    Night Sail & Black Hope: Last of the River Part 1

    Sail away. sail away, sail away! These are the penultimate batch of river images, I have decided to avoid the river as a subject for the foreseeable future, and so there won’t be many more for a long time. This is because of the lockdown when we were told to take only short exercise and…

    On The Promenade

    Sounds like a film ‘On The Promenade’ – an arty French black and white flick, bit like ‘On The Waterfront’ but more, well, French.
