Depending on the tide

and the illumination

the irresistible South Pier

renews a Blackpool barcode

giant mirror ball (art installation) on Blackpool prom against sunset over Irish Sea backdrop
ball on a stick jm

day in day out local folk

look up to the sun turn down

behind the horizon and the Jupiter

of all glitter balls spins electric

same sunset 11th day 11th month silhouettes of people gazing across sea near ball on a stick
is it goin' to be any good? jm

humdrum as locals whirr

like the clockwork Dunlins

clip clip keigherrr

another silhouetted Oyster Catcher

same sunset single silhouette figure texting fone exactly in line with setting sun
texinsun jm

affirms the North West ahrr

in awe of the latest uncountable set

of a squillion snaps in Sky Blue Red

cameras out number tweets

more people in silhouette gather beneath mirror ball as sun dips further down
localspointview jm

seagulls drown out cheeps

Blackpool balls are allus big

coz the Ballrooms 're biggur

The Empress surpassing the lot

the light fades yet more turning to dark orange mirror ball looks even more solid in the dark

Wider longer better sprung

than the BBC's Strictly Come

even flashier than the BBC'

Ferris on the Central Pier

sun well below horizon not much orange mirror ball very dark seems to shine a street light is lit picture left
senset mirrorball lampost jm

lowerd eyes mist with cheer

that snap may pay for a beer

there's nothing else

strictly speaking

old safety chain on beach ramp resembles a cross against evening sky for rememberence day

Your paint club looks like a nice idea Alice Munro-Hainsworth I work in a different way but if you are not too far away I could come over to say hello. I'm not after a job I'm free-lance. ??
