The View from the 7th Floor

Finished the last session of a photo shoot at work today. Not the most inspiring piece of photography – corporate headshots of the Children’s service leadership team – but it’s been a nice break from staring at a computer screen.

While waiting for people who really didn’t want to have their picture taken, I snapped this. Apart form the grime on the windows, it shows quite nicely just how varied the architecture of Leeds is. You can see both Leeds Met and the University of Leeds (or as people round here tend to call it, the real university!)

Wall of Sound

A place I walk every week on my way to work has recently undergone a bit of a facelift. Metal plates with song lyrics have been placed on either side of the subway to create ‘walls of sound’ as part of an art installation.

I don’t know how long it will stay, but I quite like it. It makes that dreary trudge to the office at 7am just a little bit more bearable.
