Emerson, Shakespeare, Tolstoy and Melville all wrote books in a way that my simple brain couldn’t quite comprehend. Be it the old English language or the complexity of the sentences, they all beat me. I probably have more reading ability than I let on at times, and I have read some monster books in my time, but I could never quite crack the ones like Moby Dick (The proper unabridged version) or War and Peace, books that I would love to read.

You are probably wondering what this has got to do with photography. Not a lot. Actually, nothing more than a recommendation. It is as simple as that. You see, I have never actually met the author of this blog, not in the skin. I have spoken to him on MSN, Skype and the telephone. And I consider him a good friend. I consider him a clever bugger too. His latest blog post, just missed the train, is a fine example of what I am talking about. I would love to be able to tell a story so well. Very well written and entertaining, a blog worth reading.

Keep up the great work Mick.
