Evocative Images

It's rare of me to save an image to my computer. Here are some that inspired the right-click shimmy.

The Northern Lights in Scandinavia - a sight you'd have to travel into remote terrain to capture, not to mention being in the right place at the right time



Multi-tasking gone too far, and the need to confront being over-involved with things that don't matter as much as others


Dubbed 'The greatest political commentator of a generation' by the senior advisor of his opponent, here's Mr. Eloquent... I will hopefully be writing about him in the near future


A Calatrava (de)construction



Yes, there is postmodern architecture in Africa too, if this little gem from Accra, Ghana is anything to go by


An Istanbul Scene


Chongqing Panorama - the inspiring skyscape of somewhere I've never been and likely never will be


Imagine what palettes remain to be discovered in Helsingor, Denmark


Trees in Madagascar


'James Bond Island' in Phuket, Thailand


Where else but Shanghai can you find architecture inspired by the two most popular musical instruments?


I stole this from a website, possibly dedicated to European design


A proposed building (for which city? I don't know)


A slice of the Swiss Alps, by Lars Karbe


'A Weird Place' courtesy of SkyScraperCity.com




Postmodern shop name in London, taken by Benji Holzman


This was my desktop background for a while


Barack Obama street art in the USA


'One of a Kind' art piece

Just my kind of world, there are some wonderful and meaningful images here, a feast of colour and curves and lines, just a few of my favourite things, well done.
