A couple of photos

[ewx]

This is where I work. If you arrive in Cambridge by train then it's one of the earlier buildings you see, which is frankly a crime in a place like this. There seem to be plans to redevelop the area, though I'm not sure how far they extend, but we can only hope that any future replacements will look interesting without the benefit of artfully chosen viewpoints.

This church is a bit up the road from work; it could really do with a clean (perhaps unsurprisingly since it's on one of Cambridge's busier roads), which is a pity from an aesthetic point of view, but as a silhouette you can't really tell.

The church is pretty. The office block however continues to be ugly even from the interesting vantage point.

I think the office-block photo is *fantastic*. It's totally the kind of photo I'd love to be taking myself...

A couple of nice shots. I actually quite like those buildings on Station Road, but then, I'm a bit odd...

Wow - you managed to make nCipher look interesting and moderately attractive.

*ahem* sorry, is my cynicism showing..

No, dammit! I clicked the the "Don't autoformat" button!

"autoformat" = turn \n into <br> (and I think it spots hyperlinks). The form really expects HTML.
