Right now, I am hauled up in my West London flat, having been excused from work on account of a nasty case of Optic Neuritis that has totally messed up the sight in my right eye. I’m popping enough pills to have made Hunter S. Thompson take note and trying to fight off the horrendous…

No one is busy in this world
I didn’t post anything last week as I was in Greece for their Orthodox Church’s Easter celebrations – of which I will write about soon. I took around 1,000 photographs and am currently weeding my way through the best of them. Until then, here are the travel notices from Camden Road station this week. You…
Hope and fear
Here are the travel notices for this particularly sodden April week in London. Enjoy the weekend.
A Kind of Compulsion
When I started photographing the street-art around London (particularly in Camden Town) I had no idea that I would be so busy at it. It’s a labour of love and I’m frequently impressed by the level of creativity shown by the artists. These new pieces by Autone1, Reb.MWC, DRT and Trust Icon have appeared almost…
Street Art mini-gallery
The street-artists of Greater London have been busy this weekend. I spotted new works in Soho, Camden and Notting Hill (It was a busy weekend for me too). Here are the best pieces I found.

The street-art scene in Camden Town is developing so rapidly these days that keeping up with the enormous number changes that occur in the area each week has become an almost full-time occupation. The rate at which new artworks are being installed and older pieces painted over has never been so high. As any one…
This week in travel notices
One of the guy’s who writes these each morning caught me taking a photograph during the Thursday rush hour. I explained that I post these pictures on the site and he seemed quite flattered. He thanked me for paying attention. No, said I, thank you. I now have a “Reddit” share button. It would be…
Brightening up the urban experience
These illustrations by 19 year old, Russian born, British Higher School of Art and Design student Moleculahowl have been in place (on the coverings of a row of electricity meters) on Camden Road for at least the last 2 months. Strangely, it doesn’t look as though anyone has posted any pictures of the pieces online…
