Photography with an occasional poem

  • Watch it!

    Nope, my mistake, I meant Watchett. Watchett is a small harbour town on the Somerset coast, on the edge of Exmoor. It has a lighthouse, so that is good enough for me. Compositionally I guess this photo is inverted to the rules, with the lighthouse being a minor player in the scene, but I am defending the decision by saying the two mooring points create a leading line. Well, that is my excuse.


  • Thinking

    What’s it all about?
    I’ll just sit here and ponder
    the meaning of life.

    This fine young man was found in the Museum of Somerset in Taunton, just sat still, quietly thinking. Well, not really. Clearly he is made of stone. Or fibreglass, I can’t remember. Anyway, he kept still for his photo, which is all that counts.
