Images are important to me. Like music, they can strike straight to the heart, to the soul, bypassing mind. When I did my week at
Arvon with the wonderful
Philip Hensher (where I met the even more wonderful
Milla) we used images a lot to kickstart writing. So I get a huge kick out of following links, wandering down new corridors and finding beautiful pictures right out there on the walls or hiding in dark corners. I have been stingy over the years with sharing my artwork discoveries and that is going to change.

So today is just the first of what I hope will be many. I came across
Tony Martin on Twitter – not sure how – one of those serendipitous links. I like his writing. I don’t always agree with him but then wouldn’t life be boring if we always agreed? Somehow I’d missed that he was a photographer too. But a chance conversation about the
Dropkick Murphys this morning led me to
his pages on deviantART (I do love this site).... So here’s a taster of his work...
I don’t know about you but I feel stories leaking out of so many of these, just waiting to be told...
