Strategy

Captured in an art gallery in a side street in Bodegas-Real. It was a large chess board (approx. 1 m squared) with statues of young boys holding weapons in a guerilla fashion. Shame I didn't take down the artist's  or gallery's name.

Doorways

Down an alleyway beside the main church in Nerja, a pleasantly framed entrance.

In the trees

Below: Two very different angles of the great trees in the middle of The Circus in Bath. The first one makes me think of Roald Dahl's The Minpins.

First shadows of summer

Back in April 2010, the University of Bath's Visual Arts Society (website, facebook) started their end of year project, unofficially titled "graffiti wall", with guidance from visual artist Deborah Jones. Below: Boards to make up the graffiti wall are primed in the early summer sun.

Caffeine glands

The way to a man's heart may be through his stomach, but the way to an engineer's heart is through his caffeine glands... perhaps thats just me. A sweet danish pastry to go with it helps too.

Zone of tranquility

Exams begin in less than a week. Days are getting longer, and the revision more frantic. In order to retain our sanity, my friends and I have created a 'zone of tranquility' where we can go to regroup when it all gets too much. What you can't see are the Bose noise cancelling headphones to make sure you really shut the rest of the world out.
