This was a photo I took in Wellington. I was staying with my son in a million dollar new build on Mt Victoria and this was taken from an upstairs balcony looking across the harbour. In the immediate foreground their was a long building, used for rented rooms I think and then a brief view of the harbour water line taking us to the motorway on the other side of the harbour. Something happened with the time lapse and hence the squiggly lights. I went into paint on the internet to write (using the mouse) or on some occasions typing the poem lines. I took a full day of working on. I named it Cat on a Hot Tin Roof because of the roof I describe. Was lots of fun. But I love choosing a picture and then going into paint to write a poem. Same as the one with my little great-grandaughter and her lovely blue wheelbarrow. I should be in bed asleep as I had an eye injection today and I’ve been on the computer such a lot I can’t be giving the eye the rest it needs. Lovely to have a catch up. Much love to you Irina.

Very impressive, Benita! How on earth did you manage to create this visual poem?

So in some ways Irina it was totally a camera error that gave me the opportunity.
