As long as they gaze on Waterloo sunset

They are in paradise.

—-”Waterloo Sunset,” The Kinks

Here is my first official Waterloo Sunset of 2008. Yes, my obsession has continued into the New Year. I’ve been down to Waterloo Bridge several times in the past few weeks, but the sun was hiding from me until today. I’ve decided to number my Waterloo Sunsets for 2008 and give them titles. I’ve called this one “Ink Stained.” The sky looked inky today and I thought, given my crippling writer’s block, it was a fitting title.

The wind was so strong on the bridge that I almost dropped my camera into the Thames, but it was worth it. Gazing on Waterloo Sunset always makes me feel better. I still can’t write, but I feel a little bit more alive.

Tomorrow I’ll post about Paris!

   So Lúghnasadh (pronouced loo’nass’ah) was denied your votive camera offering? Lugh (London is named after him) is a Celtic god of fire and light.

   Self-doubt is the body’s way of telling you to buy chocolate, don’t toss the camera.
