This is another of today’s pictures. This is one side of the surprisingly large site that’s been cleared for the Eldon Square North redevelopment. There’s not a lot to see at the moment, but no doubt frameworks and walls will start rising soon.

On Friday, I had one of my lunchtime walks with the camera. My main target was the Newcastle City Library construction site, where I took some more record shots of the progress of the work. I’ll be posting those later, but I thought I’d make a start with this one of some pigeons who seemed […]

This is one of this morning’s pictures from my walk to work. It shows the High Level Bridge, finally revealed again after a couple of years hiding behind white wrappings, with the Swing Bridge in front. You might just be able to make out the blue structure of the Metro Bridge hiding behind the High […]

The Vampire Bunny is one of those things I have to keep going back to. I keep going for different exposures, different angles, different lenses, different… well, anything to try and capture the Bunny properly.

Almost three years ago, I mentioned that the High Level Bridge was being restored, and I referred to the fact that the job turned out to be a bigger one than first expected. Well, for a long time, quite apart from being closed, the whole bridge was covered in white sheets, so it was impossible […]

The basic framework of the new library is really taking shape now. This picture was taken from the upper level of Princess Square and shows some nifty machinery at work. It’s not as dramatic as the demolition, but it’s still worth a regular visit to see what’s happening. I’m planning to keep going back for […]

This is another shot from yesterday’s walk home. It shows the tower of All Saints Church from the approach to the Tyne Bridge.

Today’s picture is one from last Thursday’s lunchtime walk. It’s a detail of some graffiti on a wall behind Newcastle Central Station.

These are two versions of the same picture, with slightly different cropping and tweaking. I like the coloured floodlights on the stone of the upper floors of Northern Goldsmiths, and that’s what I was trying to capture. Now getting a long enough exposure to show off the stone meant that the much brighter light from […]

Well, it’s a bit early, but it is nearly December, so I suppose I might as well post this one.
