Architecture – Page 3

Just found these 2 images lingering on the chip in an older camera. The interaction of sunlight with this building at the end of our street in Brighton, housing the Department of Work and Pensions and a Job Centre (most of whose workers seemed to spend a lot of their time taking smoke breaks directly under our windows), often stuck me as offering photographic possibilities, though I never captured them.

New York Public Library – Stephen A Schwarzman Building

This is one of the ceilings in the main public library on 42nd Street and Fifth Avenue. Remarkably for one who’s lived in NY for over 60 years, and whose birth was announced in the library’s employee newsletter, I’d never been inside before doing some research a week or so ago in the Division of Art, Prints and Photographs.

Royal Pavilion

I posted pictures already from our day visiting inside the Royal Pavilion but it wasn’t till some days later that I happened to have this outside view from the Old Steine.

Chichester still boasts an encircling Roman wall which has been restored with a walking path – After our time in the cathedral we completed the short, 1½-mile circuit.
