In the wee hours I'll meet you
Down by Dun Ringill
Oh, and we'll watch the old gods play
By Dun Ringill
We'll wait in stone circles
'Till the force comes through
Lines joint in faint discord
And the storm watch brews
A concert of kings
As the white sea snaps
At the heels of a soft prayer
Whispered
.

Trasforma il prato in un oggetto artistico, evocando l'immagine di un pittore che stende i colori.
Come un pittore mescola i colori sulla sua tavolozza prima di dipingere, la natura posiziona fiori (rossi, gialli, bianchi, blu) sopra il verde dell'erba, creando un'opera d'arte vivente e tridimensionale.
"Between the idea
and the reality
between the motion
and the act
falls the Shadow.
Between the conception
and the creation
between the emotion
and the response
falls the Shadow.
life is very long."
T.S. E.
life is very long, when you are lonely (added Morrissey, some time later).
I write this with a heavy heart. The last couple of years have found me with a progressively debilitating spinal column and joint problems. If it were just me, I would never ask, but I have 2 young daughters that look to me for support, so I have to swallow my pride...
If you are in a position to help, I have setup an account to accept donations, even as small as the price of a coffee. Or, I also have PayPal. Anything would be greatly appreciated. See my "About" page on Flickr for the link. Thank you.

This is a landscape version of my square photo called 'Simple Abstract 75'.
This image is looking up at balconies of Wardian London, one of two similar towers in Canary Wharf, East London, using intentional camera movement. The architects are Glenn Howells.
I like to think this photo has the feel of a scientific abstract image taken by the great photographer Berenice Abbott (1898 to 1991).
Sprinkenhof is a part of the Kontorhaus district’s group of buildings located in central Hamburg.

Designed by brothers Hans and Oskar Gerson and Fritz Höger, Sprinkenhof was built between 1929 and 1943.

Looking up at a recently built structure, St James's Market, Central London. Architects: Make Architects. This development was RIBA London Award winner in 2018.
There's a certain Slant of light,
Winter Afternoons --
That oppresses, like the Heft
Of Cathedral Tunes --
Heavenly Hurt, it gives us --
We can find no scar,
But internal difference,
Where the Meanings, are --
None may teach it -- Any --
'Tis the Seal Despair --
An imperial affliction
Sent us of the Air --
When it comes, the Landscape listens --
Shadows -- hold their breath --
When it goes, 'tis like the Distance
On the look of Death –
Emily Dickinson, poem 258
Squint a little and you'll understand immediately what Jackson Pollock's abstract expressionist paintings were all about. Art mirrors nature even in its more abstract sense.
"The only real failure is the failure to try, and the measure of success is how we cope with disappointment”

Another detail shot of Manchester's Hexagon Tower.
Completed in 1973 for ICI.
For 50 years this Brutalist building’s facade was of concrete. The facade was over-clad with insulated aluminium rainscreen in 2023/2024, retaining the hexagonal shape of the original structure’s windows.
The 14-storey tower was named after the hexagon shaped windows based on the chemical compound Benzene, which is widely used in the creation of synthetic dyes.
Original architect was Richard Seifert.
Photo taken in April 2025.
