Old duffer with a camera in North Wales, UK, hoping to one day produce something worthwhile. Hiding in plain sight, swimming against the tide in a sea of indifference. LFC.

Bare trees and scattered small buildings appear among the ruins, and a mountain range rises softly in the background under a clear sky.

A group of people wearing RNLI rescue gear walk along a beach near the water’s edge. Four male crew members in matching protective suits and boots move together on the left, a few meters behind two women. One of the women is looking backwards towards the men, the other is in an RNLI high-visibility vest. Waves crash onto the shore in the background on a cloudy day.

Black-and-white photo of a building facade with tall, wild grasses growing on a vertical surface in the foreground. The grasses spill outward in soft, messy clumps, while the background shows smooth walls, rectangular windows, and tree shadows. Black-and-white photo of a set of white metal bike racks arranged in a row along the side of a building. The racks sit in overgrown grass and plants. Partly desaturated image showing a metal construction barrier in front of a white wall and door. Bright orange traffic cones and red-and-white striped poles stand out in colour against the otherwise muted scene. Black-and-white street photo of a person walking across pavement in front of an older brick building with dotted adhesive that once held panels in place, above abd to either side of a door. The person is wearing a hat, coat, skirt, and patterned tights. Signs for a car service and MOT testing station appear on the door of building behind them.

Black-and-white photo of a concrete bridge wall with a triangular height-restriction sign reading ‘10′-3″’. A light is mounted just above the sign, and a large shadow falls diagonally across the textured wall. Colour photo of a weathered concrete barrier with spray-painted graffiti. On the right panel, stencilled text reads ‘LET JESUS CHANGE YOUR STORY.’ On the left panel, a faded white number ‘4’ is painted over rough, moss-stained concrete. Black-and-white photo of a metal pedestrian bridge with decorative lattice railings. Curved handrails run alongside the steps, and neatly trimmed hedges and grass are visible in the background. A close-up view of a broken red wooden railing, splintered where two pieces have separated, attached to a green metal post with visible bolts. The wood shows severe damage and exposed fibers, with surrounding metal bars painted red and green.

Ended my trip around the Northern Eye festival exhibitions in Colwyn Bay by dropping in to Porth Eirias to see "Eyes Open". A great variety of high-quality work it is, too. I couldn't miss the opportunity of making some of my own stuff; here's a small sample.

I wandered around Colwyn Bay to see the street-based exhibits from the Northern Eye photography festival this afternoon, popping off a few shots along the way on my old but fun 9MP Fuji A900 compact. Here are a few of them.

Couple of grab shots on my phone, as we were leaving Pontio in Bangor, after seeing Dr. John Cooper Clarke a couple of nights ago.

Not great quality, but I liked the compositions.

Am I seeing irony that doesn't exist in a painting of John Lennon's face next to a cash machine?

A vibrant, colorful mural painted on a brick wall depicts the face of John Lennon. The mural spans multiple doors and surfaces, blending blues, reds, oranges, and greens. To the right of the mural is a black and green ATM labeled "cash zone" and a sign above it reads "4 Sgt Peppers Apartments" with an arrow pointing left.
