Here is a link to a book: link

I know the author and although the photography isn't as inspired as yours it shows that there would clearly be a market for something similar.
Ken,

You'd have seen the train sculpture at page xiv of that book - what a ripper! It's a shame about the wire netting to the sides of the 'locomotive', keeping out birds probably.

Who did Ancient Greek at school? The Odes of Horace and all that stuff?

Anyone?
One of the few fragments I remember is about ostracism. That came from the Greek word for the potshards the people inscribed with the names of those they wished to banish for a finite period, for reasons real or imagined - majority rules, held annually (I think?), and woe betide anyone who tried to sneak back in. They stationed guards on the shore, to alert the polis about anyone who so dared...

The Greek word for those potshards I believe may have been ostrakha...

Roy,

Like Graham, I use centre point on the Kx, works fine - as does the 50-135 which is SDM.

Perhaps teh answer to your question is - 'hundreds & thousands' (the coloured sprinkles they have put on top)?

That sounds like a themed local exhibition coming up for you then, as Andrew suggested.

I'm thinking that you wouldn't be Robinson Crusoe there Pauly!

Certainly like the colours Fr Ted - both the sky and the foreground.

This might be the only time I will get to see the insides of one of these Dave, so great to see. Thank you.

PS - Why was the discussion around the centre panel (looks like the master cautions?), as you've outlined with the pink highlighter?
