A Nap by the Beach



A couple more images for my collection of sunlight and shade.







…possible addition to the Looking Down project…?





Yet another early morning, half-blind, still life. Without my glasses on, this appeared, bleary-eyed and interesting, supporting my jumping out of bed to grab my camera from another room and attach a macro lens to it. While the post is titled “glasses,” both my glasses and the bottle behind are, in fact, made of plastics.




The Brighton and Hove u3a camera photography group went shooting in the Gardens last month and this is one I shot while we were there.


More work playing with the macro lens and the sunlight on and through plastic furniture.

Walking from one Artist Open House to the next in Hove we passed lots of front garden flowers (gladiolus above, purple Jerusalem sage below).


An amusing gloss on the artists’ own height chart in the next doorway at Studio 28a on our Hove Artists Open Houses tour last month.

One of the pleasures of touring Brighton’s Artists Open Houses each May is seeing the artists’ tools, paints, and brushes and other craft paraphernalia. At Lara Bowen’s studio we saw a set of colour swatches she created in the depths of lockdown, capturing (and labeling) the emotions of those times.
