Distant Echoes

DISTANT ECHOES by James Bengel
Here is a book of poetry and images that is guaranteed to drive away all your blues.
It is a must buy for all black and white photography buffs and for all poetry enthusiasts.
His sensitivity and philosophy is truly admirable.


I must have read it innumerable times and yet everytime I pick it up I find it refreshing.
One of my favorite poem is 'I am not dreaming' The 1st verse is:

I don't remember dreams
But if I did
I would remember the one
Where I stand on the beach
Scanning the ocean
Just beyond the breakers
Where the riptides don't reach
Where the swells are steep
Where you are.
.........
