framing suggestion:
Pin Mill, on the peninsula just south of Ipswich, is a favourite spot of mine, and often allows me
an interesting picture. This one, of which I had few expectations, has nevertheless proven
unusually popular with my clientele at the yearly 'Art on the Prom' in Felixstowe. Its simple lines
and diagonal composition are pleasing, though it's not a picture we've hung on the wall at
home. But it takes all sorts, and I'm glad that it's pleased others. An awful lot of rubbish is
written about photography as 'art', a concept to which I have never subscribed, and do so
even less in this era of instant photography (of a sort that Polaroid never envisaged), the sort
of 'art' that's now produced by Instagram and Twitter feeds. I once had to film the opening of
a Polaroid exhibition somewhere in London, I forget the details. It was universally trite and
pretentious, and I clearly wasn't the only one to think so, although somebody evidently didn't
agree. The collection is probably in the hands of the Tate Gallery now, I shouldn't be
surprised, probably sold for more than I've earned in my lifetime.
