Riding home

Posted on by Curious Lines Leave a comment

This August my friend and I decided to ride our bikes up north and see where it would get us. We made it as far as Yukon and Northwest territories. Having been short on time and inadequatly equipped to fight the cold weather knocking at the door, we had to turn back at some point. The picture was taken on our way back to British Columbia from, as they call it, spectacular Northwest territories. This is my friend’s bike, I was riding the very same bike with one slight difference; my packing was an absolute mess in comparison to this.

Always together

This is not a new picture on this site by any means as these two have been peering out of you screens every time you visited this modest corner on the mighty internet. I caught this in Paris by the famous Sacré-Cœur basilica. This is one of my few pics that I actually really like but you probably have guessed it by now as it always hangs above all the others. This is also the first of my pics that I ever saw in print and its copy now hangs in the library at my university.

St. Stephen’s Basilica

St. Stephen’s Basilica is one of the most recognizable buildings in Budapest after its famous striking parliament. It was also one of the first things I went to see after moving there. My introduction to the city sorta speak!
There is a nice view onto the city if you climb the stairs all the way up. But I’ll save that for another post:)

Palette of emotions

Posted on by Curious Lines Leave a comment

This week has been a little off in terms of posting. I’ve been posting almost everyday during the weekdays except for friday, the day I usually post. So I’ll be making up for it by a late sunday evening post.

This is Thomas from one of the best bands in the city, Sons of Granville. They’re really good live and I would definitely recommend their stuff. I was on my way home when I saw them busking on the street so I stopped for a few minutes to say hi and take a few pics. I like shooting them because they are very passionate about what they do and it evidently comes out through the expression of their faces and their body language. Most of my shots that day were of Thomas and I couldn’t really pick one so I decided to do what you see below. (Click on the pic to enlarge or download a slightly bigger version)

An afterthought

Posted on by Curious Lines Leave a comment

I’ve been on fire this week posting every single day, so I thought I should keep it going. Yesterday’s post included a picture of a bagpiper and as an afterthought my mind went wondering and Scotland is where it stopped. This is a back alley in Glasgow. Far from being the most interesting picture to be taken in this wonderful city. But I still like it and find the scene cosy and green, very reflective of the city itself.
