Day 414 – September 27, 2015
I was only able to take a photograph on the first day of week 60. One photograph to keep this project going in a marginal form. The pain was, and still is, intense. Thankfully due to medication the pain is bearable. According to my doctor it looks like a hernia, so I need to rest and avoid sitting as much as possible.
Hopefully next week a few new photographs.
All photographs by Wouter Brandsma
good portrait, get well soon!
That portrait came from deep Vincent. Thanks.
Wouter, how about some photos of your sick bed room ceiling? One showing the light, each hour… could be “art”!
Never thought of that Jamie. Took photographs of my ceiling though when I broke my back in 2010.
what happened? r u ok? You still using Ricoh? I am. best Yul >
I have some serious back pain that reminds the doctor of hernia. I’m still using the GR most of the times and a Fuji X100 on some ocassions. You take care too Yul.
Get well soon, Wouter
Thank you Michael.
oh wow, you in such pain and from within a laugh still there…Hope you heal soon xxx
I can laugh now, but not when I took that image. Thank you Paula.
A powerful shot Wouter, in spite the circumstances… Wish you a quick recovery.
Thank you António!
I really enjoy this portrait, even though it makes me a bit uncomfortable. But I like that it makes me feel.
That is it Sonya, that is it.
What a fantastic photographer!!
Feeling humbled.
With your absence on Flickr I forget how much I enjoyed your work even if it often is unsettling. However, I did not expect to find you in pain. I do remember your broken back. The use of term hernia is slightly misleading as it does not necessarily mean ‘just’ a herniated disk. In fact I am on a waiting list to have my umbilical hernia operated on. It causes no issues but prevention is recommended.
I wish you a speedy recovery.
I miss the “old” days on Flickr, Geza. I loved witnessing the progress. My work sometimes edged on the more darker side of me, possibly finding a way to deal with both sides of me.
It was already 5 years ago that I broke my back, but I had back problems now for over 14 years. It was manageable for 9 years, but the last 5 years it got a lot worser. I personally hope that I will get operated too to prevent further problems.
Thank you Geza and I hope the waiting list won’t be too long.
