Bristol, England - 'Yma/Here' (7, 8 & 9)
An ambiguous and extensive examination of the urban topography of South Wales and the West of England from 2016 to 2018.
In the foreground there is a man on a bicycle silhouetted in deep shadow. In the background there is a graffiti covered shop front with the words 'Forgive Us Our Tresspases (sic)' Beyond the shop front we can make out some roof tops, a tree and a fairly clear sky. For those who might be interested, the shop in question has since been demolished. On a street corner, deep in shadow, we see box shaped residential building with three rows of windows and a door. Painted on the end of said building is a huge wave. The wave itself is as high the building and mimics The Great Wave off Kanagawa by japanese artist Hokusai. I was last in the area few weeks ago and this particular piece of street art is still there (happily). A shop front, in this case a hairdressers, featuring a large advertising picture of a woman's face. She is looking out towards the camera. Either side of her, walking in the street are two men - both are a blur of motion but their standing feet (as they walk) are captured crisply. They are oblivious to the picture of the woman as she is of them - her main focus being the advertising of hair product. The gritty banality of the street scene, the blur of the two passerby and the striking beauty of the woman in the picture makes for a slightly surreal scene. It also amuses me that the thing that works about this image is somebody else's photograph.

More bad news for the Muskrat.
This is going to be a huge hit to his already ruined social media site.
I love this for him.

Came across a reel on Insta. showing a photographer taking pictures of homeless men, posing them for styled shots. Massively post processed also added to the fact that these were simply for the photographer with no context of the subject’s situation. Truly awful.

'Remember, through your heart’s rekindling pride
The German soldiers who were loyal and brave…'
A German dugout typical of the Ypres salient, by Frank Hurley, 1917
#RemembranceDay
A bleak scene from the battlefield with a bare tree, sodden ground and a dead soldier near a shelled German position.

Looks like a lot of who I followed on Twitter are already on here, why was I so late to the party?
