Mr. Sagittarius: Poetry and Prose

By M.J. Mallon

Who is Mr. Sagittarius? And what is his connection to twin brothers Harold and William? When Harold dies he leaves a simple memorial request. Will his sister Annette honour it? Or, will the magic of the garden ensure that she does. A magical story expressed in poetry and prose with photographic images inspired by the beautiful botanical gardens in Cambridge.

It's a light-hearted, magical tale which celebrates many aspects of day-to-day life touching upon humour, sibling relationships, beauty, nature, the seasons of the year, love and ultimately magic.

I love spending time in the botanical kingdom taking photos - my favourite photos in this collection are the robin, trees and the dragonfly that grace this little book.

Photography is in my genes - Both my uncle and grandfather were photographers. My grandfather A.G. Ingram was originally with the photography company Ingram, Gordon & Co in Haddington up until the mid thirties. Then he ventured on his own to form the Scottish Pictorial Press in Edinburgh supplying photos to the press. When war broke out Scottish Pictorial Press became defunct. After the war he started AG Ingram Ltd, Commercial Photographers, at three successive locations in Edinburgh, Scotland.

The photographic images are copyright to me, apart from two images kindly given by Alex Marlowe - a talented photographer.
