This is one of my favourite photographs I have taken over the last week. It is a photograph of my sister with my two sons staring at the Tower Bridge in London. Usually the focus should be on the landmarks of the place you visit, but for this one I wanted to capture the moment. My sister, a fellow Third Culture Kid (TCK), lives a highly nomadic life as well. She currently lives in DC working as sommelier though will be overseas again come the spring. In my family we never really know when we will see eachother next or where in the world. So capturing this lovely moment of her with my sons at this age was so important. I love to capture all the things that travelers and tourists take on the cameras but I equally like the people and moments for our visual memories.
I am looking forward to sharing our recent travels in the UK over the next several Travel Tuesday posts. We spent a week in Snowdonia, Wales; two days in Notting Hill and throughout London, England; and will be going up to the place of my birth which is Oxford, England today. So many places in a short time with family can be a bit overwhelming. But for us we just took each day at a time and made sure savour each memory.
