Profile

Andrew Bailey
City: Ilfracombe
Country: United Kingdom
Joined: Jul 2009

Born in south London in 1943 and moved to Kent to avoid the flying bombs. Brought up in Kent and south London. Joined the RAF at 18 and was taught to be a photographer. Spent my working life in visual communications of one sort or another until I retired in 1990, aged 57, to look after the aged and doting.

Move to Devon in 1993 and retired properly. Still prepared my work for exhibition of which I have had four since 2000. Have written a glossary of photographic terms – a form of A5 sized dictionary for students and am trying to find an illustrator and publisher.

Remarried in 1998 in Manassas, Virginia to an opera singer and voice teacher whose voice could shatter glass at 100 yards. We live very happily in north Devon where she enjoys a studio of over 45 students of all ages.

Mobility impaired, I now take far fewer images than hitherto but have a library large enough that I needn’t pick up a camera for the rest of my life.. I will, of course. Feel free to drop me a line about anything you see or read.

Writing

A Bit Of A Rage

How noble! How worthy! / Clearly the object of his love / Was worthy of such language

Reminiscence

I’ve heard that you are writing now and hope / Your muse will serve you well in that you do / Create a piece that is worthy of your serious mind.

More Parallels

In my last journal entry, I mentioned parallel universes. Well, it appears they could exist. There is an award winning science programme which has run for many years on the BBCTV called Horizon and an…

A Bit Of Nonsense

Paint your own yellow brick road, / The young lady said. OK, I replied, here goes. / I opened a brand new tin of paint / And imagine my shocked surprise;

A Million Futures

How do we determine what it is / That makes us what we are? / The answer is that we don’t / For we are the sum / of all our experiences.

Untitled

It’s too early as he wakes up / with his eyes like lumps of dough, / so he thinks himself asleep again / and, when more time has passed / why then, he has another go. And I know just how he…
