The Last Photo My Camera Ever Took
This was the last photo my camera ever took; this photo symbolised conquest and freedom one second, and then in a blink of an eye and a cruel twist of irony later it caused my relationship with that camera to come to an abrupt end.

While recently on a trip to New York, I decided to walk the Brooklyn Bridge. It was the first time I had seen the city’s skyline from afar – it was an instantly recognisable collection of shapes. Shapes that felt so familiar to me as these were the images produced again and again in television shows and films that I had grown up watching. It was a beautiful day; the combination of the sun, the scene before me, and the sense of freedom one is overcome with when about to embark on solo travels had me feeling absolutely invincible.
