As in all my work, it begins one way but then it ends somewhere not too far...

Another to add to my ongoing portrayal of characters: The Pilgrim/prophet

Thinking about the many celebrations at this time of year: harvest, Day of the Dead, All Saints, autumn...

The bricks and mortar of Toledo, its streets and a bridge.

Not sure where I took these photographs, but I do like them now!

In 2019, Leonardslee Lakes & Gardens opened its doors after a closure of nine years, this magnificent Grade I listed garden was nearly lost forever and has been the subject of the largest garden restoration in England and possibly Europe. These spectacular and ancient gardens are now open for the public to enjoy once again. Many people in the local area have fond memories of their visits and life around these gardens, and we aim to protect this magnificent heritage so that future generations get to enjoy these beautiful green spaces and flora and fauna within.

A UNESCO Wold Heritage festival Inevitably it is necessary to give a historical perspective of this yearly festival that takes place in the city of La Paz, Bolivia. The celebration transforms and stimulates the social life of La Paz every year, emanating from a particular way of understanding and living Andean Catholicism. The Parade begins with a procession through the western part of the city. This procession is central to the event, involving 40,000 devotees who dance and sing in an offering to the patron saint. The dance has a sacred significance for the sixty-nine fraternities involved, which are greeted in the streets in a euphoric atmosphere where the music of 7,000 musicians resonates. It is so owe inspiring that it is rightfully a UNESCO Wold Heritage event (Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity). The image venerated with dance and music is arrived in the city at the founding of the convent of the Mothers of the Sacred Conception on the 8th of December 1664
