Porth Loo Lane, Isles of Scilly ... 28 miles off the coast of Cornwall. Take a moment please to celebrate the beauty of this gracious island home, that I fell in love with ... • I mean, really ... A Cornish home with portholes in the nautical vein? Crazy beautiful ... And I'll post another Scillionian home and Cornish cottage - pretty in a row - to focus my mind on more sympathetic surroundings soon. • Summer is hard, hot, and humid in B-Town, or thereabouts ... And as such (having recently reported Melrose to the EPA), I'm reminded of an old rock song from Boston, that perfectly captures the spirit of the area speaking of lovers, muggers, and thieves ... and loving that 'dirty water, Oh Boston, you're my home ...' • That's The Standells trying hard to sound like The Animals in 1966 ... Still a state anthem played at Fenway Park for sporting events and a standard they live up to by dumping sewage into rivers, streams, ponds ... and even beautiful Crane Beach, but as I live among hard-nosed crime bosses ... my goal, as I always remind everyone, is to leave here (through script sales) by end of 2017 ... • Thus St Mary's, Isles of Scilly and places in Great Britain where dirty water and ethics are not celebrated quite so openly ... • Oh, Boston ... You're definitely NOT my home! 😂 • P.S. My #Adventures #Hackgate screenplay is so tight, I see #BAFTAs standing in line to fall at the feet of my actors! 🎭✍ • #WritersofInstagram #Editors #ScreenwritersofInstagram #IslesofScilly #StMarys @visitislesofscilly #writersbolthole #writersandwalkers #Adventures #Writing #futureexpats #beachhomes #dreamhomes #ScillyIsles #CleanWater #CleanEthics This is sort of an accidental photo ... I remember taking it over my shoulder as I was leaving Truro, a visit entirely taken up by my taking photos of the cathedral and the organ (I wrote about it here on Advent). However, the whole interior was so shrouded in a sepulchre-like atmosphere (saving ££££ on light bills?) that I spent hours on one photo trying to lift it from the sepia palate of my cellphone. • This one, taken as the sun was going down, had nothing going for it, but recently I cropped it and forced the focus on the spires and light reflected in the clouds, and found some memory trapped in my consciousness of church spires, and Turneresque skies, and my beloved England ... even over my shoulder always looking fine. • #WritersofInstagram #Editors #Screenwriters #TruroCathedral #Cornwall #England #Truro #ChurchesofInstagram #Ancestors #Englishness #Pixlr #Photoshop A photo I played around with tonight that carried me away ... • Thinking about Cornwall really makes me sense the beauty in the world, changes my outlook, and colours my life in such a happy way, that I think there may be hope for the kind of existence I imagine for myself: living by the sea around other free thinking people, who don't like being bossed by psychos, and incidentally ... don't poison Swans and Cygnets! • To you, Cornwall ... Thousands of miles away, you still give me hope! 🌞💦✨💦💙💦🌸💦✨💦🐚💦💖💦🌻💦😊💦 • #Photoshop, #Pixlr, #Snapseed & #Lightbox ... #silkfilter • #WritersofInstagram #Editors #ScreenwritersofInstagram #StIves #Cornwall #BamaluzBeach #ILoveCornwall #SWisbest #GreatBritainsBeaches #kernow #explorecornwall #writersboltholes #expatdreams #cornishparadise #swadventures #AdventuresinParadise ✍ Cygnets at about 6 weeks old with Cecil and Sylvie ... • These photos are heavily filtered, or in the case of the first photo saturated for 'art' or something attempting to resemble it ... And I did this to disquise, as much as I could, the poor quality of the water in Ell Pond that at times is so atrociously brown I've been known to gag! 😷 • Of course, there is an unspoken rule on Instagram not to bring unhappiness to this space or to bum people out with sad tales ... And I hold to that mostly, while acknowledging that where I live in #Massacuckoo there are no respecters of natural resources, and apparently they also have no place to flush their shit either - except Ell Pond. And this is why there's a murkiness or darkness in many patches of the pond, except when the sky is blue and the clouds manage to lighten up things a bit ... But no mistake, it's a filthy place, and the people are certainly cynical and uncaring about it. • Too bad ... Thus, I spend some hours, when I can, messing around with my photos to bring what surely could be a beautiful and magical place to light ... If, and a really BIG if ... if the locals were not so crude and insensitive and unable to comprehend such nuances as: 'Do not flush your feces into a pond in the middle of a smallish town where wildlife exists and depends upon it, children play nearby, and people fish.' • Altogether backward, crawling with (genuine) bad Hombres, and I do sincerely wish with that I could make some progress in #screenplay sales to effect an exit, as ths place is suffocating ...✍ • At any rate, despite the gloomy poop (literally sorry!), I do hope some of you can find a photo here to enjoy. The first is probably my favorite, as I did not see the Dragon Fly 'til I looked at my camera later today, and the last is my little pond monster Cecil who follows me around hoping for - no - demanding his English Muffins! In fact, I may have created such intense Anglophile swans it's all they really enjoy, and their pleasure borders on euphoria ... Wish you could see their happy excited faces at the sight of a Thomas's ... #swansinlove💟✨🌞🔆😊 • #WritersofInstagram #Editors #Screenwriters #Adventures #TheSagaofEllPond Cornish hedge or hedgerow filled with English Ivy and every possible plant, wild flower, and perhaps even (I've since learned) eatable plants such as Alexanders, Ramsons, Cuckoo-Flowers ... And as I trod the path toward St Just, I thought this hedge (look at that cobbled wall peeking out) with the tower of St Just church in the B.G. was so charming, that I fell in love just a little, then and there. If you glance around my page among the more recent posts, you'll find a young man pouring out a 🍺 in St Just, and the look on his face says it all: genial, decent, generous ... wanting to share spontaneously in the moment of the greatness of the small. • And this is the greatness I've met everywhere in my travels: wonderment at a pretty white flower you may have to bend down to look at more closely, or the small acts of kindness offered you with a beer: a smiling young man! Or someone going out of their way to help you out when you're checking out of a hotel, or trying to find a watering hole ... huffing and puffing in the middle of riotous island bracken without a clue as to where you are ... when cruelty is celebrated everywhere. How rare are these qualities in our world today? • When we forget how to love the little, we risk losing the big picture. • No political analogies, no messages about World Peace, just that life offers these incredible opportunities to live and love - even through a hedgerow. • Forageable Cornish plants, Samphire by the coast being one that interests me, and the endless wild plants, botanicals, and fascinating flowers used in distilling spirits; they are all ways of communing with our land. • P.S. @ wildfoodschool.com.uk/cornwall a free download identifies all the botanicals, plants, and flowers you may see on your daily rambles ... And if I get my cottage ... #RamblingRoseKernow, I'll add this to my list of new ways to connect with Great Britain and the #Cornish land ... 🏡🌿🍃🌱🌴 ⛵🌞🙏💐 • #WritersofInstagram #StJust #Cornwall #Hedges #Hedgerows #thegreatinthelittle #CornishRambles #wildforagesoflight #photoshop #pixlr #ScreenwritersofInstagram #Adventures #DevelopingLight #boltholes #PenwithHeritageCoast The photo I took while visiting the Abbey Gardens on Tresco, that inspired my recent video ... • #TrescoAbbeyGardens #IslesofScilly #ScreenwritersofInstagram #Editors #WritersofInstagram #Editors #gardens #tresco #inspiredbygod #benchsideinparadise #england🇬🇧 #writersbolthole #expatdreams #Video #inspiration #islandlife #doriensmith #genius
