It’s time to have a beer or two and meet some of the other people currently viewing the visual world as a series of photo opportunities. speaking for myself, I’m in a sort of exhausted, post-jaded state where I seem to have taken all the photographs I know how to take. I’m now approaching some sort of other-state where I take the photograph because it wants me to take it, rather than the other way around. I think my recent pictures are unexciting, really, but they exist now, and I’m waiting for one of them to tell me something, so I keep taking them.

Maybe I’ll learn something tonight?

I was over in Compton Martin on Nov 5th to have hot Chestnut soup, smoke and fireworks. Horrendous bus journey, but worth it for the panoramic view of dozens of different folks’ firework shows going off all at once.

Note the tiffin canisters and the cameras lying around all over the place. The original photographer of most of these pictures was (we think) the man on the right, whose Jack Russell dog (also pictured) the sharp eye can pick out roaming the mountain landscape in several shots.
