Photographs

Crunch
The crunch, crunch of a pebbly beach. This beach is in Porlock, Somerset, UK. The photo was taken five years ago.

Day 21 of mbaug

Change
I’ve watched this old railway carriage, in a corner of South Wales, change over the decades as it is slowly taken over by the natural world surrounding it.

Day 20 of mbaug

Ribbon
I’m not sure if these count as ribbons, but I’ll take them! Rolls of indigo cloth tied up with ribbons in a fabric factory in Chikugo-shi, Fukuoka, Japan.

Day 19 of mbaug

Grid
The wire grid pattern that makes up the fence around our property.

Day 18 of mbaug

Late afternoon rainbow. It is possible to make out another one just above it. At one point there was a third. 🌈

Cuddly
Bronx, mostly cuddly, but not always!

Day 17 of mbaug

Stationary
This one wasn’t going anywhere very quickly. Taken in Florida a couple of years ago.

Day 16 of mbaug

Silhouette
Inside looking out.

Day 15 of mbaug

Nature’s patterns.

Among
Among the ruins of Glanum, south of Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. A sober reminder of the transitory nature of civilizations.

Day 14 of mbaug

Filter
Filtering the morning brew.

Day 13 of mbaug

Sound
This photo was taken in a fabric weaving factory in Yame, southern Japan in October 2016. Noise might have been a better prompt than sound as the volume was deafening!

Day 12 of mbaug

Transport
This was taken during travels in my twenties. I am in Pakistan, somewhere between Karachi and Lahore. Out walking, I was offered a ride on a cart pulled by a camel.

Day 10 of mbaug

Black-and-White
Taken in the South of France (Arles, I think), September 2018.

Day 9 of mbaug

View
For 16 years this view was my view. Sitting in South Wales, looking across the fields to the Black Mountains in the far distance (just out of view in this photograph).

Day 8 of mbaug

South Wales towards the Black Mountains

Listening to Saturday Morning, Lying in Bed by Indiemono, except that I have been up for a while. For the last few weeks, this playlist seems to have been my morning sound. 🎵

Daytripping
Weston-Super-Mare during the spring of 2016. The family and grandparents use to day trip here when I was a kid. Fond memories of riding on the donkeys, and trekking through the mud to the sea during low tide!

Day 7 of mbaug

Bisect
Kyoto Gyoen (Imperial Gardens, Kyoto, Japan), September 2016.

Day 6 of mbaug

Flow
Isle of Skye, Scotland. 2015

Day 5 of mbaug

Peace
The peace, for me, that comes through faith and practice.

Day 4 of mbaug

Bug
A centipede catching the early morning light. These critters have a very nasty bite as my wife can attest to. She needed antibiotics to manage the swelling. Stay away from them.

Day 3 of mbaug

I post a lot of sunsets here, and I couldn’t resist adding this evening’s to the mix.

Float
Balloon Fiesta, Bristol, UK. August, 2015.

Day 2 of mbaug

Up
Flatiron building, NYC, 2015.

Day 1 of mbaug

The sun setting after the passing of Hurricane Douglas. Here in this corner of Maui the storm was really pretty mellow. I hope that the same goes for others across the State.

Views from yesterday, an overcast and wet Sunday afternoon. 😴

Two faces of Maui.

A jungle covered fresh water swimming hole.

Remote rugged cliffs where the West Maui Mountains drop into the ocean.

Journaling light.
