Tik-Tok?
This fellow was actually sitting in the department store window display, reading something on his phone.

Our last day for roaming the archives, this shot is from September 2009.

September 2009, another tree and wall portrait.
Dance Class
Castle Keep
We had visitors from the US staying with us in the middle of August so we walked up to Farnham Castle again. Ever since the Magritte Museum in Brussels, I’ve been photographing sky through windows and over rooftops.
Duplex
This is a slightly disorienting view but it’s no more than the view from the top of a staircase, showing 2 stories of this local gallery.
Bales of Hay
A fitting close to our trip to Paris: a photo of bales of hay taken out the window of the EuroStar on the French side of the Channel.
Farnham to Paris
We got home from Edinburgh on a Friday evening. Monday morning we set off for London and then on to Paris for a few days, where 25-years earlier we had celebrated our honeymoon.
National Museum of Scotland
Our last morning we toured the National Museum of Scotland. Naturally, most of my photographs were about the geometry of the space and less about the exhibits themselves. As ever, click on any of the pictures below to see them at full size (clicking the post title first if that doesn’t work for you in email or on social media).
Scottish Parliament
At the base of Arthur’s Seat we toured the Scottish Parliament, a striking set of buildings with an interesting architectural history, only opened by the Queen in 2004 following the establishment of the parliament in 1999.

Edinburgh Still Life
I also shot a couple of still-lifes, reflected self portraits and other items along the way. Click any of the pictures below to see them bigger (clicking into the post or post title first, if that doesn’t work).
Museum Spaces
No visit to a museum would be complete without a review of the geometry of the spaces. Click any of the pictures below to see them full sized (you may need to click the post title first if you’re not seeing this directly on the web-site).

FOMU, FOto MUseum, Antwerp
Once again, I’m struck by the architecture, the geometry, and the use (or absence) of colour in contemporary museums, almost more than by the photography I went to see.
