My 2026 100 Days Project aims to identify places, objects, people
and events from the past demonstrating our evolvement over the
years.
My focus will be on 'vintage' rather than historical
shaping the story of our community, its resilience, and tradition.
Over time, this visual archive will become more than a collection of
images - it will stand as a testament to the enduring charm,
challenges, and connections that define this place and its people
and our connections with the past.
