I'd like to think you'd like this snap

Man sitting on a bench by the river Thames in Twickenham minding the buggy of his grandchild who had gone off to get an ice-cream with his grandmother. It was hot.

I pride myself on my snappy snap titles. I'm not sure I'll ever better this one though. This snap has an aire of Jack Spencer don't you think? Bar the colour. And the subject matter. Other than that.

I was playing with the Voigtlander Perkeo which is such a fine little camera and can take some fine, sharp in-focus snaps in the right hands. Obviously, I don't mean mine. All the same I shall be taking this to the darkroom to print up on some dodgy paper, throw some wax on it when it's dry and hey presto I'll have a right old mess. I might even exhibit it. Eh? 
In my bathroom anyway.
