Floor to ceiling


Panorama-rama...

Step into my office


Living in Vauxhall means coming across building site after building site, including this abandoned one still welcoming visitors into a non-existent office...

(And by the by, the light along the Thames is always so piercing! Not sure how or why, but it was on form today!)

Penchant for pelicans




...and coyotes! I recently visited the Natural History Museum to see the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition and was blown away by the photographs! This image shot by Martin Cooper was my absolute favourite and I ended up taking it home with me (a copy that is...)

Some more favourites:

Up up and away

An old obsession revisited: panoramas! But the whole left to right or right to left thing bores me, so I went up, up and around instead...

Peek a boo

I'm such a sucker for Ugly Ducklings so when I saw this one peeking out from under the covers I couldn't resist a snap...

New year, new chances?

OK, a slightly somber way to start the year... but you can look at these photo's in one of two ways: 


A genuine go at making a port a bit more merry, or an empty attempt to lift the city's spirits?

It's merely a shred of paper, but which do you see first? The bright spot or the dark depths?

Is the statue watching over the city defensively, or ignorantly looking into the distance at the fiery sunset?


I'll be making a concerted effort to see more bright spots this year...
