shortly it would begin to rain
Actually, “Shortly it would begin to rain.” could have been the complete weather forecast for the whole time I was in Scotland.
It was almost always about to rain, and this photo was made just before another patch of cold rain fell on us. It wasn’t so bad, once you got used to it. Plus the clouds! They worked hard to enhance the photographs.

The old and new Queensferry bridges, spanning the Firth of Forth, photographed from water level in North Queensferry. (Many thanks to Sam Thomson and Steven Thomson at Edinburgh Tour Guides for showing us this out-of-the-way spot.)

his beloved wife
Well, of course I like to photograph cemeteries. And if they are in Scotland and called graveyards and are a lot older than what I am used to seeing and if the day is cold and dreary, then I like it even more.

window washing day
Then there was that one morning in Edinburgh when the window washer – four floors down – reached all the way up and cleaned our windows. I followed the brush from window to window to get The Shot I Wanted. It seemed like a critical moment, somehow.
