G.F. Watts’ horseback figure is one of the many fine statues in London’s Hyde Park. He uses a monumental sculpture to portray its opposite, the dynamic horseman riding against the wind.
Last night’s autumn gales have left few leaves on the trees, revealing the clouds scudding along in the sky above.
I'm trying to show in 2D the concept which the statue shows in 3D.

Plus Belle la Vie is the peak-time French television soap opera about life in Marseille. The cast and crew of PBLV can often be seen filming video in and around Marseille. Nonetheless, storylines in PBLV have about as much to do with the lives of actual Marseillais as those of the UK’s Eastenders or Coronation Street do with their corresponding real-life locations.
Green finches in the bird bath in my garden. Social birds but also quite competitive. Tempting to impute human characteristics to their little faces...
Eyeballed at morning coffee today by the female of the pair of blue tits who frequent my garden.
As with humans, portraits of animals are best given not taken. It's a treat and a privilege to exchange glances with a wild animal like this.
Tits pair for life, this pair have been around me here for several years now.
My treatment of a photo of biker Jon on his BMW motorbike in London. The original was his phone photo dating from 2011, which initially didn't look all that promising. Basically Photoshop work with quite a lot of manual intervention.
