    Anti War Demonstrations 2004

    anti war demonstrations 2004


    In 2004 Australia was being drawn into the war in Iraq. A lot of Australians were opposed to the war, but the politicians wouldn't listen.

    On a nice sunny day several hundred thousand people gathered around Hyde park in the middle of the city to demonstrate and express their opinions against Australia entering into the war.

    I was of the belief that the war was a mistake in the first place and was totally unjustified, so I was decided to join the demonstrations and at the same time see if I could take a few photos.

    mia is born


    Andy and Tink had their first baby...a little (and very hairy) girl names Mia.

    This was also one of those periods where I was checking out what it would be like to have a beard.

    thailand


    I celebrated Christmas and New Year with my parents in Thailand.

    We spent the time in the Northern Part of Thailand in the Golden Triangle around Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai.

    We rented a car for a couple of days and got to see a lot including all the hill tribes that still to this day live in this part of Thailand.

    My brothers funeral

    1. November 2002 11:19 by Rene Pallesen | 0 Comments

    my brothers funeral


    My brother passed away in the end of 2002. He had been suffering badly from his disease for almost a decade and eventually it got the better of him.

    I still miss him a lot even though we weren't close when he was alive....but I still feel him close to me to this day!



    I still light a candle for him once in a while.



    His two biggest wishes in life was to become a professional tennis player...he was a pretty damn good player and I never played against him because I didn't have a chance.



    His second biggest wish was to get himself a girlfriend. This is one of the last photos that was taken of him.



    I still blame the psychiatric system in Denmark for what happened. They were too focused on treating his disease with medication and never paid any attention on teaching him to live with his disease and provide quality in life.


    I still love him very much and I really miss him. I also regret that I wasn't there more for him.



    He always looked after me and he has never hurt anyone.





    This is the last family photo that was taken.



    I would appreciate if you click here to see some of the photos from my brothers life: May he not be forgotten
