– Then and Now, 2016 –
On 20th December 2014, Ashley Lily Scarlett and I started a conversation in pictures called Between Scarlett and Guest. Ashley is based in Sydney, Australia and I’m in Beckenham, UK – we have never met. But we trade pictures on an a sometimes daily basis.
Below is my side of the conversation from 11th September 2016 to 3rd February 2017. It incorporates archive images and those taken specifically in response to one of Ashley’s shots.
You can start “reading” Between Scarlett and Guest from any point (and read backwards or forwards) and it should still make some kind of sense.

David Cook and I are reviewing each other’s record collections one disc at a time on a new blog called Zzzounds! David has just reviewed The Seer by Swans. Check it out!

The Future Is Papier Mâché 
Nice to see yours all together like this, my friend.
Thanks very much, Ashley – I liked your collection so much, I thought I’d rip you off 🙂
Haha! You’re not ripping me off!
I always enjoy your exchanges!
Thanks so much, Sue! Really glad you do – I do too.
Still enjoying this thread, Richard! 🙂
Glad to hear that, Richard! Thanks! 🙂
It is an amazing creative use of social media & the blogging platform. Elements of word association and jazz improvisation expressed through the use of photography.
Thanks so much, Joseph – really appreciate this!
Beautiful! These are so strong – I love seeing them together.
Thanks very much, Karen. Much appreciated. I love working with Ashley, so there’s an element of fun to it.
Excellent recap.
The photos are so good…!
Thanks very much, Rabirius! Very much appreciated.
Well done…
Thanks very much, Sally.
Great series of shots and images. It must be quite challenging to keep coming up with responses to forward the dialogue, so hats off for that.
Thanks very much, Stevie – yes, it’s an interesting challenge for sure 🙂
they look great together like this!
Thanks very much, Emily! I’m wondering if Ashley and I could do a joint round-up sometime, so that you can only see the images.
I absolutely adore this conversation/collaboration. I have little time to blog and keep up with the blogging world, but I always make time for your marvelous pairing.
Thanks so much, Elena – that really means a lot! Thank you.
Very creative and striking collection of images, Richard. Beautifully done.
Thanks very much, Jane. Much appreciated.
Well done Richard and Ashley, am in awe of how you keep this conversation going!
Thanks very much, Patti! Yes, it’s great fun.
:O a collaborative project !
Yes, indeed! A really fun one.
Great project between you two. It’s good to see them together like this. I reckon you’d like ervinjanek.com. He is my husband (disclosure!)
