This short walk was made in to parts on the spur of the moment with my old iPhone 3!
The blurred movement in the images reflects something of the feeling I had whilst out on an evening walk and finding myself in need of something to eat due to a low blood sugar level. As a diabetic of many years, I am familiar with the symptoms and using my phone in this way this seemed like a good idea to show something of the effect a low blood sugar can have – a bit like being drunk and having the munchies at the same time. Symptoms can vary quite a lot for individual diabetics and I am lucky always to have been able to recognize the onset of a “hypo” (hypoglaecemic reation).
These were fascinating – an insight into what happens when low blood sugar is going on – I liked the juxtaposition of the blurred, fast images, and the slower, easier ones.
Thanks Jane – I thought I was going to be able to throw this together in a couple of minutes but I ended up spending a good chunk of the day on it yesterday.
