Reprieve

As I've said before, I am drawn to contrasts. So when I wrote about "the first" portrait in my series, at the same time, I wasn't writing about the very real possibility of leaving our home here in the City to move north for a job. In hindsight, the first portrait could very well have been my last.

But I've been granted a reprieve - a job that will allow me to stay here at least for a few more months. So, I'm getting on this next train and seeing where it leads.
