So Much Depends

It seems that every time I see a wheelbarrow that line from William Carlos Williams' poem 'The Red Wheelbarrow' rolls into my mind: 'So much depends upon...' And so on.

My son's crèche is opposite the back of the local church. Recently I've noticed men working in the parking area there, perhaps repaving. I kept an eye out, because the wall, with its life-size crucifixion, provides an interesting background. I initially included one of the workmen in my shot. Then I realised that the simpler image is more effective. Picasso's bull's head/bicycle seat sculpture comes to mind. Sometimes when there is less to work with one makes more interesting connections.
