People on a pier, one is throwing a fishing cage of some kind (crab pot?) into the water. At a marina.

Glass-like Depths

The wildebeest wades through
The glassy waters’ blue,
Its modest passage due.

Its progress: ripples spread
Beneath an azure dead,
To where the banks are led.

Reflections of a waterfall, and yes the pool really was this colour. Slovenia 2025.

A quiet lake, ringed by forest. A boat heads out in the early morning. Low clouds obscure the mountains behind. Scattered buildings and docks on the lakeshore.

This will probably be the last 'skeleton shot' I'll get of my favourite tree in Bushy Park this season, as it will soon be in full leaf again.

A snow-covered pointy mountain is reflected on a black sand beach which is mostly covered in water/wet sand that is very reflective. There is a small patch of the black sand in the middle, which looks brown in the sun. Above is blue sky and to the left there is some sea fog/sun glow.

On the same beach there were some melted snow patches on the black sand which gave nice reflections of the Mælifell mountain.

This is a dark lane with the facades of buildings painted ochre. Two people are walking away from the camera through a sunbeam.

Oxford Canal This one was started while we were up in Edinburgh recently, which does feel slightly daft given the subject is a quiet stretch of canal in Warwickshire. It’s loosely based on an oil painting I saw by John Lines of a bridge near Hilmorton Locks—one of those scenes that looks straightforward enough until you actually try to paint it. What appealed was the simple structure of it: the bridge, the towpath, and that gentle canal rhythm. Nothing too dramatic, which is often where the difficulty creeps in. There’s not much to hide behind, so it all has to hang together.

Diese Schwarz-Weiß-Fotografie zeigt einen älteren Mann mit hellem Haar, der im Schneidersitz auf dem flachen Rand eines großen, runden Brunnens sitzt. Er blickt ruhig in die Kamera und hält eine Pfeife im Mund, während neben ihm eine dunkle Reisetasche steht. Der Brunnen im Hintergrund ist mit kunstvollen, floral gemusterten Kacheln verkleidet. Aus dem Brunnen ragen mehrere metallene, pilzartige Skulpturen empor, von denen Wasser in feinen Schleiern herabfällt. Die Szene ist an einem belebten städtischen Platz aufgenommen, was durch die angedeuteten Gebäude und Bäume im Hintergrund deutlich wird. Das helle Tageslicht lässt das fließende Wasser glitzern und erzeugt eine entspannte, fast zeitlose Atmosphäre inmitten des urbanen Treibens.
