Library

The sculpture shooting off into the sky like a rocket on it’s launchpad, piercing through the atmosphere as a a giant metallic ring encloses it. The repetitive lines of the glass windows, each a slightly different texture and contrast of grey. The roof of the building rising in a diagonal arc to the point where the sunlight catches it with a shining crescendo. This is one of my favourite photo’s I have taken, I’m not big on architectural photography but having seen plenty of examples I’d say maybe, MAYBE, this is an ok one itself.

Dome of St Peters Basilica

This is what greets you after around 300-400 odd spiralling, narrowing, horrendous steps when you climb to the top of St Peters Basilica in the Vatican, another 100 odd and you’re on top of it.

Another one from my trip to Rome a few weeks ago,

Marble Columns

Marble columns with a rope laying across them, in the Colosseum in Rome. Taken on my Nikon FM with 28mm on Agfa Vista Plus 200 ISO film at f4 1/250th sec.

Ogmore Castle

This the last post in a series across this week of the Ogmore River, the other two can be found here and here, and this time it’s of the ruined castle itself that sits next to the river. The photo below was taken on my Nikon FM with 28mm on Ilford FP4 125 ISO film at f11 1/125th sec.

St Ederyn’s Church

Penarth Pier Sundown

It’s been a month since I started this blog, woohoo go me for actually sticking something out for once, and as that’s the case I thought I’d do something a little different.

Abandoned Rail Line

I have a particular fondness for abandoned places, whether that be areas, buildings, vehicles, or in this particular case railways.
