Tag: Photo of the Week

Every week I’ll upload a photo that captures my mood. Or just a photo that I love.

Photo Of The Week: Pike Place Market, Seattle

April 3, 2011

At the end of the my three month trip around America, my last stop was the wonderful city of Seattle, in the North West. I stayed with family friends for two weeks, and one afternoon we headed into the city to wander around Pike Place Market, one of the oldest continually operated public farmers’ markets … More Photo Of The Week: Pike Place Market, Seattle

Photo Of The Week: Siena Duomo

March 13, 2011

In the summer of 2009 I visited Italy with my family and just like last year we went to Siena for an evening, to see the sights and sit at one of the many restaurants in the Piazza del Campo. While we were there we ventured over to the other side of the city to … More Photo Of The Week: Siena Duomo

Photo Of The Week: The Eden Project, Cornwall

February 27, 2011

Last year, just before Christmas (2009), I went to the Eden Project with some friends to go ice skating and generally wander around. I’d never been before, even after living in Cornwall for 3 years, so was curious to see what all the fuss was about…I think it definitely lived up to the hype. It … More Photo Of The Week: The Eden Project, Cornwall

Photo Of The Week: The Belfort, Bruges

February 20, 2011

Last Easter I went to Belgium with my family, and we stayed in Antwerp, which was brilliant, full of lovely restaurants and cultural sights. But for me, the best bit of the weekend was our day trip to Bruges (where the film In Bruges is set), where we traipsed around endless chocolate shops and visited … More Photo Of The Week: The Belfort, Bruges

Photo Of The Week: Gylly Beach, Falmouth

February 13, 2011

Falmouth is my home. At least for now anyway. And the best part about living here is that as soon as the sun comes out and the weather warms up, everyone heads straight to the beach. I took this photo last summer, and for me it represents everything I love about Cornwall, with its sunny … More Photo Of The Week: Gylly Beach, Falmouth

Photo of the Week: Piazza del Campo, Siena

January 23, 2011

I’ve been to Siena a few times now, and I’m always astounded by its beauty. The architecture is incredible, and one day I hope to be there to witness the Palio, the horse race that takes place in the Piazza del Campo, where this photograph was taken.

Photo of the Week: Paris Skyline

January 16, 2011

Last September I went with a friend to Paris for a few days, to see the sights and a band called ‘Stars’. On our second day there we went up the Eiffel Tower to get a look at the city from above. I love the way the contrast of the sun versus the clouds illuminates … More Photo of the Week: Paris Skyline

Photo of the Week: A Mauritian Sunset

January 9, 2011

This was honestly one of the most beautiful sunsets I think I’ve ever seen, taken over the South Pool at the Sugar Beach Resort in Mauritius just after Christmas. The way the sun’s orange rays broke away and up through the clouds was just amazing, illuminating the whole sky.
