  1. I love the first shot with the sunflare. And you're right about Durham...it is definitely all those things. I'm so glad we could venture out together!

  2. Oh, so cool! I've seen a couple walls like that around town, but never thought to photograph them. Yours turned out great! :-)

  4. The second it my favourite. I love art-walls. Such a nice way to brighten up a wall and discourage ugly tagging
