Well it looks like I'm looking up and worshiping the Heron and it has that look that considers me inferior.

Looking up, we see a Nimrod AEW3 aircraft chasing rainbows at the bottom of the garden as the gathering storm blows in. Canon A1, Kodachrome 64, August 1983.

The negatives for many (but not all) of my early photos ended up in landfill in 1980 due to an overzealous school caretaker so this from 1977 is a scan of the proof print I put up on the Church Hall notice board to sell prints to the other members of the Durham University Methodist Society who were with me on retreat on Lindisfarne. My records tell me this was taken on my Yashica TL Electro on FP4 which I rated at 500 ASA (this would have been pushed in Promicrol). The other memory of this shot is that I was laying down on the floor of the limekiln with the tide coming in and waves lapping closer and closer up the shore.

I was asked to photograph a Chinese funeral and the send off included some fireworks. The pictures weren't outstanding by any means. But, here is one of the mourners looking up...

Sorry I wasn't paying attention here, folks. Didn't even manage to add the entry I'd identified in my mind either. But poll now added...
