the opposite of a high light
someone had crashed their car in to this telegraph pole and knocked the light off. so some firemens had wrapped it round the trunk and put some tape on to keep us all safe. good on them.
the angle poise light in the window
i was struck by this mysterious angle poise light up in a window in bath last week. he was watching me watching him
three lights
apologies for lack of updates today. i stuffed up on my preplanning and yesterday got two helpings. normalish service resumed tomorrow hopefully. oooosp.
seeing the light
photography is mostly about light, which is why websites like this are so brilliant. esther and kezia shouted me to come urgently with my camera yesterday morning as their toys were being lit by a thin slither of light which was coming through the living room curtains and illuminating a piece of string holding a toy balloon. fantastic stuff which of course completely confused my camera.

lighting trafalgar square
an excellent thing. trafalgar square is such a great place in the modern era.
seeing the light
well done to Rascle for guessing the thing. it was in fact some modern stage lights as used at the holiday club last week. that particular light poked me in the ear. which was nice.
the pudding party candle picture
jane and i were invited round to some friends for a pudding party last night where we ate puddings and laughed heartily. as it was going dark i noticed this unlit candle, which was never lit. we remained until it got too dark to see and then we left under cover of the night.
seeing and hearing the light
i went to a meeting in a commission conferenc hall which had the most amazing lights on the ceiling. After each presentation they would switch them on and effect on the room in terms of light and sound was quite dramatic. i imagine half of luxembourg dimmed when theses lights were switched on !
as a special treat, here's some video footage i attempted (i've no idea what this will look like on the actual blog page):

bulb
'bulb' is one of those words which quickly loses its meaning if you keep saying it out loud over and over to yourself.
try it. enjoy it. bulb.
de-lighted
oh dear. a big supermarket truck reversed in to this light just outside my office window
later in the day the top had been chopped off and the rest had been laid to rest
this was ages ago too.
topless light
did the top just pop off ? don't hide your light under an orange ball.
dismantelling the lights
they were taking down the ancient lights along the southbank when i walked by yesterday morning
the chap doing the deed seemed to have no head
so, it's goodbye to the old
a friend with a strange hobby
andrew, who goes to the same church as we do, takes pictures of street lamps. how cool is that ?
here's an example:
dust storm
intruder light shining through a dust storm created by some car bourne hooligans skidding round a carpark. beauty in chaos.
