With Steve Birkinshaw at the Buxton Adventure Festival
'The runnin 'ere was just orsome' said Sim Benson, as his enthusiasm for his topic caused him to stumble off the front of the stage, almost into the laps of the front row.
The commitment and enthusiasm from some of the speakers brought to life the range of subjects they were talking about. I attended two excellent running presentations, and co-delivered another one.
Earlier in the day I had been working on the Wanderlust Travel Workshop, with Phoebe Smith and Hannah Reynolds. It was interesting to hear what Phoebe and Hannah had to say, and also to be able to contribute a small amount about my experience of getting published as a first time author.
After an impressive calzone for lunch just around the corner, we went into the afternoon's running talks. First up Nicky Spinks introduced Charlie Ramsay, who was talking about his eponymous Round of the Nevis, Grey Corries and Mamore ranges. The most interesting point on a personal level was that he put up a slide of Grant Ramsay (from my own athletic club) at one point. Recognising him, it turned out that he was Charlie's son, and that somehow I had never ever known that. Bizarre.
Next were the aforementioned Jen and Sim Benson, who were basically telling the story of their book 'Wild Running' and giving some fine examples of the places they had run. They ended by saying that they were upping sticks to take their two young children on the road for a year or so, wanting to have that freedom whilst they could. Nice move.
The last session of the weekend was the on-stage interview I was doing with Steve Birkinshaw. For some reason I was worried that there wouldn't be anyone there, but there was in fact a fabulous crowd. We had asked for comfy chairs and a drink each as we wanted to try to get away from the talking to slides format. I fired the questions and Steve responded really well, interspersed with some clips from the film of his Wainwrights in 6 days effort – which had been previewed the night beforehand. Steve tells his story well in a very understated way. If you get a chance to see/hear him (at Kendal Mountain Festival maybe) then do so, you won't be disappointed. In the short drinks break I signed a few copies of 'It's a hill, get over it', which was grand. Always nice to meet people buying your work. I also enjoyed chatting to a couple of people who had bought copies earlier.
In fact, one of the best things about a festival like Buxton is the networking that takes place. I think my talk on the book at the Sheffield Adventure Film Festival got me the interviewing job here. Several connections made here will either help me, or maybe someone else, develop ideas. The writers workshop resulted in a request from an attendee to have sight of my book synopsis and publisher contacting plan/procedure, which I happily provided. Speaking to a very notable runner there produced a request for me to read a manuscript they have had on the back burner, which I readily agreed to do. Thirdly, a random conversation with someone I met at a previous book reading of mine in the Lakes produced a lead to a rare and unpublished source that may well have some invaluable information for the book I am currently working on.
Appearing at the Buxton Adventure Festival
I am really pleased to be taking the stage at this year's Buxton Adventure Festival, on Sunday 12 October. I will be interviewing Steve Birkinshaw on stage about his recent successful Wainwrights record – all the 214 Wainwrights in the Lake District in a continuous round of 6 days. We also should have a clip from the new film of the event – 'The Set of Wainwrights' by Alistair Lee. Having interviewed Steve recently for my next book, I know he has some fascinating stories to tell of the highs and lows of that exceptional achievement. It takes out one of Joss Naylor's most revered endurance records, from back in 1986. I hope to see some of you there, and will be available to sign copies of 'It's a hill, get over it', which will be available at the festival. Tickets are available here.
Earlier on that Sunday I will also be on a Wanderlust panel discussing How to become a Travel Writer. I am uncertain I have any credentials at all for this one! I guess I have a few things to say about the process of getting published, having been through it recently, and having learnt a fair bit in a very short time in the process. Was it luck, good publisher research, an amazing manuscript, or what?! Come along and find out. The panel is myself, Phoebe Smith (Wanderlust travel editor, and author of Extreme Sleeps) and Hannah Reynolds (fitness editor for Cycling Weekly, and author of France En Velo)
The paperback version of 'It's a hill' is now out and will be available to purchase at Buxton. Although I love having the paperback, I personally still prefer the look (and feel) of the hardback version. Hardback copies are still available to buy. If you are at the Buxton Adventure Festival catch me, as I will have some hardbacks with me to sell. Amazon still have hardback copies too. Paperback copies should be in all good bookshops now. Bookends in Keswick and Reads in Grasmere have some signed copies. If you are going to fell races, particularly in Yorkshire, look out for the Third Step Books stall at many events.
A great paperback launch
The launch of the paperback version of 'It's a hill, get over it' went very well on Saturday evening. There was a good number of people there, and a good few books were signed and sold. Thanks a million to Lucy of Bookends for bringing the books (they only came a day or so beforehand) and dealing with sales of books (and tickets), and to Andy of Saddleback Cafe for use of the venue and the superb catering. After working the crowd – oh, steady on – I said a few words about the gestation of the book, my motivation for writing, and a couple of fell running stories, concluding (according to of one of my friends FB account) by saying 'some inspirational words of wisdom…run more fells and follow your creative dreams into practice – don't just dream it – do it!'.
In the afternoon I had met with Steve Birkinshaw and we had a long chat about his BGR for my next book. We were also discussing the way we are going to approach our 'double act' together at the Buxton Adventure Festival. If you want to hear the background to his amazing Wainwrights 6-day effort do come along to the session next month. It was especially good that he was able to come to the launch as well, particularly as he was competing in the Mountain Trial the next day.
I had also invited Kenny and Pauline Stuart to the launch and was SO pleased to see them there, as they had given a fabulous interview for the book, and couldn't have been more helpful to me, providing some great photos of their career highlights that are in the book as well.
The book is officially published on 18 September, but is already available online, and from good bookshops. Both Bookends shops in Keswick and Carlisle, and Sam Read in Grasmere have signed copies available so please consider using these excellent shops. It is also available at Third Step Books website and from their popup shop at fell races.
As you may have noticed in the first photo I also managed some fairly unsubtle product placement for the BGR map I have recently been working on. This is produced by Splashmaps and is a wearable/washable fabric printed map, based on OS Open Data and OpenStreetMap (data which is behind the maps in the book), showing very clearly the route details of the Bob Graham Round. It is available in good sports/book shops, or can be ordered online – use code steve8 to get a 10% discount at the checkout.
Paperback book launch details
The paperback copies of 'It's a hill, get over it' are back from the printers, ready for the publication date of 18 September. The launch for the paperback is set for Sat 13 Sept at 6-30pm. It is to be held at the Saddleback Cafe in Keswick. There will be light refreshments, a short talk from me (some fell running stories), and a chance to buy copies of the book 5 whole days before it is officially published, thanks to Bookends shop in Keswick, who are partnering with the cafe to hold this event. The event is ticketed, in order to be able to let the cafe know how many to cater for. So, pick up a ticket from either the Bookends shop (66 Main St, Keswick) or from the Saddleback Cafe (135 Main Street, Keswick).
UPDATE: you can also meet an absolute fell running legend at the event.
The paperback has been updated with details of a couple of the recent fell records, including Steve Birkinshaw's recent 6-day Wainwrights Round Record. So come along for a chat, a nibble, and a chance to be the first to get hold of the paperback of this Boardman Tasker Prize nominated book.
As with the hardback, copies of the book will be available from good book shops (including Bookends, Fred Holdsworth's, and Sam Read in the Lakes, plus the Waterstones chain and Amazon).
Advance notice: I will be interviewing Steve Birkinshaw on his Wainwright achievement on stage at the Buxton Adventure Festival in October.
Round Latrigg fell race and other Lake District activities
Went to watch the Round Latrigg fell race as it fitted in with our plans whilst in the Lake District. A reasonably low profile Keswick AC organised race held from Fitz Park on a gorgeous sunny evening – unlike some of the other days in the week. 185 entries, headed home by Ellenborough's Ricky Lightfoot in a new course record of 29-21. Was kindly allowed to take some copies of 'It's a hill, get over it' along – a few of which were snapped up by runners in the football clubhouse after the race. Good to chat with fellow running blogger Rob Morris at the event, and to meet @jonny5unt3r (who pleasingly bought a copy of the book).
Some other random things that happened in the week will be blogged on in later posts. This included having a good day in Kendal library's excellent and helpful local history section, researching for Book II, and also visiting Barrow House to look through their archive of relevant material. I also set up the launch for the paperback version of the book, with the help of Lucy at Bookends in Keswick and Andy at the Saddleback cafe.
In the surprisingly quiet Travellers Rest I had a very productive meeting with David Overton (of Splashmaps) to finalise details of our map of the Bob Graham Round, which will be available later next month in good retail outlets near you, and online at Splashmaps.
But most exciting of all was finding out that I have been nominated in a list of 41 books for the Boardman Tasker Prize for mountain literature. A massive honour just to be listed.
'The Fellrunner' and 'Compass Sport' reviews, and some thoughts on book jacket quotes
It has taken a while coming but the summer issue of The Fellrunner has a good review of 'It's a hill, get over it' in it by Graham Breeze. Because of earlier 'issues' I had thought it might not be reviewed or that it was too late [see my thoughts on 'Being reviewed and being NOT reviewed'], but it is a balanced review. After a comparison with Richard Askwith's book, he notes that 'Hill is a worthy and useful addition to the fell running literature and, with its record of detail, an excellent reference book'.
A few days later the June issue of Compass Sport (Britain's National Orienteering Magazine) arrived, which has a great review by editor (and sometime fellrunner) Nick Barrable in it. After noting it 'should probably adorn all fell runners' bookshelves', he concludes the review with the comment: 'Overall, a fine choice for any runners' library'. [Click the image for the full review]
That second quote looks like making it on to the cover of the paperback when it comes out. I am working with Sandstone Press on choosing which quotes are best. Is it really the best quotes, or the 'most famous' that should be used? Which neatly leads me to a link to a piece in The Guardian yesterday by Nathan Filer (winner of the 2013 Costa Book of the Year). In an article entitled 'Why you should ignore the superlatives on book jackets' he reveals how they often happen through friends doing each other 'favours'. [Disclaimer: I know Nick B a little]
The Bill Rollinson Prize for Landscape and Tradition
I had a brilliant day attending the 2014 Lakeland Book of the Year Awards yesterday. It was held in a huge marquee in the beautiful grounds of the Inn on the Lake in Glenridding. Mike and I drove over from Staveley on a glorious sunny day. Bucks Fizz in the Orangery started proceedings before we had a fabulous luncheon, and for me a 'calming' pint of Marston's EPA. Then came the real action. The mainman Hunter Davies said a few humorous words of background, and introduced fellow judges Fiona Armstrong and Eric Robson. The awards were in 5 categories, with 15 shortlisted altogether. What the authors didn't know was what category they were in, but it turned out that it was neatly arranged that there a shortlist of three books per category. One couldn't help thinking that the odds on a category win were shortening, but that was dangerous thinking, and could lead to unnecessary disappointment. The table I was on had 3 shortlisted authors on it, all in different categories. Weirdly, we had spotted a pile of books on the judges' table, and thought 'surely the winners aren't there on show'. Initial excitement as I squinted, then disappointment as I couldn't see a distinctly thick green-wrapped tome. OK, relax and be ready to applaud others.
Then, the judges went through each category in turn. The three 'contender' books were introduced with some apt summaries (and/or were quoted from) to set the scene, and then one of the event sponsors was called forward to open the envelope and announce the category winner. The first category was The Striding Edge Prize for Guides and Places, which went to Stuart Miller's Canoe & Kayak Guide to North West England – who was on our table. Then came the Zeffirellis Prize for People and Business category, which was won by Undressed For Dinner, which charts how Simon Temple-Bennett and his wife turned their home into an internationally-renowned hotel. They were also sitting at my table, so expectations were becoming low indeed – what chance, etc. My category was last [I think, the day became a blur around here] and was the Bill Rollinson Prize for Landscape and Tradition. By now it was obvious that the judges actually had seperate piles for each category, so hope was not all lost. Fiona Armstrong started the category off by saying some very nice things about my book, how she wasn't especially interested in running [she is actually a fisherperson, if there is such a word] but had been captivated as she read through the book. She extracted the story of Malcolm 'Bighead' Canmore choosing his messengers on the basis of their performance in a specially arranged fell race (this was in 1064, see p27) as her 'sample'. Then the reasons why the other two books had been shortlisted, and a few honourable mentions for near misses.
The pause before the sponsor revealed the name after opening the envelope seem interminable, but he said 'Steve ….' and I felt a bit like the crowd must have felt when McWhirter said '3 minutes …' when announcing the result of Roger Bannister's sub-4 mile [OK, that is stretching it a bit, but you get my drift]. I think I might have hugged Mike as I went up to be presented, and certainly thrust my mobile phone into his hand with the implied suggestion that he might record the moment.
All winners were asked if they wanted to say a few words, and I did – no surprise there. I must admit to having thought about whether to have a little speech ready but forced myself not to. So I mumbled something about being a writer and feeling that I should be able to say something appropriate as it came to me. As Keith Richardson was in the audience I told a short anecdote about how I really wanted to write a biog of Joss, but that he got there first and so I had to move to a wider subject. Then I think it was thanks for the recognition for the book, and encouragement to others to go down the interesting path of writing about whatever they were passionate about. I sat down and shook hands round the table. I believe I may have called out 'top table' across to the other 2 winners in our group. Then Hunter Davies went through the overall winner shortlist (of 4), before announcing that Simon's Undressed for Dinner had won.
The formal bit over we posed for pictures with the judges and relaxed. I had a great chat with Rebecca Robinson, who was on our table. She runs for Kendal AC and is an excellent fell runner, with marathon ambitions. Impressively she had just run up and down Helvellyn whilst waiting for the event to start. The picture shows me having a chat with her, and also with Keith Richardson with whom I discussed writery/Naylory stuff.
But the best of all was being introduced to one of my heroes. Himalayan (and big wall) climber Doug Scott was there as a paying guest and he was highly amused by the story (which appears in the book) I told him of being asked if I was him in a pub once and saying 'yes' for some strange reason (I may have already had a drink) – and then being plied with more drinks all night as a result by someone thinking I was famous.
A fabulous event, and for me a fantastic feeling of achievement and pleasure at being an 'award winning author'.

Whenever you detect the mysterious smell of lavender in a house, it means a friendly spirit is passing through one of the nearby rooms. The fragrance has to come out of nowhere, I'm told, and it has to be strong. Otherwise, your mind is just playing tricks on you.
And if you see pennies lying around on tables and windowsills, that means the spirits have "been visiting" while you were out. Again, nothing to be alarmed over; just some of the everyday goings on in a world deeply infused with things from well beyond it.
All of this knowledge comes to me by way of a lady who's worked for my family ever since I was a boy—call her May Iris—and has lived in the very same place since she was a girl. She knows all kinds of things like that, full of a wisdom that's being lost at a rate too clichéd to remark upon.
For instance, she can distinguish, to the day, between blackberry winter, locust winter, and dogwood winter (in the South, important parts of spring; there's a mesmerizing story by Robert Penn Warren called "Blackberry Winter"). [Read more...]

Difficult one! Beverley and Bettie I honestly don't know how you would combine them to make a new name...!
Beatrice - has the length of Beverley and includes the 't' of Bettie
Bethany - has similar start of 'Bev' 'Beth' including similar ending of Bettie
Bevie - has the nickname quality of Bettie and is a variant of Beverley
Babette - has the length of Beverley and has the 'ett' sound of Bettie.
Bea - as obviously both names start with 'b' sorry running out of ideas
You could use names beginning with B:
Or you could use variants of the names to make a new combination. For example 'Bettie' is a nickname variant of Elizabeth. Obviously Beverley is a name in her own right. But the name is closely linked to the more modern Waverley as they have a similar sound. Due to this you could combine both Elizabeth and Waverley to make a very pretty more up to date combination that links to your Grandma's. I like the idea of Elizabeth Waverley!!
Anyway hope this was of some help.

After closing in July 2009, the AMC Loews College Park 14 in Indianapolis, Indiana is now going to greet moviegoers once again, but with a new owner and the new name of The Movie Buff Theatre.
Opening day is scheduled for this Friday, April 29, 2011, and the Indianapolis Business Journal interviewed the new owner, Leigh Friedman:
Still, Friedman, 57, is confident a market remains for another theater in the area. He plans to open his Movie Buff Theatre April 29 with about five first-run films and ramp up until all 14 screens in the building are operating. A few independent films likely will be shown, as well.
"I think [AMC] didn't want to cannibalize their own theater," he said of the Traders Point location. "This was the weaker one, so they closed it. That being said, I still think there's an opportunity."

Anatomy of a Mudslide
They've killed thousands in the last decade, and they're only going to get worse.
Caused by heavy rain or sudden thaws, mudslides occur when dense, supersaturated soil can no longer hold its ground and sluices downhill. And with complicating factors like warmer climates, poor construction, and deforestation, we're only making them worse.

I knew one software company that failed their SaaS transition because they chose to cut a few corners with the operations. Since they were software engineers, they did not really want to spend time on such mundane tasks as security, auditing, backups and so on. One day they let a disgruntled employee go, the guy went to an internet cafe, logged into the hosting account with the shared admin credentials, and deleted all customer data.
There were no backups or data replicas to bring the data back, no personal admin accounts or procedures to prevent such an incident from happening, and even no monitoring to learn about the issue before customers did. This was the end of this SaaS application – it just never recovered.
Cloud business is more than just putting some code online (and collecting money ;)) Whether you are offering Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) web application, Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) or Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) – what you are offering is more than just your code – it is your service.
Even if you do not offer a formal service level agreement (SLA) and have a statement in your Terms of Service that you are not liable for anything, your online application or platform is still a service so your customers expect it to be reliable and secure.
At our recent WSO2Con, Chamith Kumarage delivered an excellent session on how our Cloud DevOps team works. If you are delivering a service online (or considering doing so) – make sure to watch the recording (quick registration required).
Here's my quick summary of Chamith's advice:
1. Automate everything: repetitive tasks not only are inefficient and mundane, and eat your time. When done manually they are unreliable. Humans tend to do things slightly differently each time they do them, or not do them at all.
2. Tasks are really parts of processes: when you come up with something that needs to be done, ask yourself what is the process flow for this task? For example, a data backup is really a part of a process that includes:
- Scheduled (e.g. at 1 a.m. every day) script which creates a backup,
- Some sort of monitoring system which verifies that the script ran and the backup got created,
- Notifications on failures and procedures that need to be followed in not,
- Backup testing: automated and/or regular manual recovery drills (if manual then documented and performed by different team members).
3. Design for failure: everything will be failing so make sure that your system can sustain the failures. For example, if your system uses multiple virtual machines in the cloud, keep running a "chaos monkey" script which keeps randomly killing the instances and automated tests which ensure that these instance failures do not affect the overall system (by the way, see how Netflix does that.)
4. Self-healing and success verification are critical for all tasks. Any task and operation can fail (see above) so the system should not get "surprised" but should always automatically validate the action results and if something didn't go right – implement the healing procedures (start new instances, retry, and so on).
5. Enforce discipline, processes, automation, checklists. Document everything. This will make your processes repeatable and reliable.
"Bus monkey test" (related to the above) if one of your team members gets hit by a bus – all operations should keep working: everything needs to be documented and tried by other team members. (* This is a mental experiment – do not actually hit your team-members by busses :))
6. Monitoring and analytics: the key is not to collect and show tons of data and alerts, but be able to quickly detect abnormal behavior.
7. Communications: your dashboards should quickly and clearly give you the big picture and relevant details. Key metrics and system state should be something that everyone sees and understands, effective drill-downs should make it easy to understand and fix stuff.
8. Agile delivery: waterfall processes in the cloud are bad and stressful.The smaller the changes and the more often and in more automated fashion they are – the more mundane they become: which lowers the risks and improves the skills and reliability. Cloud and big-bang releases do not go well together.
9. Use standard tools and native systems of underlying platforms – do not reinvent the wheels. For example, if the platform gives you SQL-as-a-service (Amazon RDS, Azure SQL and so on) – use those and not your own MySQL running on a virtual machine.
10. Post-mortem analysis is a must. If something did get wrong after all, you need a formal investigation process:
- What happened?
- Why and what needs to be done to prevent this in the future?
- If automated monitoring didn't catch it, why and what needs to be done to prevent this in the future?
- If validation and self-healing didn't catch it, why and what needs to be done to prevent this?

High-performing enterprise Software Quality Assurance (SQA) teams validate systems that are ready for use - getting most actively involved as components integrate and form complete systems. These teams catch and report on defects, making sure the customer gets the best software possible.

Does the emergence of DevOps mean the end of Enterprise SQA? Does the SQA function become redundant? In her session at DevOps Summit, Anne Hungat...

The term culture has had a polarizing effect among DevOps supporters. Some propose that culture change is critical for success with DevOps, but are remiss to define culture. Some talk about a DevOps culture but then reference activities that could lead to culture change and there are those that talk about culture change as a set of behaviors that need to be adopted by those in IT. There is no question that businesses successful in adopting a DevOps mindset have seen departmental culture change, the question remains, is culture the leading edge of this change? I posit that in large enterprises,...

Our expectations for buying all sorts of consumer goods has gone through a radical transformation we now take for granted. Why should we not expect this same level of service from IT businesses? We accept the status quo for how software delivery exists today but would reject it without hesitation if it were applied to pretty much any other online consumer experience. Take pizza delivery as an example. Fifteen years ago ordering a pizza meant trying to choose an item from a grease-stained menu somebody shoved under your door.

Docker offers a new, lightweight approach to application portability. Applications are shipped using a common container format and managed with a high-level API. Their processes run within isolated namespaces that abstract the operating environment independently of the distribution, versions, network setup, and other details of this environment. This "containerization" has often been nicknamed "the new virtualization." But containers are more than lightweight virtual machines. Beyond their smaller footprint, shorter boot times, and higher consolidation factors, they also bring a lot of new fea...

The move in recent years to cloud computing services and architectures has added significant pace to the application development and deployment environment. When enterprise IT can spin up large computing instances in just minutes, developers can also design and deploy in small time frames that were unimaginable a few years ago. The consequent move toward lean, agile, and fast development leads to the need for the development and operations sides to work very closely together. Thus, DevOps becomes essential for any ambitious enterprise today.

At first glance, it might seem that the goals of DevOps and regulatory compliance are inherently at odds. Whereas much of the buzz around DevOps advocates delivering software at dizzying rates, compliance and security are concerned with proper oversight of the change management process to ensure that the enterprise isn't opening itself up to potential vulnerabilities. With the tedious amount of rules and regulations that enterprises are subjected to, compliance can end up being a governor on the release process, defeating the potential benefits from adopting DevOps practices.

There are a couple ways to look at DevOps: first, DevOps is a development methodology based on continuous integration and continuous delivery supported by set of configuration management tools such as Chef, Puppet, Salt and Ansible.

Roger: Could you explain for our audience the significance of containerization, and how it differs from virtualization? Ben: Traditional virtualization was created over a decade ago, when applications were long-lived, monolithic, and deployed to a single server. In this world, when the problem to be solved was proliferation of single purpose physical servers – e.g. one server for Microsoft exchange, one server for Mac Print, one server for a custom Unix inventory -- it made sense to turn all of those single-purpose physical servers into single purpose virtual servers. The VM was created, whi...

Orphaned Baby Rhino Finds Love With A Sheepby Laurie Kay Olson
Back in May staffers from the Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre in South Africa found a baby rhinoceros crying next to its mother that had been killed by poachers just for her horn.

Part way through the trip it was discovered that Buddy was riding on the back of the ambulance to stay with his human.

This Naked Cockatoo Really Rocksby Laurie Kay Olson
Cockatoos are a popular bird to have as a pet, though they are not the talkers that regular parrots are. They can still be genial pets, though they can be given to tearing out their feathers when faced with psychological challenges. That is what happened to Ophelia (a.k.a. King O) after his owner died. Despite his startling appearance he can really rock out.

Tricia And Sweety Prove That Love Is Blindby Laurie Kay Olson
The life of a dairy cow on those large commercial dairy farms is not a happy one. It is certainly not the pastoral scene of cows gently grazing the grasses of pastures. It is life standing on concrete and being repeatedly impregnated and giving birth until it is time to head for the slaughterhouse. But sometimes someone steps in and creates a happy ending for a cow here and there.

Polixeni Papapetrou
|This biographical article is written like a résumé. (December 2013)
Polixeni Papapetrou (born 1960) is a female photographer from Melbourne, Australia noted for her themed photo series about people's identities. Photo series she has made include Elvis Presley fans, Marilyn Monroe impersonators, drag queens, wrestlers and bodybuilders and the recreation of a photograph of Beatrice Hatch made by Lewis Carroll using her daughter as a model.[1][2][3][4]
Papapetrou has gained international recognition for her thoughtful photographs that contemplate the age of childhood and the childhood imagination. In 2002 she began an intimate[5][6][7][8][9] photographic collaboration with her daughter Olympia Nelson (born 1997) and her son Solomon Nelson (born 1999) and their friends. Papapetrou began making pictures about childhood because she wanted to communicate ideas about our culture that are best expressed through the symbol of the child, but more importantly, she is fascinated by the world of childhood.
Papapetrou engages part reality, part fantasy moving through the mysterious landscape of her home country, using the rich terrain as a backdrop for narratives about the transitional space of childhood. Series about childhood include 'Phantomwise' (2002; 'Haunted Country' (2006), 'Games of Consequence' (2008), 'Between Worlds' (2009); 'The Dreamkeepers' (2012) and 'The Ghillies' (2013). In 2006, Papapetrou moved her work from the realm of fantasy into the natural world. This was a natural as the children were now moving beyond the home into the freedom of the world beyond. Haunted Country (2006) was inspired by nineteenth century real and fictional accounts of children who went missing in the Australian bush. To make these photographs, Papapetrou went to the sites of the most notorious disappearances in Victoria, Australia including the Wimmera, Daylesford, Victoria and Hanging Rock, Victoria, where she staged scenes proposing what the physical and psychological circumstances may have been like for these lost and wandering children. It is the awkward evolution of youth that informs the in‐between spaces she creates in 'Between Worlds (2009)', 'The Dreamkeepers' (2012) and 'The Ghillies (2013)'. In unreal theatrical guises, the children emerge enigmatically; they are present but their child identity recedes: new archetypes emerge as apparitions that speak to us about transformation and self-realizing periods in our lives. Papapetrou's work reflects her continuing interest in metaphors for portraying transitional stages in life. She creates spaces of transformation that the child actors inhabit: a constructed theatrical world, a space of an almost unreality to parallel the liminal period of the children's lives. Papapetrou trained as a lawyer, graduating with a BA/LLB from the University of Melbourne in 1984. In 1997 she graduated with a Master of Arts, (Media Arts) from RMIT University, Melbourne and in 2007 with a PhD from Monash University, Melbourne.
She has held over 50 solo exhibitions and participated in over 80 group exhibitions throughout Australia, Asia, Europe and the United States. In 2013 the Centre for Contemporary Photography, Melbourne held a survey of her work spanning 20 years of practice and a retrospective was held at the Australian Centre for Photography, Sydney in 2011. Papapetrou has exhibited at major international photographic festivals. Selected grants and awards include Australia Council New Work Grant, 2012, 2009, 2007, 2005, 2000; Arts Victoria, International Touring Grant, 2010; 2007; Arts Victoria Professional Development Grant, 2002; Australian Post-Graduate Research Award, 2002-2005. Recipient of the Josephine Ulrick & Win Schubert Photography Award (2009). Her work appears in over 200 articles, citations and essays. Papapetrou's work is held in public collections including National Gallery of Australia, Canberra; National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne; Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney; Bendigo Art Gallery; Edith Cowan University, Perth; Geelong Art Gallery; Monash Gallery of Art; Gippsland Art Gallery; Gold Coast City Art Gallery, Queensland; The Arts Centre, Melbourne; Albury Regional Art Gallery, New South Wales; Artbank, Australia; RMIT University, Melbourne; Trinity College, The University of Melbourne; Edith Cowan University, Perth; Murdoch University, Perth; Museum of Fine Arts, St. Petersburg, Florida.[10]
