"Portrait Of Saul Leiter." Acrylic and pastel. #art #artsky #painting #painter #blueskyart #photography

Born in 1923, Leiter was an American photographer and painter best known for his impressionistic, painterly street photography. I love his work.

It's a local stopping service, Chapeltown, Elsecar, Wombwell and the rest, eleven stations from end to end. The carriage is empty when I board and only half-full when I leave. I unfold and refold the maps, the Explorers and the Landrangers, repack the rucksack, and drift in and out of sleep. 3/

The walking begins at 4.42am, three miles from Hillsborough to Sheffield station, out of the house into a stop-start sprint and the rucksack as light as I can make it. Langsett Road, Infirmary Road, West Bar. A walk before the walk. 5.18am when I reach the platform. 5.28am when the train departs. 2/

A (very) approximate route map of yesterday's walk from Leeds to Goole: forty miles, fifteen hours, four counties, two wrong turns, and one illegal fence, strung the width of the towpath, uprooted and destroyed.

Don't we owe them more than terror? Are we comfortable with the idea that we continue gilding and embellishing and redecorating the present by looting the future.

Since I'm quoting Tim Winton talking about the climate crisis in my last post((the quote comes from a talk at Canberra Writers Festival about his novel 'Juice') a shout out for the book
A cli-fi thriller, it asks a fundamental & urgent question, which is, 'What do we owe to future generations?'

The cover of ' Juice' a novel by Tim Winton.
