🦓 So funny seeing this outfit pop up on my timeline from 10 years ago.

A lot has changed since then. I was in Dubai the first time round, jokingly trying on safari outfits in the mall for a trip to South Africa.

One thing stands true a decade on — the energy and vitality have subsided, and I’ve gained a lot of inflammatory weight, especially since my hospitalisation.

The zebra is the mascot for rare diseases, born from the need to overcome outdated medical teachings: “When you hear hoofbeats, think horses, not zebras.” Medical students are taught to look for the most obvious and common cause of a patient’s symptoms (the horse) before suspecting an exotic or rare condition (the zebra). While the phrase warns against over-diagnosing rare illnesses, the rare disease community adopted the zebra as its official mascot — a reminder to clinicians that zebras do exist, and that rare conditions collectively affect millions of people.

The zebra was camouflaged then, and the stripes are still not fully visible to the medical community now after the damage is done. 🦓

Dear problems
Give me a short break…

Every now and then again we need to pause and reset.

Autumn 🍂 weather changes usually trigger my flare ups - this time also fuelled by antibiotics. I’ve not needed any since June, so it’s not a bad run compared to last year 💊 but they also have their own problems for me with various allergies and side effects.

A restful weekend is on the cards.

It’s September 1st, which means somewhere the Hogwarts Express just left Platform 9¾ 🚂✨

Meanwhile, my version of “back to school” is a lot less magical — new country, new routine, still figuring out where everything goes. No wand required, just patience.

Anyone else feel like this time of year always signals a fresh start, magical or not?
Maybe it’s about time I also go Back to Hobart’s to sit down, pause, focus, (re)read the Harry Potter books & watch the movies 🧙 ahead of the HBO Original series Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone out this Christmas. 🤶

A year ago I finally started submitting my photos to Getty Images/IStock as Flying Fyllis — something I’d been putting off even though I’ve been shooting for years.

I started when I was too sick to travel. The downtime gave me time and inspiration to sort through my back catalogue of photos from across the globe.

Last summer I caught this shot of Nyhavn in Copenhagen. Sent it in not expecting much. It’s my favourite shot from my trip, and a high quality image.

It just ran in Harper’s Bazaar Taiwan. Which hits different because Taiwan is where I used to live — wild to have a photo of Denmark end up published in a city I once studied in, and in one of my favourite magazines.

If you’ve been sitting on your photos: submit them. You never know where they’ll land.

I’m early days into my stock & commercial travel photography journey, but it’s something I’ve been passionate about for years and I’m enjoying the journey so far.
