Photos might be special one day

"My murderer was a man from our neighbourhood. I took his photo once; he stepped out from nowhere and ruined the shot. He ruined a lot of things," Susie Salmon said in the movie The Lovely Bones which I just saw this week.

On Chinese New year Eve, I had a particularly poignant moment with my grannny. I took a photograph of her in a wheelchair and smiling. The point is...she doesn't get out of bed too much these days.

Sometimes when I make my son pose for a photograph, I'll cajole saying, "It'll be a memory" as he frowns at being made to stop and be frozen in time.

We'll never know what will become special.
