Cerne Abbas Walk 1975
Ink, typescript, photograph on map
The South Dorset map has particular significance to me as I have travelled quite a lot of the minor roads by bicycle and car many years ago.

The Cerne Abbas Giant is a remarkable entity!

I went back to Tate Modern on September 17th to see the newly opened Picasso exhibition just across the corridor so visited the Richard Long show again.

I had the DSLR camera with me so did a couple of composite image shots of the Norfolk Flint Circle, just for fun!

I also made a short video:- Today's video...and discovered the 'red line' that I had guessed probably existed!
