Leaving

Back in the beginning of time, before Eurostar and Shuttle, we used to take the Townsend Thoresen ferry over to the UK to visit my wife’s family. It was also a time when I thought nothing of going out on deck in any kind of weather to get an interesting shot.

This just cropped up as I came across a couple gazing back at the port we were leaving, the bright lights illuminating the clouds made me think of a city on fire… the apocalypse we were collectively fleeing…

OK, in the sobering light of the developer’s counter it all seemed a bit less moody. But it still conveyed the same message so as a nod to our collective isolation efforts from Covid 19, I thought I’d include it here.
