@dafyddjonesphotographer has been capturing images of the Cambridge May Balls since the ‘80s. Next week, he’s publishing them in a book. Read all about it in this weekend’s @fthtsi 💐✨
It is #Nowruz today, the Persian New Year which coincides with the Spring Equinox. Thinking of my gorgeous Granny 🕊️ and all the people of Iran. Let there be light and an end to this madness. Everywhere. ✨
As an editor at HTSI and a visual researcher, Inès’s eye was shaped long before working at a magazine. Summers in California, spent with her photographer godfather and painter godbrother, taught her how to see. One captured the world; the other reconstructed it. Between them, she absorbed composition, colour and learned how to observe.

Inès’s visual referencing began accidentally, a private stash of images and people that caught her imagination. She shared them on Instagram. People responded. What emerged is an online nook of thought provoking and refreshing visuals.
Her edit for SALON extends that instinct: an eclectic “higgledy-piggledy” collection of objects that come together to form a coherent space to retreat to. There’s no heavy explanation. Just a sharp eye and a willingness to place things side by side.
