Amongst the responses to "Beating the bounds" came an email from someone whose opinion I value, who disagreed with my separation of "observation" and "people watching" pictures.
“I was interested in the 'boundaries' post, and saw boundaries in the conversation triptych too, but not so much visual ones as interpersonal ones.”
Which is interesting, and I hope to hear more. It has helped to keep me wearing the boundary spectacles, and seeking to see outside the boundaries of my vision, when looking at what I do...
The same person also sent me an intriguing poem written by his daughter, which envisaged a fence not only as a boundary but as “a gateway of sorts” – which has drawn me into a whole new territory of introspection and bounds beating, not to mention pulling down Ursula K Le Guin's Threshold from the bookshelves yet again.
