The clocks went back last night. I think Shona is enjoying the extra sleep time, although I am unsure why we allow clocks to manage our time. <\/h5>\n\n\n\n
We are at Conkers, one of our favourite campsites, which is in the National Forest. As I looked out of the window above my bed the angle made the campsite look sort of squashed but actually it has lots of space between pitches. I used the 150mm focal length on the Olympus EM1 to squash us up even more!<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

W<\/strong>hen I take a photograph that really interests me I often write a little haiku. I write them in three lines of 5\/7\/5 syllables. T<\/strong>hey do not have to rhyme, they do not have to describe the photograph, they are simply what the image led me to write. I<\/strong> only allow myself 60 seconds to write it. It is about being in the moment of seeing the photograph, just as my photographs are made in the moment of seeing<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
