Under the towers

This was taken in a small grubby room at the end of a walkway underneath towering silos
it was an old brewery in Italy and this particular morning the place was bathed in an orange glow from the sunrise

Mosaic

This was one of the houses on our short trip of Italy
I wasnt really prepared for the interior of the grand looking mansion on the top of a hill
but the whole 1st level was room upon room of intricate mosaic filled splendour
there were rooms all in white, colour and everything in between

Bath Time

Abandoned villa in Italy

The Counting machine

An old totalling machine found in the offices of an abandoned textile factory

His Masters Voice

Texture, textures everywhere in this room, from teh green mold and peeling paint of the walls to the record player with its ornate tonearm and exquisite detailing

Colours in my photos have been rare of late, I have tended to tone images down but this one definitely needed it.
This was also edited on my new Surface Pro 3, which is starting to redefine the way I edit my photos, but I will get to that later…

Micro Landscapes

This is fresh from a post christmas outing today
although it looks like a night scene, this was a very underexposed image of a shaft of sunlight in a derelict brickworks
lots of bricks with moss and plants growing in between them just caught the light at the right time and it came out like this

Dwelling

One of the reasons that Star Wars doesnt look like its dated is that they took traditional looking architecture and inspiration from the native surrounds of Tunisia and then added futuristic looking doors and computer panels to this
It was actually really interesting seeing these up close, what looked like randomly attached pipes and circuit boards but when you see it on the film, it really works giving the scenes an otherworldly futuristic but also old world feel to them
