it’s that time of year

2921. Ashley Hill

I cannot think how many times I have driven past this amazing pizza piece by Feek at the bottom of Ashley Hill, but I have never taken a moment to photograph it. This particular picture is pretty terrible… not only is is rather shaded, but I took it from the car window because I am lazy. Not ideal.

Shutter pieces are not easy so this crystal clear and fun piece by Feek is a bit of a triumph. It is pieces like this one that Bristolians take completely for granted. It is there, it has always been there, that is the way of things. Personally I think that this is rather special, the vegetables are amazing and the animated pizza character is brilliantly painted. At last I get to post it!

Downside summer

 

Scorched earth allotment

courgette plants and beans withered;

prolonged dry weather.

Old sly

 

Planting out on the

allotment being watched; I

turn, he slinks away.

Seed selection

 

Killing time, waiting

for the rain to stop, choosing

what seeds to plant next.
