I haven’t been able to find a name for this phenomenon: it’s a kind of rainbow, clearly, but it wasn’t and hadn’t been raining. Instead there was a slight sea fret or haar, which I believe happens when warm moist … Continued

Duvet day

If this journal is a record of my day, this is the image that most represents it: duvet, shakti mat, kindle, glasses, and phone. There’s a hot water bottle under that duvet too, but I hesitate to show you the … Continued
