A geometric hexagonal building in Florence. That was my interpretation of this week’s writephoto prompt from KL Caley at New2Writing.com. And that reminded me of Venice, where a couple went searching for something on steps. This is another woman I’d
Galleon was crying out to be part two of last week’s Fresco story. Well, you seemed to want a part two, anyway. Fortunately the #writephoto prompt from KL Caley at New2writing.com fell right into my lap, and we pick up
Fresco – well it definitely looks like one, although I am tempted to call it Al, and do something a little more off the wall 🙂 It’s today’s #writephoto prompt from KL Caley at New2Writing.com, anyway. I hope you enjoy
‘Fort’ is the writephoto prompt from KL Caley from New2Writing.com this week. It popped up just as I was considering the James Lovelock book the Vanishing Face of Gaia, which prompted a very unwelcome idea indeed. I’ll be reviewing that

A cannon in an embrasure at the top of a castle wall. Several things sprang to mind for this week’s #writephoto from Kl Caley at New2Writing.com. I remembered my recent visit up the winding stair in the tower, and returned
A camel train… I saw this and thought of a Carruthers tale I did some years ago, but it’s now in my Greed and Retribution collection of Unexpected Twisty Tales. Click the title to buy it! [this post will autodestruct
A lovely blue door, but not just one. I am intrigued, even more than when we had the door in the tree. I wondered for a while whether the two were in some way connected. This of course is my
Big Ben is actually the bell inside the clocktower at the Palace of Westminster, but everyone refers to the tower as Big Ben. It is instantly recognisable, worldwide–like the Eiffel Tower, or Sydney Opera House. It’s the writephoto prompt from
Battleship. I guess this came into London recently as KL Caley’s post on New2Writing.com suggests a news item. I missed it. But I had a vivid thought of another time and place. So I wrote it pretty much straight away,
Vineyard – a picture that came into my inbox hot on the heels of KL Caley’s #writephoto notification. And I was so taken with it that I emailed the senders asking for permission to use it. So I have. Sorry,
Approach to the tower. It doesn’t seem long since we had another tower along an approach for #writephoto, but I’m sure KL Caley at New2writing.com knows what she’s doing! This one came to me over breakfast on Saturday. It’s nearly
