Not another soul was on the beach! It really changed the way I think and work, and that day I became an artist much more focused on landscape and my place in it. I'm glad so many people enjoy this photograph; here are a few of the other shots that day

9 years today I took this photo! I find that pretty outrageous. I took a trip to Barry Island to do some filming, but I soon gave up and had a wander. Pretty quickly the rain came in, and then the sunbeam, and I'm still shocked that I managed to be in the right place at the right time.

Landscape https://www.wikiart.org/en/paul-nash/landscape-1927

This artwork, titled "Landscape," captures the tranquil beauty of nature with its gentle hues and soft depiction of trees and fields, reminiscent of Paul Nash's ethereal style. Known for blending surrealism with various artistic movements, Nash often drew inspiration from the English countryside, infusing his landscapes with dreamlike abstraction.

Looks like transecercration! A bit like desecration?

Not posted so much because I've been so busy and asthma has been a real ballache, but what do you think of my little test for what a Wales at the Seaside booklet could look like? Playing with colour, text, texture etc. Will probably be ready in time for Christmas!

I'll ask again... Someone MUST have links to Tom Jones? I'd love to photograph him for my CYMRU project; and I live in the street he was born on! Here he is on the old bridge in Ponty

supposedly that stuff can be made without the worries of the metrics of ratings. Putting some techbro clone in charge will certainly not help at all- how do we get the BBC back?

himself- playing more of a character than actually presenting. A few years ago we had a whole channel for programming like this (BBC4), but now art and culture shows on the BBC can probably be counted on the fingers of one hand (on television); the point of the BBC is also

I watched the first episode of Jonathan Meades' 'Abroad in Britain' last night, and thought pretty much straight away, why is the BBC no longer capable of making programming like this? It's 36 years old, but still whips along beautifully in its editing, music and 'Meades'

An awful poster (Steptoe isn't in it) for a pretty good film, which in itself is an excellent coda for the fairytale nightmare gothic that Hammer excelled at
