It's on the way out, of course, and past its best (as are so many of us, sadly) but the bright primary colours appealed to me. What do you think?

Nice one, Jeremy.

You should check out Paul Caponigro's book called Sunflower. All black and white, but great variety.

What a pessimist. At your age, Jeremy, you're at your peak. And I'm 86 and still at my best.

Oh, nice shot.

Thanks, Russ. I find pessimism serves me well. As one comic put it, "My mother is so pessimistic that if there were an Olympic medal for pessimism, she wouldn't fancy her chances at all".

Continue standing tall, eh?
