  2. Thank you! I struggled over the combination of slip and trip as cliche, but then the rhyme is too lovely, and how they feel to say. Rob Schackne, gorgeous poem.

  3. that's nice. Also it's weird the way the venetians in the image seem to flicker as you scroll. Just like insomnia

  4. Yes, it works well on the screen, dark images can be problematic on screen, and I like dark images, but sometimes their subtlety and richness is just lost in black, where yes, it seems something has been added to this with the scroll, Anna, thanks for pointing that out. It was nice too because we were walking and Dylan pointed out this rather wonderful shadow to me, as he knew the sorts of images I like to try and collect. And there it was!

  5. It does too Anna! I had to wear a hand-me-down netball uniform like that - it flickered even when I wasn't moving. Hard to iron!
    Sarah the words and image are fabulous. I think some of your images and combinations are extraordinary.
