Just to let bloggers know that Jeff's on fire - and we might even get an exclusive preview of the first three chapters of his new book. Did you know he'd got one coming out? Why hadn't he mentioned it before?
(By the way, I greatly enjoyed my walk, amid some of the finest and most numerous veteran oaks in England. I am mildly obsessed just now with early spring sunlight on tree trunks - an ultralucid PreRaphaelite light. That digital camera of mine has photographed little else.)

A blog about, among other things, imaginary ideas - What ifs? and Imagine thats. What if photographs looked nothing like what we see with our eyes? Imagine that the Berlin Wall had never come down. What if we were the punchline of an interminable joke? All contributions welcome.
It's good to know this publishing chapters on one's blog in advance idea is really catching on Bryan, although some of us are doing it a little further in advance of publication than others.
ReplyDeleteI photographed moss on a tree the other day, a whole blanket on the trunk but I haven't looked at the results yet, forgot all about them indeed until I read your post. The question is: what to do with them?
ReplyDeleteIs this a case of not being able to bite the day to the core so one strains for evidence? One cannot be there so one snaps, grabs, yearns in the hope of possession?
Photographs are a snap of the jaw but we mouth empty air, are unfulfilled - in my case, wholly forgetful of the resulting illusion.
What are we supposed to do with the bloody photographs?!
be there then
- and found knowing the bark.
ReplyDeletePoor old Jeff he even managed to misspell Trollope
ReplyDeleteisn't it enough, snakebite?
ReplyDelete''...I'm not all that interested in the subject of photography. Once the picture is in the box, I'm not all that interested in what happens next. Hunters, after all, aren't cooks.''
