14th - "Echoes"

Cheltenham, Glos

(from the 1971 album Meddle)

The idea of having a roomful of speakers (mmmmm, A Saucerful of Secrets/A Roomful of Speakers - I might be onto something here...) is definitely appealing, all the more so this month :o). Something tells me though the neighbours might object if I gave these puppies their full quota of the loud pedal.

I'm not going to even attempt to explain how I did this...suffice to say it took longer than I expected and I managed to burn dinner (salmon and couscous with a lovely crunchy salad) what with me so preoccupied with getting this right. Ahh, the sacrifices we make for our art! Still, I had Option B (plain water biscuits and cup of water) as a replacement; it was...umm...adequate :o(

Apologies, for some reason most of the EXIF has been stripped off...dunno why!

Wow, this is absolutely excellent. Perfect for this song (I wonder what "Echoes" would sound like with this set-up). I am enjoying both your images and descriptions in this challenge. "V"
