Bowness on Solway and the sadness of photographs ...


We stopped to take photographs of each other outside Bowness on Solway - 

We were now very near the end of our journey - soon we would be writing our words in the black book kept behind the bar at the King's Arms - 

My heart was already racing - I was dizzy with memory -  

I thought of the song by The Kinks, People take pictures of each other - I could hear Ray Davies, singing inside my head - 

When I look at my picture, I thought, I would remember every aspect of this moment - 

The sadness of photographs threatened to overwhelm me -
