WINTER GLORY
This is the river Charente at Port d'Envaux in all its spindly finery, a time when boats hang low and trees wait for the warmth of spring.

THE RIVER IN HIBERNATION
The silver morning
Rises, branches soaring
Fingers reach skywards

A black and white photograph showing a river with mist rising across the calm surface. Reflective trees on the right-hand side point into the white nothingness. The water is so calm there is not a ripple. Faintly, on the left, another bank looks distantly through the mist.

IF TURNER HAD OWNED A CAMERA
When you go to buy a baguette and dawn gifts you a sunrise...I kept expecting the fighting Temeraire to push into sight, her rigging bare and the faint call of the leadsman in the bow.

An misty morning on the river Charente at Saint Savinien, in the Charente Maritime, SW France. Golds, yellows and orange swirl in an ethereal haze across the calm water, with scrub and small trees providing a backdrop on the far bank. There is a blue sky and a promise of a fine day ahead.
