A little bit of imperfection…
For all I can enjoy beautifully curated accounts, there is something richer and deeper in the ordinary everyday moments, quickly captured, without the ‘big tidy’
I love it when people just show themselves because they are happy with what they see.
In these two photographs; my Christmas tree by the smallest window with the best light is giving me so much pleasure. I walk into the room, and it’s the first thing I see.
I come downstairs in the dark in the dead of night, to its twinkling welcome.
You will notice in both images are signs of domesticity .
The first image has towels drying on the backs of the dining chairs.
Quickly grabbed from the washing line as a squall of rain passed over.
I didn’t notice them when I picked up my camera, because what I saw was the feeling of the story before my eyes. It is now all the richer for me with the signs of daily life.
The second image has piles of books from the bookcase on the table.
All had to be emptied to access room to put in a Smart meter. I disapprove. George approves. A bit of ‘ a domestic’ going on here.
This time, the good man won.
