Burnished

Burnished

As I post this at the end of January, Autumn seems a long time ago. This particular photo was taken almost nine years ago, so that's moot.

I was importing old photos into darktable, and this one struck me as one that had gotten away...

There's a scene in Death: The High Cost of Living, where Death takes a baby. As she walks with it into the beyond, the baby complains that it's not fair, and Death replies that the baby got what everyone gets: a life.

Another beautiful sunset, and I have no idea where I took it.

I know it was in Beckenham. I've taken a guess based on some things, but it's not quite right.

But then, this is one of the last of the many photos I took that night - and one taken whilst walking home, it seems. It was evidently an evening well spent.

In 2008, I went to Beckenham Place Park specifically to try and capture photos as the sun set.

Time well spent, it would seem...

Cyphers Clubhouse Ruin

Cyphers Clubhouse Ruin

Ruined by a fire, this is now luxury housing. Once, people watched the gentle crack of leather upon willow here on warm days, politely clapping as the day draws on.
I know which I prefer.

A once proud tree, now home to insects and standing incongruously in a lush green park.
