Bolsover Caste - Outer Courtyard


Standing at the corner
People look at me oddly -
I realise it's the toilet.

Like the way this pic eliminates corners by turning them into curves...

I like how the fragmented view makes the place look like it might be an interference from another dimension.

I was in a right angle corner - the curves are actually straight lines, distorted by the camera.

No wonder they looked at you oddly!

I was surprised to see that the place is empty! All of it?

It is all empty. English Heritage own it. "The Little Keep" is habitable but empty.

That's an amazing effect, the 'rounding off' of the walls. How clever.

I worked on relief at the Nat West in Bolsover for 6 weeks. I loved the castle.

I'd never been before. It really is amazing.

Beautiful photography again, LD - You are an inspired photographer, even if you do hang around outside of loos!

And I love today's painted pic and poesie - Particularly the little doglette! Have a fine and creative weekend 1

This is my favourite of the lot, both the photo and the haiku.

Mine too, as it happens.
