Back From Barcelona

Just got back from an awesome few days in Barcelona. I was a bit slack on the photography front, but I got some that I am happy with. Will post more photos and words tomorrow. For now here is a photo of one of Gaudi's works - La Sagrada Familia.

Random Photo Post


MoreLondon - The Scoop
Told you they were random. Both taken on the commute home in the not so distant past ...

Updates

Hmmm. Things have been pretty quiet over here. The weekend was pretty laid back - perhaps a little too laid back. Was having a few drinks before heading out on Saturday nights, and managed to fall asleep on the couch. Didn't quite make it out in the end. This weekend maybe.
What else? Heard the Avalanches being played in Asda (think Woolworths/Coles/IGA). That was cool in a wierd "going back a long time" kind of way. And a photo opp that got away tonight - a guy standing on the train platform with a bunch of flowers in one hand, and a half empty bottle of beer in the other. Must know what he is in for when he gets home !! No new actual photos I am afraid though.

Sunny London

The passed week has been pretty cold in London, no, not capital C Canadian COLD, but still, cold. Frosty mornings with a couple of snow showers, not that any of it settled on the ground. Anyway, what I am getting around to saying is that the weekend has been beautifully sunny. Bulbs are starting to come up in the parks. Trees are budding. Could the end of winter be in sight. Lets hope so, although I have been told not to get my hopes up ....
Winter Sunshine
I took the above photo in one of the small streets in Soho. What I didn't realise until I walked a bit further on was that I was just on the edge of the seediest part, and just around the corner their were kind ladies with lewd offers propped up in doorways. I am lucky some guy didnt start abusing me for taking photos of the punters!

Trees

Laugh. I go in to central London to take some photos, and what do I take photos of trees! Not just any trees though ... trees on The Mall. Trees that lead to Buckingham Palace. Hmmm ... yeah ... they are still just trees I guess. Whatever.


The V Festival

The line up for the V Festival has probably been out for a while, but I only stumbled across it today - Radiohead, Morrissey, Beck, The Go! Team, Kasabian. Think I might have to be gettiny myself a ticket to that. Check it out here.

Tower Bridge ... Again

The new series of The Amazing Race started last night on US television. This is the series where they visit Perth in Western Australia, including Rottnest and the Fremantle Prison. Can't wait.
