If You Don’t have a Mollusc
take a tunic.
This is a Roman statue, partially preserved, from the Carrawburgh Temple of Mitras site (that’s part of Hadrian’s Wall). The head might be gone but his chiton can still be seen. Chitons were garments clasped on one shoulder, worn by ancient Greeks and Romans.

Four Romans and a Cat

A Window with A View and a House with Trees
I’ve shared this shot before – but how could I not with this brief? The lighthouse of Roker Beach in Sunderland.
And here the same window – just to show what difference the right angle, different lighting and a different focus can do.
And now for something completely different: A white house hiding behind green trees.

A Clear View
I keep coming back to this room for its view. It’s in Sunderland overlooking Roker Beach with the Roker lighthouse in the back.
Directly on the beach is a different window – the way marker for the C2C route which is a cycling route from coast to coast, or sea to sea, from Workington in the west to Sunderland in the east. It is shaped like a camera aperture – a window we are all very familiar with if we use (or have used) actual cameras.
