It's Sunday evening and it's been a busy few days. I've been to Norwich to see the
Elisabeth Frink exhibition at the university art centre (till 24th) which captivated me completely but didn't allow photography ... which is good because it
makes you draw-to-remember, and drawing makes you
look, and that degree of looking makes you see things you can't articulate but feel-and-understand.
Also there was the east-anglian sky, filling half of the visual field (no hills, very few tall buildings) and in the rural(ish) setting, a chance to see trees against that sky -

| from the cafe |
 |
| from the (parked) car |
 |
| just because ... of its lovely fuzziness... |
We also went to
Blickling Hall, with its wonderfully wide and long yew hedges, planted in the 1740s I was told - the insides like the path to Sleeping Beauty's castle by now -
but looking very kempt on the outside... (and with pollarded trees behind) -
And today, a captivating course at City Lit about
Godzilla - the 1954 film (Japanese) and its (many! often American!) remakes, and the context of their content. Too short a day, and my head is spinning.
