Hannah

Hannah is one of the most beautiful women I've ever met. Goodness, honesty and grace just shine out of her. In all the years that I've known her, however, from working together at a radical magazine in the 90s, we've both been terribly busy! Always too busy really to get to know each other which is such a shame. I was so pleased today when I got a very unexpected last-minute invite to go to a classical concert with her. I have to say, it sounded a lot more civilised than standing around in a muddy field watching people set fire to things. We had a lovely evening & as she was leaving I asked if I could photograph her, despite the terrible light, because the hat she was wearing somehow set off her face so well. I hope at some point I'll get the opportunity to take this one again properly, in good light. I also hope we'll get the chance to properly become friends. We forget how some of the people we really like can sometimes drift to the periphery of our lives.
