Rainbow
I don’t remember taking this, nor do I recognise where it was taken from, but a pretty find…

Looking Either Way
Looking East we could see the Brighton Palace Pier and the Marina beyond. Looking West we saw some of the many amusements along the beach, again with reflections I could only partially clean up.
Regency Square
As the i360 began to rise, we had a view of Regency Square and other nearby streets. Unfortunately the curved glass saucer shape of the chamber made it impossible to banish all the reflections.
Brighton, Dusk
The last of the dusk’s murmuration before the starlings all dove beneath the pier to roost.
Dawn Breaks
Beach Huts
There’s just something about a line of beach huts and the sea and sky…
Summer Solstice
On June 21st we walked along the shore to Hove to see the sunset. (Click to see them full screen.)
Vista
San Diego Panorama
We walked back from Barrio Logan and I took this panorama along the way with more shots of abandoned and/or liminal spaces along the way.

Urban Exoticism
I recently entered a competition on “Urban Exoticism.” From my archive I found 76 images I considered candidates, but only 5 could be submitted. Over the next few days I’ll share some of those that didn’t make the cut.

Brighton Dusk
View from the Oval
I had the great good fortune and honour to be invited to spend the first day of the September Test match between Surrey and Durham at the Oval, Surrey’s stadium (Surrey won by 10 wickets in only 3 days, retaining their title for a third year). The day included a tour of the historic stadium, its museum and library, and a visit to the roof, with its splendid views of London (see panorama above). Throughout the stadium are artworks depicting famous players and moments from its history, including the group portrait below.
