Sometimes there are unexpected discoveries that happen when you least expect them. I was in the Vauxhall area of London recently and was wandering around the Oval cricket ground hoping to find something interesting to shoot. I never really did and I decided I'd had enough of the area and wanted to move on. The Oval tube station was nearby so that seemed a good place to make my escape from. Imagine my surprise when I passed through the barriers and came across these absolutely fabulous art deco styled uplighters gracing the escalators.
I am continually harassed by security guards these days so I knew it probably wouldn't be long before I was told to move on. But I did manage 5 or 6 shots. I would have hoped for a single person on one of the escalators but that never happened in the short time I was there. But as Arnie famously said - I'll be back!

It was the end of a mid-summer color-filled evening.
A summer classic. A joy to see. Thanks for looking.

Every sunset is different, because every day; sun
is different, clouds are different, space is different,
reflections are different....mountains are different,
fogs are different, and above all, we are different.
― Mehmet Murat ildan
Sunsets are proof; that no matter what
happens...every day can end beautifully.

A very commonly photographed spot, I haven't been here for a while and with the approaching storm I figured I would have a slim chance for some nice uplighting.

*[Each year at this time the Sahara Sands move west across the warm
Atlantic Ocean and end up high in the atmosphere over South Florida.
It tends to make our sunsets more 'intense' and 'vivid' for a few weeks,
until the stronger tropical hurricane season wind moves it out for good.]

Municipal Theatre, Napier, Hawke's Bay, New Zealand
It is Art Deco weekend this weekend in Napier, where the whole town celebrates it's Art Deco heritage.
So here is an Art Deco light which is on the side of the Municipal Theatre
...and a lovely time of the evening to wander the streets of down-town Mount Gambier in South Australia. This is our old town hall complex, with wonderful pavement based uplighting throwing wonderful light and shadows on the old sandstone.

This was our last night on the ship as we were steaming NW directly toward the Florida Coast, and the sunset in the west was directly ahead of the bow. Almost as if the captain pointed the ship directly at the setting sun! A magical sunset at sea developed. Magnificent! And we were headed straight at it! Was pretty windy, but absolutely incredible for the dozen or so of us out on the bow witnessing this. A truly awesome sea-sunset. Spectacular! Thank you for looking.
