The Saving Grace of Seeing?

Wandering about streets aimlessly, appeals & possible lives are lurking behind every corner. But on this site you will not find impressions of bustling city life.
Merely some of its traces, and accidental forms & patterns & shafts of light. And maybe a few angels, overlooking it all with powerless sympathy.

"Distractions fit, lost in a shaft of sunlight"  

Light & the City    Who's afraid of Angels?     Luminous hues of Gray     Don't know much about Geometry

Darkness Visible    Classical Longings    On the Water-front    Ripples & Reflections    Interiors

The World at Dusk    Accidental Shapes     Encounters with Publicity    The Romance of Trains

Chasing Shadows    A Passion for Pavements    Venice in Winter

Transience     Vanity    A Sleepy Rhythm    Even more train stuff


Looking for Red


Some words to track down the flâneur

Some fragments of a reluctant stroll

By way of apology for classical longings
