Apertures

October 30, 2022 by Simon Robinson 1 Comment

This month’s pictures are of openings into the opening that is the aperture in the lens’s diaphragm as seen by the lenses between the camera and the mind’s eye. Each is a kind of three-for-one and many include an element of the fourth dimension, time travel. And like coins, there are potential dark reverse interpretations.

Perspective Loss

September 30, 2022 by Simon Robinson Leave a Comment

Your experience of this chapbook starts with looking. Perhaps you’ll find more geographic detail than can be comprehended, perhaps less image resolution than you’d like.

Limerick Walls

August 31, 2022 by Simon Robinson 1 Comment

Advance and Retire

Every stone and brick herein is a handstone, each a memorial to the smiths that shaped and placed them using skills honed over a millennium. Their work has withstood the tests of assaults, sieges, invasions and regeneration schemes. The craftsmens’ names may have been effaced by time but their legacy still supports and renders the city in good light.

Omne Bonum

July 31, 2022 by Simon Robinson Leave a Comment

Omne Bonum (Every Good Thing) is an incomplete encyclopaedia created by James le Palmer (died ~1375) which survives as four volumes in the British Library. Can we say that every thing is good in our knowledge 650 years on?

Willow

June 30, 2022 by Simon Robinson Leave a Comment

Having leaves two inches broad …

This collection of photographs shows recent activity on the twenty year old Salix caprea ‘Kilmarnock’ (formerly ‘Pendula’) in our back garden. Whether presenting bare canes in winter, early catkins in spring, luxuriant summer leaves or an autumnal colour show, it’s a hive of activity in all seasons.
