“When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence.”— Ansel Adams

 For quite a long time I had two blogs – one for the camera and one for the pen. Each clamoured for attention and the split never felt quite right so I’ve resolved the quandary here by joining forces and creating PoetryPix. The name speaks for itself as sometimes it’s best to do just what it says on the box

• Poetry ~ I always hesitate to call my writing such but the amateur is not always amateurish and I take my efforts seriously enough. Certainly seriously enough to have imported most of my poetry since 2015. Sometimes I also write prose but not at any great length. I’m no storyteller.
• Pix ~ The aim of my photography now is based on the old adage less is more so I’ve only imported some of my favourites from a previous photo blog – 

  N.B: I’m particular about correct spelling and grammar but have deliberately used the mis-spelling of ‘pics’ to denote the use of a digital camera (currently Panasonic G6). Essentially then my photos are pixels to be manipulated at will.  I aim for the purer side of captures but do use post camera Adobe software

 I’ve chosen to go ad free as I want this virtual space to be devoid of third party buying or selling.  Enjoy!

A note on Headers: I shall frequently refresh the header images – all are photos of places I have walked with Martin. These reminders help make his presence a little more tangible
