The kids return to Ham House; their father does not return, having never actually been there before

In case anyone was wondering, we do actually have students on this trip:

















Richmond, River:

















A couple of pictures of the Parkins, our program co-directors:














Jeff insists that we only get him from the back side















Country life (benches, lunch...):

















The way that humans were really meant to bathe:

















Match cut:
















We do really have students here, pt. 2:

By the way, this was the softest, nicest grass we have ever laid upon!

















Stately houses:


















Frame:
























Contiguous space, or that shot from Carl Dreyer's Vampyr, in 1932, or an echo of that other shot in Miklos Janscso's The Red and The White, from 1967, or Hunter P. and Jeff were talking an awful lot about ghosts ...

Parkin's phone app; a certain chill, right exactly here...

















Another bit of family history/resonance!
