This is the one from 2010 I remember best, and I want to be careful here, because the notebook only gives it a line: right boot, brown, one lace in, moor edge, photograph didn't come out.
What I remember — and this is memory, not record — is coming up onto Deer Hill edge with the light doing summat over towards Wessenden, and the boot sat facing out across the valley. I didn't write any of that down. In 2010 I didn't think that sort of thing were mine to write. I sat by it a while, longer than the entry suggests.
I've made me peace with the photograph. It's a crackin' spot, Deer Hill, boot or no boot.
Written up August 2026, from the notebook.
