J.G. Ballard, lost in the supermarket
"It was ironic that the author of such unsettling work was a quiet and serious family man, who lived most of his adult life in a modest suburban house in Shepperton. His editor Malcom Edwards recalled how Ballard, on receiving the first payment for the film rights for Empire of the Sun, decided to splash out by visiting his local supermarket. After wandering the aisles for some time, he returned home with a tin of salmon." (Adam Sisman in the Guardian, 25.04.26)

some folks (maybe missionaries?) from New Zealand are staying the night in our apartment tomorrow night. They are getting in late at night, and I’m leaving early in the morning. If I’m lucky, I’ll never have to interact with them. 🤞

A month in four photos. September 2026. #FourPhotosOneMonth 1. bus stop - troon 2. scape - calpe 3. pocket - greenock 4. stairs - valencia
High contrast black and white photograph centered on a glowing glass bus shelter standing along a quiet suburban road. Bright light illuminates the interior glass panes of the shelter, revealing faint graffiti and bus schedule postings framed by dark structural guidelines. The surrounding environment, including lowrise residential houses and surrounding trees in the background, as well as three wooden bollards in the grassy foreground is cast in deep shadow and silhouetted against a clear sky. The scene carries a stark, quiet, and moody atmospheric tone.  A high contrast black and white photograph framing a dramatic coastal scene in a square format. On the left side, a massive, sheer rock cliff face towers vertically with detailed, craggy stone textures. Rocky boulders occupy the foreground below. To the right, calm open water stretches toward a bright horizon where sunlight pierces through heavy, dark rain clouds overhead, casting subtle light rays onto the sea surface. A single small boat is silhouetted on the water in the distance, emphasizing the vast scale of the seascape. The image carries a dramatic, moody, and serene atmosphere.A high contrast black and white photograph in a square format focusing on the metal spiral of a corkscrew, positioned vertically in the center of the frame against a dark, seamless background. Soft, directional side lighting catches the curved metallic edges, creating bright linear highlights along the top of each coil while casting the undersides and body in deep shadow. The minimalist composition emphasizes shape, metallic luster, and dramatic tonal contrast.High contrast black and white street photograph featuring wide outdoor stone stairs rising diagonally across the frame under a clear sky. On the left, a silhouetted figure in dark clothing walks near the top of the flight. On the right, a person in a patterned summer dress walks down along a bright white concrete retaining wall topped with a stone section and metal handrail. Deep geometric shadows obscure the bottom foreground steps, emphasizing strong diagonal lines, sharp light, and urban architectural structure.

bus stop #Photography #ECK #AOFoto #BlackAndWhitePhotography #StreetPhotography #Lumix
A high contrast, black and white photograph framed within a thin white border. Centered in the midground, a modern glass paneled bus shelter stands brightly illuminated by low angle sunlight, making its translucent frosted panes glow against the shadows. Faint graffiti tag lettering is visible on the central rear panel of the shelter. The background is dominated by the dark silhouettes of residential buildings and trees against a clear sky. In the deep shadow of the foreground, a paved road stretches horizontally, fronted by grass and three dark wooden bollards.

Six views and phases of one sunset over Lake Ontario at Balmy Beach in Toronto. The sky with streaking clouds changes dramatically from pale pink and blue, all pastel pink, to vibrant yellow and pink and blue, to bright orange and grey. The water visible in some images reflects the sky's colours.

Most of my portrayal of Jesus is less about his time running amok as a religious heretic and more about his time as an unreliable contractor.
