Sculpture 10

 

May you tread the maze | with your fingers following | labyrinthine lanes

Peter Randall-Page’s Between the Lines 2007

Abstract 9: roof tiles

Roofs in Great Chesterford, Essex, provide a multiplicity of patterns.

Portals 15

A selection of exuberant window displays in the Ritz, Piccadilly, London in early 2013, taken with a Blackberry mobile.

Signs 4

Road sign, Fishguard, Pembrokeshire

Lack of punctuation and thoughtless word layout renders this message ambiguous; if I were a parent here I’d be worried about the implied slur on my offspring!

Vista 2

Another vista from Bristol’s Cabot Circus shopping complex, framing an older landmark on the skyline.
This one shows a more distant view of the University School of Physics building, seen through a gap in the glass-panelled roofs.

Abstract 8

monochrome study
now a contradiction when
golden rectangle?

20th-century wall, office development, Bell Lane (right)

Bad neighbours? Or good?

Portals 14

Newgale Beach caves, Pembrokeshire, Wales

Where is the portal, you may ask?

Shadows 2

nameless gravestones stand
behind bars, monumental
masonry unowned

Reflections 12

Spectrum House, Bond Street, Bristol

When first erected this was one of the first ultramodern glass-fronted structures, heralding a Brave New World for a city still blemished by World War II bomb sites.

Our family just called it the Cloud Factory.

Stone head 9

Medieval head (of angel?), Treasury Museum,
St Davids Cathedral, Pembrokeshire
