1897 – Photography
I have been giving my photography and approach to the subject some serious thought of late. There is (in my eyes) a slight technical problem – I know a poor worker will blame his tools, and I’m not blaming the tool, I’m blaming my ability to use them correctly. The issue I have with myContinue reading “1897 – Photography”
1894 Today, should have been then.
Today turned out to be what i had really hoped and expected a routine Monday to look and feel like. A had to go and pick up a prescription, but then walked up to The Shed.

1885 – A morning out
There are times that I need to stop thinking. of Saturday and Sunday as the end of the week, in some respects what day of the week it is becomes irrelevant. Why is that an issue?

1660 – I visit Waterstones in Portsmouth
Elayne said she likes this picture because it has the four tower blocks and The Trinity Church Tower. I hadn’t really planned anything particular for the day other than I wanted to walk in to town.

354/366 Litter in Art
It appears that there are quite a few artists that use litter in art. They will take it away to their studio and do something with it that turns it in to art. There have been three occasions over recent weeks where I have seen something that I have photographed, here are the other two;Continue reading “354/366 Litter in Art”
307/366 Which Napoleon?
In 305, I wrote about my trip out to the Alver Valley. I had every intention of going on to Fort Gilkicker, but didn’t get there because I decided my feet had had enough for the day (they had served me well). Whilst I was walking away from the Motte & Bailey, I asked SiriContinue reading “307/366 Which Napoleon?”
