Queen Victoria

Statue of Queen Victoria - Bradford, UK. I'd be interested if any visitor could explain more about the figure on the orb in her left hand.

National Museum of Photography, Film and Television

Outside the NMPFT in Bradford is a "sculpture". It is a series of thick glass sheets. This is one photo of it.

Bradford was laughed at many years ago when it set up a "Tourism Office". But it worked wonders.

Bradford - "A Surprising Place".

I was so sad though when Bradford got rid of its Tourism Officer.

Many of the pictures I post are from within the Bradford area.

The current series is from Bradford City centre.

painted pillar box

I'm sure the Royal Mail still do empty this painted post box in Bradford but I guess I might prefer to choose another one ...

Saltaire in black and white

I thought a few of the Saltaire series might look better in black and white. I've tried it with just this one so far.

Salts Mill

You could almost be in Venice!

I will be posting some photographs of Bradford soon which also show a strong Italianate influence.

lack of recent photos

whoooops!!!!!!!!

I've posted the same photo twice ...

and after not posting for a while ...

and not being able to download onto blogger at the moment ...

I don't know if it is blogger or my computer but it is getting very annoying.

So to try and make up for it there are lots of recent holiday photos here.

Barcelona

I'm so sorry -

I've been on holiday for a week or so with no internet access and then on return my wonderful new wireless network was playing up!

So here's one from Barcelona.
