  • This ward was not used to having to wear full PPE, but due to the Coronavirus Pandemic they suddenly fouynd themselves having to wear full PPE as if on the ITU Wards.  It was poignant the missing mask, and although this nurse was perfecty fine, so many NHS colleagues have lost their lives to Covid19 in the care of others. <br />
<br />
From my exhibition series for  BetsiCadwaladr via @BetsiResearch<br />
The brief was NOT frontline action, but the way hospitals & staff have adapted to cope with the crisis, from PPE to social distancing & also those vital behind the frontline workers essential throughout the crisis to support frontline NHS staff. <br />
A selection of my images will be printed by me to form a small touring exhibition open to the public later in the year hopefully. In the meantime, there will be an online gallery showing a larger range of the images I've taken.

  • "Coming Home" shot just now!<br />
<br />
Having been stranded in South Africa during the worst pandemic in a century, when poverty and related crime become as potentially dangerous as the virus itself, we were finally evacuated back to the UK by a British Government plane. We are so relieved to be back on Welsh soil, and to have the relative freedom to walk out of our front gates, something denied to us for more than three weeks in locked down South Africa.<br />
<br />
We did a lovely walk today to try and regenerate ourselves and it was Heaven. We met several wonderful friends along the way, whom from several meters away, we were able to enjoy chatting with, revelling in human communication with others, again something denied during a total lockdown in South Africa.<br />
<br />
We ended the walk via the Belgian Prom and honestly, Telford’s Bridge has never looked so solid, so magnificent, so secure, so timeless, so beautiful. That bridge has seen wars and diseases and big cultural changes, and it’s outlived us all. It was familiar, it was welcoming, it was reassuring and ‘normal’. Watching the tide roaring between the arches was mesmerising and levelling. We will have lost so many people to this awful, society and world changing disease, but the planet will keep on spinning, the tide will keep on turning and the sun will keep on shining regardless.<br />
<br />
As I worry beyond all worry, about my Jani walking into a dangerous zone in the local hospital on a regular basis, and potentially bringing the danger home as well, I desperately try to remember that we all die eventually anyway, but that ‘life‘ will go on. It’s all a matter of time but I really don’t want anyone I love to go just yet.
