Staring up at this building on Oxford Street in London back in September, I found the window design particularly pleasing for some reason.

Here’s another piece of art adorning a panel of the remnants of the Berlin Wall, along what’s now known as the East Side Gallery. Captured this back in September.

This fella looks as if he could be a character come alive from the NFB animated video of the Canadian folk song The Log Driver’s Waltz, but he’s really quite far from turn-of-the-20th-century Canada. This specimen is overlooking a canal by Kampa Island in Prague.

Happened to come across this very colourful pillar while wandering down a quiet street in London’s Soho neighbourhood back in September. There appeared to be no obvious reason for the decoration … but then again, who really needs one?

I love this structure at King’s Cross station in London. There’s something soothing about the curvy lattice … although I couldn’t tell you why, exactly.

These “wind trees” are installed on Stephen Avenue in Calgary, between 2 and 3 St. S.W. near Bankers Hall and The Core shopping centre, to help reduce the wind tunnel effect from all the tall buildings in the area. They’re current lit in seasonal colours.

There are a lot of shiny, modern trams plying the streets of Prague … and yet by utter fluke, the ones I captured with my cameras during my visit there this fall were all of the vintage variety. Here are two more.
