         		 When I first met 72-year-old Leonard he was dealing with the loss of his mother, whom he had lived with all his life. Finding himself thrown into an unfamiliar situation, he was learning to live on his own while dealing with the ins and outs of domesticity for the first time in his life. Since his mothers passing Leonard has moved back to the farm where he was born, now owned by horticultural machinery specialist Ron Greed, whom Leonard has worked for all his life. Although he is well into his retirement years Leonard still enjoys performing odd jobs around the farm while enjoying his own company and reminiscing of times gone by. Leonard is a fascinating individual, full of stories and knowledge, his home represents a landscape of his memories and past life. I would often find myself listening intently as he recalled his life stories, making the occasional frame when I felt necessary. : by danmariner, Views[816]

         		 The church's gallery now holds a number of beds to accommodate Adrian and his two boys, as well his partner and her two children. Shortly after, it's time for me to leave. I can't help feeling somewhat divided in my opinion of the place. It has the potential to be a beautifully refined home but there's something wonderfully endearing about it as it is. : by holly_peel, Views[428]
         		 As an architect, Adrian has in part been responsible for the conversion from church to home. I get the feeling that nothing much has really progressed since his wife died, although I can't say for sure as it's a topic of conversation understandably best avoided. : by holly_peel, Views[481]
         		 What would have originally been the church's nave is now a games room for Adrian's two boys. The purpose built shed's hold all manner of things, including a substantial collection of Warhammer models. In a church that features stained glass windows painted by the likes of Burne-Jones, the modern one feels somewhat out of place. : by holly_peel, Views[516]
         		 Having entered the church, we congregate in what is now a rather cluttered kitchen. I soon discover it's a trend that runs throughout the building. : by holly_peel, Views[506]
     
    Welcome to Emmanuel House. Formerly Emmanuel Church, it was built in 1828-29 by Robert Chantrell, architect to Leeds at the time. It's here that I first meet Adrian, a lecturer in architecture at Huddersfield University. He extends his hand to greet me and when questioned, talks excitedly about the church he is proud to call home. Having heard so much about him prior to my visit, he's somewhat less quiet and reserved than I was expecting and his friendly mannerisms immediately put me at ease. We enter through the side door because the main entrance is blocked. : by holly_peel, Views[829]
         		 Six minutes later they decided to leave. The gentleman gave one last look at the shell before they left.: by nickimben, Views[302]
         		 Upon reaching the path they sat down on this bench, but instead of looking towards the beach and the sea they faced inwards, turning their backs to the sculpture and the water.: by nickimben, Views[273]
         		 The metal shell stands out on the horizon. An old couple were walking away from it as I arrived.: by nickimben, Views[290]
         		 From the car park, this wooden structure leads the way, showing the hint of the beach beyond it.: by nickimben, Views[348]
     
    This path runs from Sizewell to Alderburgh seperating the beach from the road. : by nickimben, Views[283]
         		 As I think upon these wonders, it's safe to say to expect the unexpected!: by julia_travels, Views[310]
         		 This year, nature decided to snow in Spring. As I reflect back at these pictures from last year, I am reminded how nothing is quite what it seems. Spring in snow and snow in Spring. I wonder again what it means and how I can gain access to the insight and understanding. : by julia_travels, Views[367]
         		 Last year, when these pictures were taken, Spring was blooming in the snow in February. Nature continues to inspire me, leaving me in awe at how many seasons of Spring we saw last year. Flowers appeared to bloom nearly all year round. For me this reflects something special, it reflects blessings.: by julia_travels, Views[356]
         		 Looking down into this place I notice another gate. Looking from this perspective I can see even more the intimacy of this place and again, I wonder how I can be there. This place is Churchill Gardens.: by julia_travels, Views[600]
     
    Looking into the Garden of Eden. The gate is locked and I want to go in. Wondering what I need to do gain entry to this peaceful place.: by julia_travels, Views[309]
         		 Greenwich Park - Time is something that brings the whole world togehter. Time started because of travel...we travel today because we know what time to catch a train or flight. We are all connected because of time. Greenwich is one of the places where the international dateline passes through. In all this unity, it's important to define one's own path...regardless of what the others follow. Ergo, the above picture depicts the chosen path. Is it right? Or wrong? Only adventure has the answer.: by subranu, Views[794]
         		 Brick Lane: brick lane is a must visit if you're in london. The place is lively with many indian restaurants, spanish restaurants and italian restaurants. It's colourful and exciting. It's mostly known for it's beautiful street art. The one above is an illustration of such. It hit me personally because as it may be street art to one's eye...it's something more profound to another. The door and the windows are painted with bright colours, leaving what's inside to be a dark secret. Kind of like most of our personalities...we all show happiness but share those dark, sad moments with those who only have a key to our door.: by subranu, Views[1241]
         		 The London Tube - the london tube transports people within the city. The city is a big one. The tube not only blends cultures through the means of people, but also music. If it's not someone taping away to the beats of the song playing through his ear phones, it's the people playing their violins at guitars at the tube stations. Many people think the tube is morbid and mundane. But look closely and observe people...many of them are touritsts, travelers, musicians, business men, students, teachers...a blend of all common professions and passions.: by subranu, Views[1270]
         		 Ice and Fire - the one thing that holds common for all cultures from across the world is basic human emotions. Without emotions, one culture cannot understand the other.Emotions are good and bad...a blend of the cold and the hot...the ice and the fire.: by subranu, Views[1020]
     
    Paddington Station, London - Travel to many people means many different things. To me, it's all about culture. London, in general, is city with diverse cultures and ethnicities. And Paddington is a place where you are bound to come across people from all over: Indians, Germans, French, Italian, Spanish, Welsh and so on.: by subranu, Views[992]
