By Ashley Lily Scarlett and Richard Guest
Since 20th December 2014, Ashley Lily Scarlett (in Sydney, Australia) and Richard Guest (in London, UK) have been having a conversation in pictures. They each take it in turn to post an image as a response to the other’s previous post. There is no set schedule; the blog follows the rhythm of a conversation. Some days there is nothing new, on others a flurry of questions, answers, jokes, and echoes, back and forth, on and on until…
Here is part of their dialogue.

Fun. I like the development and the photo dialogue. It’s like a game I play with my English students called “association”. Oner person says a word, and the next person says a related word: fish, chips, chisel, hammer, nail, manicure, massage, wrestling, acting… So here we have picture association. Sometimes it’s the subject, like a foot, sometimes it’s the composition, like a strong diagonal line, and sometimes it’s a shape, like a dot.

They both individually and in collaboration have used photography and the medium of blogging to find a unique expression of the human condition. Wondrous visions. 🙂
