This is a song I recorded with my musical partner in crime Dom Di Dato. It’s by an Italian singer called Vinicio Caposella. I’m using the Youtube version because we’ve agreed to pass the royalties (if any) over to the original songwriter. We’re very happy to do that.
The images were all made on Dangar Island, Australia. The edit software is Philmora X, by Wondershare.

This is a song I made when I was much much younger. The singer is the wonderful Lizzy Hogan, Ric Grudzinskas played bass, George Sutanovic drums and Linz Norris and myself on guitars. I’ve been making low budget, lo-fi clips to post stuff on Youtube. The images are from my Street Art photo file.
The song is copyright J P Horsam/I M Hogan 1979-2021 as updated. Please refer to my About page for full copyright details regarding the photos.
I cant travel to get any photos at the moment so I’m making movies in my back garden.

I started to write the words for this song when I was on the school ferry home to Dangar Island. Nothing has changed there really, same old chaos.

I haven’t been out much in the last year…. I’ve done hardly any photography. However, I have been making lots of music. This is animated by Mel Anderson, some of her Tiny Folk. If you’re very observant you can see them going about their business. Most of them are very shy.
As anywhere in France, this city lets art flourish. It’s as much part of the culture as the amazing food. I was planning to be there about now, but alas…. no one’s going anywhere. I can dream. I’ll be back.
Here’s some street art…. as Michelin would say, Narbonne is well worth the detour.
Following the tragically early death of our dear old pooch Hairy, the house seemed quite empty. There was no one to remind us that it was dinner time, all the tasty scraps ended up in the compost bin.
What with COVID, it was very hard to adopt a dog, everybody wanted a new furry friend. We wanted to give a home to a rescue animal, help some old dude have a comfortable retirement.
We came across ‘Greyhounds As Pets’ https://www.gapnsw.com.au/
Wow! Now we have Honey, Lavender Sky to her racing fans. She’s 10, but doesn’t know it. She’s gorgeous… see for yourself!
Some more wonders of the Iron Age, from the UK this time.
I might add more text later, but the new WordPress post editor is a poorly thought out mess at the moment.
I think I’ve done enough now to count myself a true flaneur. That is, I enjoy an aimless stroll, especially in ancient cities like Paris. I love prowling the older streets…. left over from the rebuilding of the 1870s. Then again, there’s ‘the new’…. in this case, the beautiful cast iron work….
Feast your eyes!
I’ve always been fascinated by doors…. especially old ones. France is a doorhound’s paradise. Here’s a collection, from an ornate cathedral door (Limoges) to simple hole-in-the-wall arrangements.
There’s one from Exeter Cathedral (not in France!) that has an ancient cat door. It allows the cathedral cats to get into the organ loft to deal with the mice in there.
