A photo for July 2014

When I was a boy my bedroom faced west. I loved watching the sun set. The backdrop wasn’t the prettiest – gasometers, tower blocks, and the like.

I take a lot of sunset photos. I’d never really wondered (until now) if that was some sort of throwback to a childhood fascination. But it has to be reasonable to assume that a great many of us, even if we are unaware or in denial, are stuck in patterns of behaviour that became established when we were young.
