The Things I saw #4

October 26, 2015 by Phil Kneen Photography

Since returning home last week, following a string of unfortunate incidents, things have begun to gradually improve… my ex-wife Helen told me they would, twice. My continuing stories about campsites in Spain, and their perpetual residents, has stirred-up quite a bit of interest… I’ve been contacted by a couple of agents who’d like me to go back to Benidorm and extend the story. I must admit that the idea of going back to that area wasn’t something I had planned… […]

Paradise, Never Found.

October 25, 2015 by Phil Kneen Photography

11th October, Benidorm, Spain – I talked to an Englishman called Tom, he was out walking his dog. Well, the dog was walking, he was riding a mobility scooter. Tom lives in a permanent caravan in the campsite next to the one I’m on. This is what Tom had to say (this is quoted, verbatim, and contains strong language) – “There’s an old Scottish woman living down on the same camp site you’re on, she did have a husband, but […]

Sun, Sea and Sanatogen

October 9, 2015 by Phil Kneen Photography

Friday 9th October, Armanello Campsite, Benidorm, Spain – We have arrived in what appears to be an alfresco geriatric home, God’s waiting room with the central heating turned-up full blast. Each ‘street’ here is named after a star sign – Calle Aries, Calle Tauro, etc. We’re at the far end of Calle Virgo which is, coincidently, my birth sign.

The things I saw #3

February 13, 2015 by Phil Kneen Photography

“If you were the last person on the planet, would you still take photographs?” – a musician turned that question on me after I’d asked the same question about her music, she said she wouldn’t, “what would be the point in playing music if there was nobody else to listen to it?” – well I had to disagree, I would continue to take photographs, because without sounding vain and conceited, I like looking at my own photographs. Yes, I love […]
