Fuzzer House 01

“Awww. Mess’n with me head, Butcher.”

“Blimey,” Butcher said back. He was opening a can of ten beans.

Fuzzer House looked larger from the inside. The Kniks, dressed up as Apricot-Bone, felt open and vulnerable. Like the door was open to the Broad Hinton house… and suddenly it was. Outside they saw a man walking a white dog, oblivious their exposed presence. Thank dog for the force field.

Jimmy stepped through the force field and out in the street. “Got a light, man?” he asked in his cocky Cockney way. For he desperately needed a fag.

“Blimey,” the man in the street walking his dog said. “Where’d you come from?”

“Where do you think mate?” Jimmy said, indicating with his head the Fuzzer House behind him. For his hands were busy lighting the fag after the man had handed him a cigarette lighter.

The man handed him a cigarette lighter.

“Blimey,” Butcher said back. The tin can of beans sealed itself up.

bakerblinker plays tag

I did a big LOL last night when reinvestigating Rockley in Wiltshire and finding out Brian Robert Marshall had provided links to my tinkerings with his photos in the captions of the originals I used for the “Baker Bloch in England” exhibit. He even gave me my own tag.

And I’ve also recently moved the full version of the exhibit to the rainbowology site:

Brian and I have since exchanged emails, and he’s granted me permission to use any of his photos for future art, and also asked me to tell him which ones I alter so that he can provide more links back to my work. I’m seeing an open door. 🙂

Actually, as I was checking I began to use Brian’s photos in this series of 3 collages coming just before the creation of the “Baker Bloch in England” set. Below I’ll give a link to Brian’s employed “base” photo just after the collage link. I’ll then include a related Baker Blinker Blog post link where I attempt an interpretation. All the base images come from Purton Stoke, Wiltshire just west of Swindon.

Sunfish, KY

All Sunfish, Kentucky is is a crossroads. And this is what I found less than a minute into the “visit” — very easy to spot in Streetview. It only appears in 1 shot, seen in the middle picture below. Otherwise the location is very nondescript.

I must ask you. Does that look like a flying sunfish?
