Nice Photos.

Most of us have taken one or two nice photos.

Here is my candidate as being almost quite good. In fact it is two painstakingly joined.

Taken up in the mountain at Skurdalsvatn in 2000.

Though this one takien in Warsaw in November 2006 is not bad:

I know there are several good photgraphers here, and it would be nice to see some of you best efforts if you feel inclined to share!

Nice one Graeme, we nipped over there to look at the V&A progress on Boxing Day and I went and had another look last month. Frustrating that the original plan is going to be spoiled by another building that will ruin all the sight lines!!

Thanks...I have a different view Steve but one that is too laborious to discuss here. As a member of the selection panel to choose Kuma-san as the architect in 2014 I'm delighted to see it as a realised building for the first time today.

I'm delivering an oration at his award of an honorary degree next week - most humbling I have to say. It's a great building.

I don't wish to take the thread off topic any longer but I will say just that it will be interesting to see what the final Tay front vista will look like. The V&A building in isolation is an interesting and arresting piece of architecture and we will all be very interested to see how the exhibits work internally with natural light provided by the design.
