January 1st

Today is one of those curious days when we find ourselves looking two ways at once. On the one hand the New Year has begun, and we are looking forward. On the other, shops and businesses are not yet fully open, so it feels as if the New Year can’t quite begin and reflections creep in.

I have just come across Tom Hussey’s beautiful collection of images for the Novartis Reflections campaign. Designed to advertise a drug to help Alzheimers patients with memory loss, they seem to capture now and then with a singular elegance. Click on the image below to visit the whole gallery.

Whatever 2013 holds, I hope that there will be some of the haunting beauty and compassion shown by Hussey’s lens here.
