2014 moments #8
I would like to share my 10 most memorable photographs of the past year over the coming days with you. These are shots that I am particularly proud of, while each evokes a sense of place and meaning from 2014.
LONER IN THE GALLERY
This is a glimpse into one of London’s grand, stately homes – a dazzling Gothic pile called Strawberry Hill House. It’s a photograph that captures the sumptuous architecture of it gallery and the order of a row of chairs set out at the end of this room. The surprise – which I didn’t notice when taking the shot – is the shoes of a volunteer guide on the right hand side, seated for a moment between visitors.

Beautiful shot Mike, love the rich colours. I wouldn’t have noticed the shoes if you hadn’t pointed them out :-)

Thank you Claire and a Happy New Year! Usually I would have cursed the shoes for mucking up the shot, but in this case they lend a bit of a story to this photograph.

Indeed they do Mike, I thought subtle but as you say a story to feed the imagination. Happy New Year to you too.

Sumptuous is the word that comes to mind with a titillating glimpse of the ornate ceiling.

Thank you Lee. Ah, yes, the glimpse of ceiling as opposed to the pair of clodhoppers!
