Missed opportunity

I feel have a missed a big opportunity by not documenting the changes that occur here in more detail, I some ways I don't think I was prepared for the changes to be so drastic and sudden. It just doesn't happen in the UK. If I was to do this trip again I would create a project around the changes, probably documenting them in a photographic way. I think it could have been a very interesting opportunity and defiantly a missed opportunity. I think I allowed this to happen as I got swept along with my new surroundings and new life where everything is so different to home.

Sudden Change

As I walked out of my apartment this morning there was a change in the air, it reminded me of home. Damp, dew and wet leaves hung in the air, as it started to rain in Rovaniemi! After so many days of constant snow I was shocked to see rain drops falling, and even more surprised at how suddenly things had started to melt. The roads and paths have been turned to slush and everything now has a brown tinge to it, not a nice change. I wish I had started a project when I arrived so that I could see these sudden changes in photographs, you sometimes miss the changes when you are here.
