images, more so if they're beautifully shot!
Wonder when I'll get to see Gan's collection of photos? Hmmm....
The photo above is just one of several that Mr Sanguine had taken at my knotty affair. I personally like the silhouette piece of Chuckie above. For lack of a face, suffice to say for now that Charlene is a friend, an ex-house and band mate who gave up her day job in search of happiness as a singer and a star! Her performance haunts, late evenings either at Acid Bar down at Emerald Hill or Ballymoon's at Orchard Hotel Shopping Arcade. You MUST go drown yourself in that voice of hers....it simply melts your heart and soul! Upcoming blog : Music, Sax..and all that jazz!
Dun forget to click on Mr Sanguine's blog and Calcutta Rescue!!!
