Summer in Film (I)
There's something about film photos. About their texture, their colors, their grain, their everything. They are perfectly imperfect. There's also something about the waiting, for me specially I reckon. I usually wait a long time to develop my film pictures, not for any particular reason but my usual distraction. It takes me ages to take the reels to the photo shop, and some more ages to pick them up. In the meantime I usually forget what's on the reels, so when I finally got the photos I end up with a handful of surprises.
Some photos arrive just in time to color your day with beautiful memories. Some photos are like a delayed mini epiphany that arrive a little too late and that's part of their perfect imperfection.
Well, I said too much, except that this photos belong to the gorgeous towns of Sidmouth, Lyme Regis and Durdle Door in the wonderful West Country in England.
PS: I know that I took one too many photos of that Mr. Whippy, but come on, look at it, is the most beautiful ice-cream ever, isn't it?

West Country Tour (II): Sidmouth










Once again, accordng to our friend Wiki, Sidmouth is a small town is a small town on the English Channel coast in Devon, South West England. The town lies at the mouth of the River Sid in the East Devon district, 15 miles (24 km) south east of Exeter.
Sidmouth is the town where some of my new English friends were born. A lovely town in the Jurassic Coast of England. This past week they had a Folk Festival and we went to have a look Friday night and Saturday morning and it was lots of fun, based on hog roast, pub chanting, Folk dances, walks on the beach and lots of cider. Totally recommended.
