Have you ever seen a fungus like this before? It's so purple! Amethyst Deceiver (Laccaria amethystina), Twmbarlwm:
Current W.I.P.s: GNS3
Twmbarlwm ~ tis the season
At certain times of the year, around about this time, in fact, the field behind this fence offers keys to the world of faery. Despite seeing numerous excited travellers step across this threshold, I kept their anonymity intact by keeping the lens of my camera focused elsewhere. After-all, it is not as though photographic opportunities are in short supply in Twmbarlwm...
Someplace Different - Twmbarlwm
With my short story Gobble having been published 39 days ahead of schedule, I have found myself with over 5 weeks of free 'creative time'. I am not too sure where I will be going with this, or if the proposed series of fotozines/guides this project may open up has any legs but, ay, let's have some fun with this...
Gobble is off to the publisher!
Gobble, the third tale in my forthcoming portmanteau novel Solstice has now been sent off to the publisher and should be available for purchase as a paperback and kindle book sometime over this forthcoming weekend :)

Another day, another Pop Funko horror figure shot. I've adden a second pic to this post too, taking a step back to show how the pic was taken. It's time to show off The Creeper:
Halloween Funko 21 #1
Well, it looks like it is that time of year again. So let's get cracking with 2021's horror pop funko pics, starting with Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula!
Wind & Rain/Martham
And here is a fairly lengthy field recording I made of the wind and rain from the bathroom of our holiday let - headphones recommended:
A last walk around Martham
Friday, October 1, 2021
Our last day in Martham before we return home was a chilled one, spent meandering around the river near our holiday letter. A beautiful, chilled day to end our vacation.

I will miss this place...
Norwich Market Chill-Zone
I am happy to report that I passed this covid-anxiety test - negotiating the busy labyrinthine stalls of Norwich Market, purchasing food there and eating it in the public square.
😊
And if you want to experience more of the ambience of Norwich Market or, more specifically, the chill-zone overlooking the market, don a pair of your finest headphones and have a listen to this little 6 minute field recording I made at the time of taking the above photographs:
Dippy in Norwich Cathedral
I really could not visit Norwich without taking the opportunity afforded to me to see Dippy the dinosaur, which is currently being exhibited in the city cathedral. There seems something very ironic about seeing a dinosaur being celebrated in a place of Christian worship though...
After way too long of a gap, I have finally started field recording again. As before, you will need to use a pair of decent quality headphones to really appreciate the audio in the video below:

A strange light appeared in the sky tonight as we drove along the quiet country lanes on the Norfolk Broads.

So unfamiliar was its appearance that talk within the car naturally turned to UFOs, the conversation fuelled by Twitter, which was ablaze with talk and images of the object (or similar objects) that had been spotted right across Britain and Europe. What the hell was going on?
Perhaps not quite so exciting as visitors from another planet, this was still a fairly rare and exhilarating sighting in UK skies and we were all excited by the unusual event.
Norfolk Holiday - a particularly cool close to the day
I thought this crow brought a particularly cool close to my third day on the Norfolk Broads:
