And another thing...​

Sometimes good things happen

​I am honest enough to know that I have a rather negative disposition when it  comes to how my photography is received, but sometimes good things happen and its important to recognise this. Last year I posted this photo to twitter. 
Picture
It is a scene familiar to residents of Worcester because you see it at the junction of the M5 motorway  - the exit for Worcester - and it is visible from miles away. So when you see it, it's a signpost that you are nearly home.  This struck a chord with some local people and one of them - Karen Gregor is a producer for the BBC. She decided to make a radio program about it. You can listen to it here:

It's not everyone that can claim to have inspired a radio program. It has also taught me about how photos connect with people on a personal level. More on that later.
