A Record of Fear

As if all that Grizedale excitement wasn't enough last weekend this Sunday I got to visit Orford Ness a trip I've wanted to make for years ... These images were taken there - it's Europe's largest vegetative shingle spit (!) and site of secret military activity from 1913 into the Cold War.

I went to see artist Louise K Wilson's excellent sound work A Record of Fear which as was fantastic as the site was interesting. Have a look at the other photos on Flickr and try to imagine the lighthouse completely painted in camouflage during the war.
