Another nice morning and a sunny day followed. Off we all go to work in our various ways — or possibly, come home again.

As a few recent photos have suggested, we are entering a good time of year for dramatic skies. I like the NGI building, it somehow matches its main host substance — which I guess is the point, architecturally. Well, my employers have spent enough on it, so it’d better be good I suppose….

The day was a largely pleasant one but there was just something autumnal about the morning, a crispness in the air that foretells the cold to come.
