Marvellous post. Resistance is useless. Buy film.

In the immortal words of Dudley Moore, I hate it when that happens. BTW, you shouldn't really be drinking even corked wine out of Paris goblet. Isn't it considered to be a crime against vinology?

He seems to have vanished. Not posting to instagram either.

Interesting. What did she ask you not to photograph, if you don't mind me asking? I was inspired by this to look back at what are for me the most powerful post-war images of the long-empty concentration camps, those made by Michael Kenna between 1988 and 2000, and there seemed to be nothing...

The driveway looking slightly ethereal last autumn. It's all bluebells and wisps of green now. Olly OM2n/HP5

Tough one. I think I would exclude 1,2,6 and 10. 1 and 2 both contextualise the portfolio. However, #1 is not that well exposed, the composition is a bit awkard with the headland falling away on each side, drawing the eye off, and the ripples on the water aren't that comfortable to look at...

I bet you are proud too. Marvellous.

Marc Wilson photographed the site of the internment camp at Rivesaltes for his book 'A Wounded Landscape - bearing witness to the Holocaust'. He writes that of 5000 Jews interned there, 2313 were transported to Drancy to eventually be moved to extermination camps. Amongst the photographs is one...

I struggle a bit with Tish Murtha, I appreciate her work for its extraordinary documentary value, and she was a remarkable person, but try as I might, I don't really like it. It isn't merely that I obviously can't relate to it - Chris Killip's photographs really engage me, and he was working in...

I think I heard last night on R4 Front Row that it was produced by the same guy who did Schindler's List?

A gentle one from last autumn, a ray of sun catching a young poplar one morning. Olympus OM2n & HP5 in Perceptol.

Yes, as in 'etc...' You seem agitated. Have you tried those NT scones?

Leaving aside the fact that Scotland had a referendum on leaving (yes, before brexit etc..) that might be oversimplifying things just slightly in regards of both the EU and Westminster. According to the Scottish Government's website, powers devolved from Westminster to the Scottish Government...

As a first-off you could try the photo classifieds here. I'd recommend you open the battery compartment of the FE and check there's been no leakage/damage, pick up a new set of batteries (if it needs them - LR/SR44) and check that the meter is working ok. Next stop is ebay. For both you'll need...

Aren't you the bloke who wants to take back control from a Union of which you're a full participating member? Perhaps I've confused you for someone else... I'm heartily thankful for the NT (and the RNLI, the Civil Service, the courts, the medics etc), though no organisation is above or beyond...
