Cambridge Marathon Main Runners

15,000 people took part in the Cambridge Half Marathon on Sunday in very overcast conditions. Here a few shots of the leading group (Nick, 2nd here, was the final winner) and then as the runners come up the Barton Road from Cambridge - a real stream of humanity.

Rainy Shopping in the Hull

The wet conditions on Friday gave some great photographic opportunities with the lights from the shops etc  reflecting on pavements and the umbrellas.

Cambridge 'Shops'

Walking round Cambridge on Wednesday between 4 and 6pm, we were surprised how few shoppers there were and even the now abundant eating places were not busy. It will be iinteresting to see how many of these premises arre still under the same ownership next year and what colours M&S favour.

Shadows, Cycles and People in Cambridge

Very contrasty light this morning for my walk from the Park and Ride to the City centre. The low sun gave long shadows and bright rim lighting. 

Bristol 2. Amphitheatre and Millennium Square

I finished my walk around Bristol at the Amphitheatre (built in 1993 as Lloyds Bank HQ) and the Millennium Square area with its fountains and mirrored sphere. Good to see all types of transport have been thought about when designing the roads and pavements.
