This Straight, this path, is the one we take every day going from the small dock to the St John the Baptist fort, you can see in the middle of the image.

As I shoot many of my images within a few miles of my home ( on an island) I appreciate the personal connection one can have with a familiar landscape, a friend, a part of oneself.
