Vanishing Point: Rosebeke
A strange day. I’ve been working very loosely on an ongoing project called ‘Vanishing Points’ for a while. I’m a bit of a fan of VPs, lots of artists are as a way of leading the eye into compositions, focussing the viewers mind. Kubrick for...

I thought it was about time I did a bit of quantifying, I’ve done a something in a previous piece here, which scratches at the back of a story but only tells the penultimate episode of it not the rest, there’s other bits clanging and banging about on the...

The long walk
Not the most thrilling set of photographs, but the one above shows how a field with some lumps in it, tells a story or doesn’t. And of course it also tells how history is there, I’m just the princess who knows where that particular pea is under this...Products

Ring-roads, go round and past. Nature of the beast I suppose, circling. Norwich is blessed with ever-increasing circles; from the old castle ditches and the fee to the city wall and the inner linkA curiosity - now confirmed to be one of four Chapel boundary markers, thanks to Stephen Jarvis.
Prior to this: Spotted this on Mousehold. It’s a piece of what looks to be limestone rather than concrete. I suspect it’s usually obscured by bracken, about 8 inches deep and wide.
