Natural Silhouettes


I've been really fascinated by the outlines and shapes that trees form against the sky recently. This winter-battered tree at Fountains Abbey, North Yorkshire really appealed to me. It was a freezing day and the sky was cruel, the tree looked like it's resolve was about to break and I pitied it.

Just off Tottenham Court Road. Not much to say, it just appealed and reminded me of all the light effects I saw in Shanghai. Glad to see London is embracing architectural lighting.

Window art


Spot the difference? I don't know whether this window was bricked up due to the window tax a couple of hundred years ago, but I love what they've done!

Pretty architecture feature down Euston way


What is a horrendously dull civic building is made a little more magical by LEDs impregnated into the walls.
