M-m-m-My Corona part 14.

 

Eye test? Check.
Car serviced? Check
Flu jab? Check.
Loo rolls & hand sanitizer secret stash? Check.

Okay. Bring it on.

In all honesty I’ve pretty much remained in lock-down. Those times I have ventured forth for simple things like a local beer or coffee, getting told where to stand, where to sit, and being asked for contact details, just takes all the pleasure out of it. I understand the necessity, and I comply with the rules, but I don’t want to remember some of my favourite haunts that way. And I won’t.

Making sure I don’t become permanently bonded to either the sofa, the doorstep, the CD collection, the paintbrush, or the TV remote, during these months, my daily routine starts with a brisk stride around the block. It’s this which has reignited my love of photography. So, m-m-m-My Corona weeks ahead may well see me pursuing this one-time “hobby” a little more.

The idea for the nine squares format came from a piece I made a long time ago.
