A kid does some kind of kung-fu dance move against a pink/blue background. Another looks on, back half turned. As though the fate of the dancer is of concern, worthy of study, of delight; and yet the watcher, chooses their angle carefully, keeps out of the dance. A birthday present from Mr Blue.

A row of pillars stretching into a blue sky. Palmyra. The blue is transcluscent. The pillars are captured at such an angle that they seem to be constantly falling over.

An ornate frame, like something out of a Wild West bordello, encompasses a photo of a girl sitting on rocks. A large dog, short-haired, black flesh, ears pricked up, stands behind the girl, looking out to sea.

A sepia photo of a man with a pipe sticking out his mouth. Looking contented enough with the world. Neat hair, suit and tie. A posed photograph, the sort that used to get taken before cameras were a common household currency. A man probably younger than myself.
