From the archives, November 2003. I've been doing some spring cleaning, and I found several disks of pics from my trip to Asia a few years ago. These pictures were taken with a film camera.

Ever seen bamboo scaffolding? I hadn't before this trip. That's what scaffolding is made out of there in Hong Kong. It seems like a really expensive construction material, but I guess there it's not.

More at alapan.

The Dutch pavilion adressed the problem of how old forms of opera are old. This would, indeed, be a problem if there were not newer forms of opera.

The installation also included framed copies of it's own reviews, adding to the self-referentiality.

Scaffolding is a temporary structure used to support people and material in the construction or repair of buildings and other large structures. It is usually a modular system of metal pipes or tubes, although it can be made out of other materials. Bamboo is frequently used in some Asian countries, like the People's Republic of China.

This was a day when Dennis got the better shots, despite my best efforts.

Scaffolders training under the shadows of the cooling towers at Ratcliffe-on-soar power station. I was here this week on a High Voltage switching course.

Luckily I took this photo over a week before I needed it for 7DOS - no chance of taking photos in the sun today!

I liked the patterns and repetition of `3's'. Seen in the streets of Oxford.

The scaffolding next door.

There is going to be double story extension and we'll have even more bricks to look at! So I'll be planting some trees to soften the view.

The base of Shakespeare Tower is surrounded by scaffolding, protecting passers-by below, while abseilers investigate reports of bits falling off the building.

I hate this but this will stay for 2 month.
