Norfolk Landscape Photography "Midwinter stream"
This tiny part of the waterways in the county is really as much a part of the Norfolk Broads as places like Ranworth and Barton Broad. December, the week before christmas and as the rest of Norfolk scurried around doing their christmas shopping I headed out into the sticks. This shot was taken near Burgh next Aylsham church on the Brampton side of the bridge . There had been a frost the night before and then in the morning the whole area had been engulfed in mist. Then as I stood there the sun briefly broke through to bathe this scene in warm light. It was a one in a million chance, what a bit of luck. It looks as beautiful on paper as it did on that morning.

I was amazed to hear about the fate of paintings of nudes by John Vesty, that had been on display at the council offices in Cromer. They have been taken down following complaints from staff. Of the pictures I have seen, none were remotely obscene and they seem to be nudes as traditionally painted throughout history. Is this is another case of political correctness gone mad ? Some of the paintings have already been found a new place for display, in a gallery in West Street. Lets hope the political correctness police don't stick their noses into this gallery!
Sadly it seems that political correctness has infiltrated every aspect of our lives.
