If you decide to travel along this highway into the bowels of the Universe, carry enough fuel to cover the billions of light years ahead of you. You won't find a place to refuel. When you have travelled this distance without finding anything, not even a little bit of intelligent life and you reach the far reaches of the Universe... don't be scared... there's nothing there, either. Only the "nothing". Or since everything is cyclical, perhaps you have returned to the place where you started, full of wisdom from your long trip. It's probably better to look for intelligent life on Earth, but it's also very likely that you'll have a hard time finding it. Don't worry about not understanding the Universe or the reason for its existence... you're not Einstein, but one day you'll understand that... The Universe is wounded, but it still has infinity ahead of it. It still has you and me. Merry Christmas to all and to the infinite Universe that is within you.
Gregory Alan Isakov - The Universe
Y el Universo está susurrando tan suavemente que puedo oÃrlo todo... el zumbido de los insectos, todos los taxis, todo el cambio gastado de los vagabundos, todos los chicos jugando a la pelota en los callejones. Son sólo pliegues en su vestido. El Universo, está herido, pero aún tiene el infinito por delante. TodavÃa nos tiene a ti y a mÃ. Y todos dicen que es hermoso. Y todos dicen...

Music for your trip to the Universe:
Ground Control to Major Tom. Ground Control to Major Tom. Take your protein pills and put your helmet on. Ground Control to Major Tom (ten, nine, eight, seven, six)... Commencing countdown, engines on (five, four, three)... Check ignition and may God's love be with you (two, one, liftoff...)
Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Parts VI–IX
"Shine On You Crazy Diamond", was written as a tribute to Syd Barrett, one of the founders of Pink Floyd. He was also known as "The Crazy Diamond Syd". Barrett was a very creative musician and is considered one of the rock icons, with a strong influence on many artists, very especially to David Bowie. Syd Barrett is a key piece to understand the evolution of rock in the 70s.. Excessive drug use, especially LSD, caused him serious mental health problems. Syd Barrett died in 2006 at the age of 60. Always shine diamond.
The Universal is a science fiction song written as a tribute to two films by film director Stanley Kubrick. In the video, the Blur members wear outfits similar to Alex and his gang of thugs, the protagonists of the movie "A Clockwork Orange." The image used for the cover of the single alluded to what is possibly Kubrick's best film: "2001: To Space Odyssey."
We haven't changed that much in 300,000 years of evolution.

PS: Electronic - Can't Find My Way Home Just a recommendation. It is important to learn the road signs of the Universe... happy return.
PS: Ground Control to Major Tom. Your circuit's dead, there's something wrong. Can you hear me, Major Tom? Can you hear me, Major Tom? Can you hear me, Major Tom? Can you...
"Here am I floating 'round my tin can, far above the moon. Planet Earth is blue. And there's nothing I can do" (Major Tom)

A classic Nottingham scene, the canal viewed from the Carrington Street bridge.
Nothing special with this photo tbh, just sharing as I very rarely shoot with anything as wide as 35 mm.

Peterborough station on the morning of 10th October. This was taken as I was heading to London, so is a bit out of sequence with some previous shots I've shared. The perils of getting through several films on an adventure.

Spotted parked up in Peterborough a few weeks ago. I did crop this (to remove a white modern car behind this one), but this was the intention when I took the photo. I don't usually crop my images, I do usually straighten slightly.

Interior of an old rotting car lying up in the industrial estate at Barnack. I made use of the "close-up" attachments (extra clip-on lens elements to allow close focussing) for most of this set.

Several boats on the Trent. It's almost entirely pleasure boats these days but must have been a really major transport route back in the day.

Some seats near the gates at Basel-Mulhouse airport.
A bit overexposed I think, tricky to judge these high dynamic range scenes. I always err on the side of 3+ stops over-exposed, I think I could probably relax bit about this all. :-)

A bare tree in a field at Ketton near the quarry. The stuff on the ground near the tree is hay not snow. I imagine the tree will be covered in leaves in a few weeks time.
