Miscellaneous travel pictures

Hola Barcelona!

A selection of shots taken over five days in the amazingly diverse city of Barcelona. Images feature Mercat de Sant Josep, Las Ramblas, Port Olimpic, Parc Güell and Font Màgica

Here and There

Moments of varying inspiration from various travels, mostly abroad (i.e. mostly there, not here), from the last 2 years or so

Featuring France, Italy, Greece, Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic (sounds like Eurovision...), Ireland, England, Russia, China (and Mongolia from a plane!)

Cathedrals and Cocktails

A collection of shots taken on day-trips:

*Edinburgh Fringe Festival including some dancing Irish guys and The Caberet of Menace

*A sparing few of the Bullring in Birmingham. And Spongebob. I'm hoping to go back again soon and turn these into a larger album...off the Bullring that is...not Spongebob...

* A day out in York, several hours of which were spent clicking manically in the Minster, visited my favourite cocktail spot 'Evil Eye'. Lovely colours, better cocktails. I've also played around with the contrasts on a few more generic shots with some good results - apologies to the purists...

*Liverpool in the mist. A beautiful city at the best of times, but cloaked in mist it takes on a unique ambience. Another great cocktail bar here - Alma de Cuba, converted from an old church with much of the 1700's interior restored.

* A day out in Chester and several shots of the Cathedral and surrounding city. Beautiful place.

Beach

A selection of photography from many taken during a New Year's Day expedition to Camber Sands in an old London tour bus. The reflections on the beach when the sun was still low were beautiful. A lovely place to click, eat picnic food wrapped in Union Jack napkins and shakily open that first hair-of-the-dog bottle of Stella Artois!

Colour & Form - Costa Rica

Inspired by a series of photographs taken by a friend, this is the third set in my series of photos of eye-catching colours, shapes and textures. The intention is that the subject of each photo should not be instantly recognisable, but appreciated for the patterns and forms contained.
