The tree outside Caroline’s house

Friday 13th February 2015, 10.20pm (day 1,268)

Caroline's tree, 13/2/15

Night out in Leeds to celebrate the birthday of our friend Caroline, will she let me tell you which number birthday it was? Ends in a zero, anyway. This tree sits outside her house, snapped it late on. I like the windows of the houses at the bottom which give it some added interest.

On Mount Fløyen

Wednesday 4th February 2015, 4.30pm (day 1,259)

Mount Fløyen, 4/2/15

If in doubt for something to do in Bergen (and you’ve finished work for the day), take the funicular and come up here. This is Fløyfellet’s second appearance on the blog, the first being well over three years ago (27th Nov 2011), and the second shot in a row of a snowy Norwegian scene with a vaguely supernatural element.

On Watch Hill, 24/1/15

Time for a walk. Watch Hill is near Cockermouth, Cumbria. This is my Zen landscape shot. More will appear on my walking blog in due course (probably tomorrow).

Up In the gutter

Tuesday 25th November 2014, 1.25pm (day 1,188)

Drain clearing, 25/11/14

Yes, this really is as exciting as it got today. Looking for the good in all, I quite like the orange jackets against the brown November background, but I spent most of the day at home working and there wasn’t much to see.

National Graphene Institute

Monday 10th November 2014, 9.25am (day 1,173)

Graphene Institute, 10/11/14

The NGI is still under construction and is the building to the right of this image. The background is formed by the George Kenyon Hall of residence, which last appeared on the blog fairly recently, on day 1,133 (1/10/14).

The George Kenyon Building (and another tree)

Wednesday 1st October 2014, 9.35am (day 1,133)

Kenyon building, 1/10/14

September was balmy and mild, though not necessarily graced by good light, at least, not where I have been for the last couple of weeks. The first morning of October made up for this, however. Yes, OK, it’s another ‘tree on campus’ shot, but autumn’s here, expect more of this kind of stuff.

Tree and gate

Friday 22nd August 2014, 9.30am (day 1,093)

Tree and gate, 22/8/14

Maybe it would be a better shot if it was just the tree, or just the gate. But it’s what it is. Last day of a week spent mostly at home.

Scaffolding and tree

Thursday 20th February 2014, 11.10am (day 910)

Tree and scaffolding, 20/2/14

Another campus scene. I am reminded of that Terry Gilliam short film at the beginning of Monty Python’s The Meaning of Life, when a Victorian office building swathed in scaffolding like this sets sail as the covers billow out in the wind. Does the hole spoil it? Maybe, but I left it in anyway.
