Project 25×9, because some photos deserve a wider perspective …

Bringing the week to a close, I’ve saved this shot of the night sky over Skara Brae until this evening. A great accompaniment if (like me) you prefer working after dark through until the small hours on stuff.
I hope you’ve enjoyed this week’s theme. I’ll be back next week with some more photos to share – probably on Tuesday, as Monday is a public holiday here in the UK.

It’s Friday, and the week’s theme is almost done – but not quite, as I’ll have an extra wallpaper late this evening (UK time) to share.
I saw this kite flying in the skies above Dingyshowe Bay on the east coast of Orkney’s Mainland (the main island) at the end of last summer. It looked so alone up there, so far away from everyone and everything.

This week’s theme revolves around things up in the sky.
Just a short walk east along the Thames from the O2 Arena, the south bank quickly becomes very industrial. It’s quite a contrast if (like me) all you really know is central London. But there’s no shortage of planes and helicopters passing overhead

This week’s them revolves around things up in the sky.
Last year, I went down to the far end of the Thames Path, and walked the section from the O2 Dome on the Greenwich Peninsula out to the Thames Barrier. The skyline was dominated by the new cable cars over the Thames. I haven’t been up in them yet … hopefully at some point this summer
