A nice old Daimler, of all things, spotted on a street in Holyhead/Caergybi recently.

What’s all this Holyhead stuff about? What am I about? It’s all here: bio.site/robertlaw

For his presentation, he spoke mainly about his NY work, but his timeline also touched on his return to the UK and receiving commissions from you at Tatler.

We also had a good personal chat about his practice afterwards and I talked about my visit to Oxford Brookes, which closed the loop nicely.

I’m doing a fair amount of cycling. But photography takes over when passing seductive new topographics! My phone is always to hand.

Yes, I caught up on quite of few of Grant (and Bill’s) podcasts on a long drive to Norfolk last week. The discussion on landscape photography was from an unconventional angle and highly recommended!

Azores Brutalism | Monte Palace Hotel.

Built in the right place at the wrong time, the Monte Palace Hotel operated for just 18 months in the late 80s at the rim of the crater of the Sete Cidades Massif, overlooking the crater lakes.
