"Madame Li's Home Care Worker", Sete, France, September 2009. Juliana Beasley
Hi All!
I thought a last note might be a photograph from my new book called "Sete 2010". I lived and photographed in Sete, France during September 2009. I learned a lot during the residency. Hard lessons learned, but now the book is being laid out and it will be out in the Spring of 2010.
It was a difficult journey but in the end, I feel like I came away with a lot.
So, here are a couple of images that are about an aging Vietnamese woman living in Sete.

Happy New Years....
Suggestion:
Write a list of the resolutions you want to bring into the New Year and then write a list of what you want to leave behind in 2009.
Scratch a match and light the list of things you want to put behind you. Do this is in a safe place, don't use fuel such as gasoline.
I like to do these ceremonies over my aluminum sink. Let the smoke take it up to the universe and say, "So, long suckers!"
Peace and love and compassion in 2010!

Well done...
However, I can't help but think of that fad about 5 or 6 years ago, where we were all getting lectured to eat like the French. Remember that thing? Yeah... the French Diet. Eat like the French because there are no fat women in France. It must have been true because I saw it on the TV news! :)
But then there is your top photo here....
Just sayin.
Looking forward to the book being released! It will sit nicely next to my copy of your Lapdancer book! :)
thanks Troy!
