Metro Series 1: #7

St Pauls, Birmingham

A correspondent (hi John) has pointed out that this is not St Pauls, it is a building visible from St Pauls Metro Station. This is, of course, perfectly true. Mostly the convention that I had adopted was to simply name the station nearest to the location of the picture. This I conceded may be confusing. I shall ensure that subsequent pictures are better labelled.

Metro Series 1: #1

I took a walk, following as closely as possible the route of the Metro from Birmingham towards West Bromwich, taking pictures of each station and of things visible from the station or from the tram as it goes between stations. The quality of the results is variable. I was using a cheap, pocket-sized Hitachi camera and frankly I'm rather disappointed with it. Still, here's the first.

Birmingham Snow Hill Metro station.

The day before this picture was taken we drove off the side of this bridge in heavy rain. We were very lucky not to get killed.

I have absolutely no idea what this is. I found it on a beach at the Manuel Antoni National Park. Any identification of it will be gratefully acknowledged.

Lake Arenal, Costa Rica


The whiteness to the right isn't a flaw in the photography, it was a mist that rolled in over the lake and blotted out the view.

This was our overnight accommodation. We were unable to camp at our planned site and found this after a lot of driving. It was a school where they let us camp in the grounds.
