Continuing my walk around the city to find interesting patterns and architecture, I was up by the Cathedral, where there are lots of patterns in the stonework.
Leaves made some lovely shadow patterns on the paving.
More granite setts caught my eye.
As did the brickwork and the grill on this window.
A stone archway with its crenellations.
Looking down some steps through another arch. I do like an arch!
Lots of lovely patterns of more arches, windows, panes of glass, brickwork, and mouldings.
This dome is on a very run-down, but architecturally interesting building.
This pattern of fallen plaster against the brick caught my eye too.
As did this Art Deco inspired decoration.
These small mosaic tiles were in a very unprepossessing doorway.
I liked the rounded bay windows and the griffin/gryphon decoration on this building. The more I looked at this one, the more I noticed, like the little stone canopy under the round window.
This fabulous stone work was above a bank doorway.
Even the railway lines have some interesting curved and straight lines and patterns. I was quite surprised by how many things caught my eye and these two posts are just a fraction of the photos I took. I really enjoyed seeing bits of the city in a new way!














Photography can certainly open your eyes to things you wouldn't ordinarily notice. I like the railway tracks, I think it must be how orderly they are, haha.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jo. It's interesting that when you are consciously looking for patterns, ordinary things like railway tracks suddenly attract attention!

I thought I had already commented on this but I'm enjoying the patterns a second time. Have a fun week, Ellie.

Thanks, Amalia. You did indeed comment on part one - this is part two! I took lots of photos on my walk but have chosen my favourites for these two posts. Have a good week too.
